Space Battleship "Yamato" Ep02 (3/3)

[sibainutarou1]

デスラーの肌の色ｗ

[Kerorofan1990]

Wow...i just learned history from an anime. Cool.

[ekul1021]

What a sad ending for the Yamato, too bad she is now broken in two otherwise space yamato would have been reality.

[Commiton]

Watched this series after my Air Force enlistment ended in 1979 with my Grandmother. My first Japanese animation. It was 1995 or 6 before I saw more. This time my own children brought in "Slayers" [Lena Inverse] and many more. But "Space Battleship Yamato" was the first. Salute the brave crew of Space Battleship Yamato!!! ;)

[forcelexus]

FUCKING JAPS dammit! WE SHALL BOMB ON TO TOKIO SOME DAY.

[Kurururules489]

@forcelexus trolololololololololol 

[BensonChu24]

this was the part that was actually cut from the American Star Blazers series

[Exilninja]

Haha, he says that they only had enough fuel for a one way trip, but a Japanese commander actually loaded Yamato with enough fuel to get to Okinawa and back.

[speed150mph]

@Exilninja no he didnt, had the yamato survived the voyage there, andc survived the attacking the american and british armada at okinawa, her orders were for her captain to run her aground on okinawa and, with her array of weapons including 18" guns, become a costal battery to defend the island from invasion. if a japanese commander had disobayed the order, which is doubtful, he would have been called a trator, executed, and his family would be shamed for raising a coward.

[Exilninja]

@speed150mph

No you ignorant Wikipedia using arsehole, start using other than Wiki facts. Yamato was attempted to be loaded with enough fuel to withdraw if need be, but fuel reserves were so low, she might not even had made it back. Many naval commanders of the IJN were not as suicidal as their army counterparts. In fact, many of them rejected the idea of wasting the world's largest battleship as a kamikaze ship.

[speed150mph]

@Exilninja look whos ignorant. i didnt use wikipedia. i used books like history of airpower ww2, which goes into great detail about how the yamato departed and how it was totally demolashed by US hell divers and avengers. and im sure the japenese navy, who sacraficed the last of their carriers, the backbone of their navy, as a diversion to lure Halsey's battleships from the philippines so they could attack the landing force at leyte, could use the yamato as a kamakazi attack.

[Exilninja]

@speed150mph

Lmfao, no. Your original point was that "No they didn't load up with fuel", and because I backed it up, you changed the subject, and STILL FAILED TO BE HISTORICALLY ACCURATE. Japan had carriers, cruisers, Yamato and Nagato left, but not the fuel to use them. The Japanese naval commanders actually initially disagreed with the operation, such as Atsushi Oi and Seichi Ito, saying that "Japan should stop caring about the honour of it's 'surface fleet'".

[speed150mph]

@Exilninja my point was not to change the subject but to make the point THE JAPENESE WERE DESPERATE. they did not have the resources to operate the navy. if they sacraficed their precious carriers that they valued so much, what difference did it make commiting the yamato to a suicide attack. they knew the time of the battleship was over, they knew she was of little real use in this new war, she was obsolete. there was no real other use for unless as a carrier escort to be bombed.

[Hesuku]

@speed150mph Japan was desperate but also very religious; Senkan Yamato's setting out was not altogether suicidal. Yamato was the very last hope of Japan, which means they were hoping for a "miracle" like, American fleet being wiped out by a storm or something. I think what happened to Dommel's space force was something they were dreaming about. As we know in history, villains' wish does not come true, at least not for a long term.

[Hesuku]

It was a tragedy for both Germany and Japan that they kept winning in the beginning; it really tricks one to believe he is super-naturally invincible or something. That also becomes a real test for one's conscience. While winning, can we treat losers or the subject humanely? The answer was no for Germany and Japan. They needed eternal foreign forces to halt their non-stop evil advances.

[Hesuku]

I mean "external foreign forces."

[BigTex541]

The Yamato was discovered in 1982, and confirmed in 1984.

[verbatumverbotten]

148,000 light years? I hope that ship is fast.

