[silverstinger]

@LittleDwarve

Of course not... This was My first AMV!

[siddtheCidd]

@LittleDwarve robotech??? or should i say what would become robotech after it got amercanized?

[goheen1701]

Prior to 'Yamato:Rebirth' and 2010's live action movie, there WERE 3 other movies made. Just look on youtube- they're NOT hard to find...

[cydonianman]

1:00 got that as a wallpaper

[zmdmcgregor]

Before Robotech came along this was by far my favorite tech/mecha futuristic cartoon! I dreamed of being like Wild Star a space fighter pilot! This would make a great movie! Bring it back!

[Warhamsterxxx]

The battle cruisers in Starcraft featured the Yamato gun. Testament that this cartoon had cultural influence that crossed oceans.

[jeffbiggles]

use to watch this everyday at 5pm afterschool,a great cartoon,the best i think.should be made into a movie on the big screen.

[silverstinger]

Search Youtube for: Starblazers / Space Battleship Yamato Movie 2009 - Promo Trailer

Long Live Yamato!

[kthao05]

there were 5 old movies (in the 70s and/or 80s) and one new movie (in 2009). Also lots of FMV sequences, which had better animation than the 70s versions, from various computer games

[shraunbone]

@jeffbiggles These were on at 7am before school where I lived. I remember watching it and then talking about it with my friends before school. I loved that show.

[MrReneManuel]

@kamoteburst Yes on the "Memory Lane".

[rufusman2008]

It was the same here in Florida. I'd get up real early to watch it b4 school. I haven't seen this since I like 8 or 9 I too have a soft spot for this show. It was what got me hooked on anime. Great story.

[razed1022]

Your right about the early. It came on at 6am in Washington

[speaking55]

Wow, i love you guys. i never use the internet these days (when I can avoid it; post 9/11). but this is great. i used to watch this shit when i was 3 years old. but in NY it was on at like, 6am or something. maybe i'll start loggin back on more often. (or maybe not). but i got tears in my eyes. thanks to whatever electronic kid put this shit up. you made my day. signing off from china, of all places. go figure.

[queenstarsha]

I used to run home to watch this with my brother, and fight with my sis cause she wanted to watch crappy Flintstones! ^_^ Starblazers is and always will be my FAV anime!

[mrbird00]

This anime is called "Space battleship YAMATO" originally created by Reiji Matsumoto, a Japanese animator. Yamato was taken from a real battleship that existed and built in WWII to fight with America. No wonder why American changed the original title to the weird name, "Starblazers".

[pjnjs]

It is sad they changed it yes, but the Argo wasn't random... it was after Jason and the Argonauts...

[jerry8802184]

The other thing particular to American vs. Japanese style is that American versions of some Japanese works feature the human characters as the heroes while the Japanese showcase the inanimate hardware as the "stars". Case in point: The American song is about "Starblazers" vs. the original Japanese song singing "Yamato". Also, The Speed Racer theme is all about Speed Racer himself while the Japanese song is about the Mark 5 (his car). I'd be interested other Japanese comment on this.

[CityHunter769]

In Japanese culture, we always held the Battleship Yamato as something special, and alive...

[Cybertronrefugee]

It was changed because at the time, the late 70s, the execs felt that American audiences wouldn't warm up to Space Battleship Yamato. The change was also due to the Huge success of Star Wars. They wanted to ride that proverbial wave. The great thing about Star Blazers is that unlike many port overs, it did not stray far from it's original form. There are the name changes a a few cut scenes for American censors, but in all, the story remained as deep in it's American form as it was in Japan.

[godofcomedy2]

wow that wasn't that bad

[Neboolosa]

Thank you!

Yamato forever!

[Bytorfan]

For me the show was on at 7:00am...and my school bus came at 7:15am...i have no clue how many times i hadda walk to school because of that show.(but im sure my mom could name each and every day) LOL...Long live Captain Avatar !!! DIE...Leader Deslok ! (sorry guys i hate him)

[pilarcereza]

I used to watch Starblazers every day after school too. The Yamato is the coolest space ship ever! In Argentina its name was VIAJE A LA ULTIMA GALAXIA ! Tks . Regards

[Argo2Eternal]

Nicely done. Star Blazers is older than me. I was fortunate enough to have been introduced to it a few years ago. Liked it very much. Loved the Argo. Loved this show. Thanks for posting.

[fatcat508]

love it tk

[jsbigcatlover]

I used to watch Starblazers every day after school. The Yamato is the coolest space ship ever!

[silverstinger]

I totally agree with you... I remember running home from school every day just to arrive in time to watch it! I just wish they made a live action movie out of the Iscandar Voyage ;)

[crazyJEEG]

A live action show done faithfully can better represent the original series. I doubt either will ever be made, and if it is, will never please the fans;)

[Maciekjestbos]

thx man!

[Maciekjestbos]

what is the title of this music?

[silverstinger]

The title of this music is: «Eternal Conflict».

As you can all see, the title fits the footage perfectly! Hehe ;D

[chamo831]