[galloway6204]

Dont listen to 0:40 with headphones in!!! I swear it turns your brain to jelly!

[ajctrading]

IMHO the people on both sides who engage in the fighting and dying in wars have more in common with each other than the power elites (politicians, big buisness, milit. industrial complex) who start the wars

[Maetel22]

@ajctrading amen dude

[acepilot1997]

350 something planes not 1,000. 1,000 collectively, but at the battle of samar, 350+.

[trelayna]

you can see Kodai's animosity towards Okita, because of his brother. Interesting how his attitude changes at the end. (in Final Yamato he silently calls Okita his father)

[kingleungm]

wow is it neccessary with all these political bullshit ....just watch the anime dudes

[socomsix19]

@Inmango "unforgettable end'' whahaha that ship didnt stand a change.. big ships are big targets ... even with escort planes it would get owned

[TehFlyGuy]

@socomsix19 like your mom....lol jk

[Exilninja]

@socomsix19

Stop being an ignorant arsehole and show some respect. It did have an unforgettable end, since when do you see a explosion over 6 kilometres high?

[saybozert]

Curious how the animators decided after a few episodes that the Gamilons needed to be more easily identifiable. Watch for Desler to change from tan skin/red hair to blue skin/blonde hair in mid-stride.

[killer5000ii]

the yamato was bomb and destroy by the us

[skycaprob]

too bad the jappanese sent it on a suiside run along on perpose becasue the yamato left a battle instead of fighting it. bludy idiots i will never have respect for their leaders at that time.

[AcomsRazor1776]

@skycaprob "i will never have respect for their leaders at that time. " You mean their God/Emperor/Egotistical war mongering bastard!

[vlunney]

so the whole crew was going to repopulate on another planet with just Nova??????

[gell7]

@bannedbyMusloons learn sume "real"histroy young one unfree yur mind

from the bulshit u was taught in school

by socialist teachers

[bannedbyMusloons]

@gell7: I think you are pointing your guns in the wrong direction Socialists commies are the ones denying that Japan was an aggressor during WWII, dneying the holocaust and so on and so on.

[twilightsol]

@bannedbyMusloons Are you crazy!!!!!!!!!!!! Do you even know what a socialist is?? And why the hell would communists deny the holocaust? The Nazi's attacked Russia first you idiot!!!! Go back to school and turn off fox news.

[bannedbyMusloons]

@twilightsol: Tell that to Helen Thomas and all your other libtard commie buddies and just FYI I do not watch either CNN or FOX news FOX news is as much a sellout as CNN or MSNBC anyway.

[GrandFunker]

@bannedbyMusloons I could argue with you about Fox beingas big a sellout as the rest, but then you'd throw Bill O'Rielly at me...

[bannedbyMusloons]

@GrandFunker: Bill O'reilly is one of the biggest sellouts out there to begin with.

[navyreviewer]

Whew! Its a good thing they forgot to mention that as Yamato sank her forward magazine exploded, blowing the ship in half. The forward half landed right side up

and the rear half landed unsided-down and perpendicular infront of her bow. Good luck putting that back together. ;p

[WeissVogel]

What was that anime wherein there was this girl who was speaking to the Yamato as it passed by a certain harbor AND THE YAMATO TALKED back at her?

[XxFulgrimxX]

It's kinda sad that both of the Yamato-class Battleship (Yamato and Musashi) went down without doing much.

[GrandFunker]

@XxFulgrimxX I wonder how the battle of midway would have turned out if the Japanese had the balls to use her...sher was there, but they were afraid of letting the US Navy see her

[bannedbyMusloons]

@GrandFunker: And with reason as the Pearl Harbor bombing failed in it's objective of destroying the U.S carrier fleet which would have then allowed them and the rest of the Axis powers conquer the world just as you dreamed and the jews would be extinct and no so called lesser races and so omn right sick fuck?

[GrandFunker]

@bannedbyMusloons so I'm a sick fuck who wants the Jews exterminated, simply because I wonder what might have happened in a pivotal battle? You're the sick fuck who wants to hate me and point fingers based on nothing. I'm an American who thanks God every day for his help in the building and preservation of Freedom...jackass

[bannedbyMusloons]

@GrandFunker: Sorry I confused you with twilightsol.

[GrandFunker]

@bannedbyMusloons sorry I called you jackass

[AcomsRazor1776]

@GrandFunker The Battle of Midway would have ended no differently, and even if it did it would make no difference. The US had the industrial strength to build ships 3 times faster than the Japanese. At the very least it would have been a one sided war of attrition that would have favored the US.

[GrandFunker]

@AcomsRazor1776 Maybe...Vietnam and North Korea turned into wars of attrition, which we could've won. The people who run the US Gov't have no stomach for defeating evil. General Tet, the commander of the N. Vietnamese forces, said in his autobiography that he was ready to surrender, but noticed what the politicians and the so-called news media in America were saying about the war.

[AcomsRazor1776]

@GrandFunker The difference between WWII and Vietnam along with North Korea are the act's that dragged us into those Wars. In WWII the Japanese launched an unprovoked Attack on Pearl Harbor and killed alot of people. Any politician that would have openly opposed going to war with Japan would have been crucified. In North Korea we didn't win but we also didn't lose we brought them down to a Cease fire that has lasted decades.

[AcomsRazor1776]

@GrandFunker as for Vietnam The Hippy generation took over and gained political power. They were opposed to anything GOV. or military. Vietnam could have been won, the liberal politicians just wouldn't let them.

[GrandFunker]

@AcomsRazor1776 Absolutely right...dopey kids swayed by who? Communists. Of course the hippies started the peace movement! They're being indoctrinated by the enemies of Freedom!

[AcomsRazor1776]

@GrandFunker I can't hate the hippies for wanting peace. But the "smart" ones (I say smart only in the context that some of them actually made it through law school, etc.) Want to force total pacifism in the face of real danger leaving our country wide open for attacks. On a Personal note, if I were alive before the Vietnam war I more than likely have been against going to war. But during the war I would want the politicians to supply every possible resource the military needed without question.

[GrandFunker]

@AcomsRazor1776 I think they're trying to weaken us for takeover.

[AcomsRazor1776]

@GrandFunker there is 1 privately owned firearm for every 3 people in America Mostly owned by people who know how to use them. I Pray for the day they finally come, then we ones of the three will finally have an excuse ( ;

[plasticnapoleon22]

@AcomsRazor1776 refrain from doing it all you can, but if it must be done, do it right.

[plasticnapoleon22]

@GrandFunker enemies of freedom? of course, the "commanist menace", just like the "terrorist menace", or the "yellow menace", or the "german menace", or even the "injin menace". scapegoats are for hitlers, not free people. peace is a high ideal, that we should all work towards. why would anyone oppose it unless first attacked? were we ever attacked by the north vietnamese? or the north koreans? or Afghanistan (whom we supplied with weapons no less! to fight off who but, the "commanist menace"!)

[GrandFunker]

@plasticnapoleon22 Fuck you and your rather ignorant slant on History. The Communist menace" as you call it is a historically proven evil force, responsible for more deaths than ANYTHING in the 20th century, if not eternity. The Soviets and forced starvation in places like the Ukraine...Pol Pot in Cambodia, and his mountain of skulls, Mao and his labor camps, turning people into numbers...THE ENEMIES OF FREEDOM. Did you know Hitler was a socialist? Of course not...read some history.

[plasticnapoleon22]

@GrandFunker hitler was a fascist, he hated socialism and said it publicly. If he were a dedicated socialist he would have joined rotfront, or became a social democrat. when did he transfer control of the factories to the workers? when did he do anything for his people?! he directed all production himself. (im not saying stalin or mao was any different either). also, how was the peace movement influenced by such people as pol pot or stalin? that doesnt make an ounce of sense.

[GrandFunker]

@plasticnapoleon22 I've never seen or heard of Hitler saying anything about socialism. Socialism is not about the people...history tells you this. Why would Hitler one of the greatest egomaniacs to ever live join another party? As far as Pol Pot or Stalin influencing the peace movement, that's just ridiculous...there are more communists in the world than just those two. The 60's peace movement was started by communists inside the US. people who were naive enough to believe Communism is good

[plasticnapoleon22]

@GrandFunker are you trying to tell me that john lennon was a communist spy? an enemy of all things good and true? if so, i would like some evidence...

[GrandFunker]

@plasticnapoleon22 Of course not! He was a young man who needed to find something that made sense to him...like anyone else he made mistakes along the way. John Lennon was a great songwriter, and nothing could ever take that away from him. wait a tic...his name was Lennon....hmmmmm

[QuantumProphet]

@GrandFunker  Have you ever read the long list of American interventions in foreign countires to oust democratically elected people?. . . .

[GrandFunker]

@QuantumProphet Hugo Chavez, Joseph Stalin, Benito Musolini, Adolph Hitler, Mahmoud Ahmadinejad all democratically elected...all dictators.

[SirAroace]

@GrandFunker

You idiot, there is a differences between kicking out a dictator who came to power by election and over throwing the whole democracy system of a nation like we have done many times. (see Iran)

[GrandFunker]

@SirAroace Yeah...done by the worst President of the 20th century...why don't we go back and clean up the mess we've made?

[SirAroace]

@GrandFunker

Too late! It would take a revolution from inside Iran now to fix it.

[GhostInTheShell29]

@SirAroace Ironically isn't that how we got into this mess in the first place?

[plasticnapoleon22]

@AcomsRazor1776 exactly, if WWIII had started, then we would have had two ready-made beachheads for us when we went for china, a quick victory over china would allow us to then aid the europeans before the soviets locked off the north sea coast.

[SithLordZach117]

Desslock just doesn't sound as cool in the original version.

[Juinor]

WTF..why do japanese sent it to a stupid war section. they could just give up because they are close to that point. why they could save more life than wasting more life. get it?

[KoutaSeto]

if the world is in danger they should rise the yamato and ONLY the yamato for such a mission! it was the honorablest ship in history (the bismark and tirpitz never did something realy important but the yamato was in more than 4 maijor battles in the pacific war and her sister fought against all ods in one of those battles!

[al122385]

I honestly differ with your views on the Bismark, it sank the Royal Fleet's flagship which was a devastating blow to British morale and also made its last stand in a great battle against all odds, it was a pretty heroic battleship in its own way too...

But anyway, I agree, the Yamato was simply mighty.

[warlord399]

shit

[MrJwouts67]

wow a blast from the past. i remember watching this when i was 12. they were reruns then, but great storytelling. also was called starblazers. great vid!

[gjc82071]

I will say 1 thing about the Japanese in WW2. Cowards, they definitely were NOT. Going out for that last battle....At the close WW1, the German admiral wanted to take the remainder of the German Imperial Fleet (about 75 ships) out for 1 last go at the British & Allies (about 300 ships) but the men mutinied rather then waste their lives, and maybe prolong the armistice. But in 1919 while interned in a British port, they scuttled much of the fleet in honor rather then surrender it in full.

[SadCarnage1224]

read a book firstly the german navy werent called the german imperial fleet retard,an ww2 took place durin the 30's an 40's 1919 was durin ww1 dumbass

[DonMeaker]

Japanese sailors and soldiers were not cowards. Cabinet members were willing to sacrifice 30 million japanese to avoid personal risk and responsibility for their part in the war. To them I say "Cowards!".

[leonardo75]

Notice how the enemy pays respects to the fallen warrior at 4:28.

[CaptainNomura]

Yes, but personally I don't think any of the American pilots at the real battle gave any salute of respect to the Japanese, but also in real history, the Yamato broke up in two major pieces, with the main section resting upside down. For some reason, up to the 1970s, many believed that the Yamato sank intact and were resting under the water upright. I remember another manga back then that depicted the sunken Yamato as a converted fortress after the war.

[Chownz]

@CaptainNomura Actually, there have been reports from personal records that US pilots did salute the Yamato as she sank. When some were asked, they simply replied that regardless many men wouldn't make it home to their love ones. For the record Japanese pilots that survived the war spoke of pilots doing the same when they shot down enemy pilots who fought gallantly against...

[CaptainNomura]

It's possible but the WWII veterans I personally met during the 1970s when I was in USAF, told me that they usually hated the Japanese during WWII, as they were taught and usually gave the finger rather than the salute but after the war, they felt bad about some of the events and many learned to respect them rather than hating.

[Chownz]

That's the same that I was told by my grandfather who served during WWII and my uncle who was a pilot during the Pacific and Europe campaign. They learnt to hate the enemy for no other reason that they were told too, and after the war regretted what they did. But were sad that many on both sides never came home. Same with my father who served in Nam for two years.

[CaptainNomura]

Agreed. Most of the veterans never faced hatred face to face so they learned to understand the other side after the war, many even became friends, including the Japanese ace Saburo Sakai and his American counterparts but I can understand many still carrying hatred for "the enemy" decades after the event because of what they faced and suffered. War is an necessary evil and most who fought it face them differently.

[Chownz]

All too true my friend, its a pity that now days we as a species haven't learnt the lessons from the past. And like E. Burke once said that if we don't learn from the past; we will repeat the horrors in our own life time!! War may be necessary but there has to be another way to see through our differences? Take my friend and all the best for you and your family, in this new year full of hope and dreams... God Bless

[Chownz]

Whoops!! I was suppose to say "Take care" sorry about that LOL!!

[CaptainNomura]

Ditto! Fortunately for our family, we never really faced hatred during the war, even though my father was strafed by an F-4U Corsair near Tokyo when he was 10 years old in 1945 and my mother witnessed the Tokyo firebombings at the same time, our parents never taught us hate so it was easier for me to live in the States and even join the USAF. I didn't even see any hatred displayed while I was at school, both in Japan and the US. Life was very innocent back then.

[Chownz]

LIkewise, my father while serving in NAM was shot twice!! By trigger happy Yanks!! As he always said, but the funny thing was that he was never angry about it? And he told me that instead of him and his platoon blasting the crap out of them (he was a scout, serving with the NZ army) they actually invited them back to the firebase for a Hangi (earth-cooked food) and they got drunk and had a laugh!! Funny what war can bring out in people.

[CaptainNomura]

Good for him. Anyone who fought in NAM or any other war without causing trouble should be remembered and respected. If there were more like him, maybe we wouldn't have any reason to fight a war.

[G777GUN]

@Chownz

Do you think it would be right to raise a ship that men have died on?

[Chownz]

No I think not, for people that fought and died in what ever circumstance should be left in peace. But that's my opinion - though I've seen other countries who see otherwise? Whether to keep a reminder of what has occurred or for personal reasons, they lift up wrecks and re-interred the remains on land then preserve the wrecks as monuments!! In my culture that wouldn't be allowed... Not even considered...

[KoutaSeto]

rasist! ganz erlich Rasist

glaub mir es is warscheinlicher das die das selbe wie die engländer bei der bismark gemacht haben nich so nen scheis

du solltes vll mal den puren horror des krieges erleben bzw überhaupt was schnallen über sowas vll würdige ich dich nochmal eines blickes

[FencingBoomerang]

It had already been in combat before, it even retreated after it took a direct hit from a bomb, it was only later on that the US sunk it.

[Inmango]

The Yamato was a beautiful ship... It was the largest battleship ever built, and went out with an unforgettable end.

[Kaizer88Kanzler]

@Inmango

The unforgettable end was happened due to its FUNCTION as just a big target practice for US torpedo bomber ! Its totally failed to sink any Allied battleship... Musashi along with Yamato is one of the greatest Japs Navy blunder, instead of making aircraft carrier, they wasted all their limited pitiful resources for big scrap metal who they said REPRESENTING THE EPITOME of Japs naval... yeah epitome of sinking Japs naval actually, they should make 5000 kamikaze plane instead of Yamato

[RocketHarry865]

You idot. The Japanese did built carriers. They were destroyed at the Battles of Midway, Philippine Sea and Leyte Gulf. You are also forgetting that the American's had to swarm their planes to overwhelm the ships AA guns. A battleship may be a big target, but that dosen't mean that its an easy one

[RocketHarry865]

@Kaizer88Kanzler : You are forgetting that no battleship in ww2 was lost to air power when those ships were under fighter cover. Now compare that to the number of carriers that were destroyed despite their fighter cover. I am not saying which is ship is better, I am just saying, remember the purpose battleships and carriers were desgined for. Why pick either a carrier or a battleship, when you can have both. Trust me battleships and carriers working together make a good team.

[skrewdreyever]

@Inmango for some reason i thought the bismark was the largest built, i am wrong?

[Papadragon18]

@skrewdreyever The Bismarck was the fifth biggest battleship ever built. Before came Yamato, Iowa, Tirpitz (Bismarck's sistership) and the british Vanguard.=)

[Battleship009]

There was also the Musashi.

[TheGalenyoung]

hey guys come on, this is a cartoon your getting bent out of shape over,the past is done,its what we do now as a species right? i'm not trying to play hippie/flower in your rifle. this was just a series to entertain not to rub in politics

[bannedbyMusloons]

Only in your dreams libtard, only in your dreams...

[Restitutus]

There still are a lot of Gamilusians in Season 2 and subsequently. The Yamato does destroy Gamilus' capital, but the key scene is Kodai's famous "We are no better than them" monolog afterwards, which brings the moral message of the entire series into focus.

[Hesuku]

Kodai is confused, Restitutus.

[Restitutus]

There is not that much of romantisising. The whole series in fact is an anti-war-statement. It did not came out like that in Star Blazers, but Yamato contains several open condemnations of the Kamikaze, annihilation of non-combattants etc.

[bannedbyMusloons]

Really as I recall The Yamato ends up destroying the Gamelon species in it's entirety! Not like the Gamelons gave that much of a choice either, but it was a brtual war animated show so to say it was Antiwar makes no sense whatsoever...

[Hesuku]

You got it right here, Restitutus.

[jsm666]

This part, with the sinking of the original Yamato, was deleted from the Australian dub release, which is a shame. Tomorrow is Australia's day for honouring its fallen; this is a good reminder that those who fell in battle on the other side were heroes to their people too.

[pinoi78]

The Yamato is the second GREATEST ship in Anime history.

[taka0h]

what is the first ?

Andromeda ?

[pinoi78]

The Macross.

[mamakorekatte]

NOOOO

[mamakorekatte]

Macross(robotech) borrowed many many many ideas from uchuu senkan yamato. to me space battleship yamato is the first greatest ship all the universe

[Raidmasterprod]

3:21, did the Yamato just blow up that plane with its turrets? WOWSA!

[snowboredsnj]

Actually, just the shockwave of the 18 inch shell passing near it would have been enuf to wreck that planes shit royally.

[Raidmasterprod]

Still WOWSA!

[tunaman100]

Actually, they used shrapnel rounds to turn their big guns into giant FLAK cannons.

[papakorekatte]

nobody wants to hear about it

[cid76]

Uh? About what?

[jakmatey]

Awesum

[Hesuku]

We should understand how much Japanese people went through, although their atrocity in Asia and POW abuse was evil. The commoners were not even aware what their military was doing overseas even though that doesn't leave anyone innocent.

[Hesuku]

Why didn't Germans make movies like "Yamato" just like Japanese did?

[smilnaf]

I might research that. Its really interesting. But an infinite number of factors play a role in shaping the efforts to deal with post-war humiliation, describing and analyzing the outcome is probably all we could do

[Hesuku]

Thank you. Actually there are probable answers but you need to know the nationals first hand, including in-depth knowledge of their nature and their history a few hundreds back. You won't come up with accurate answers by research just on WW II and post-war incidents. My comment was more a reactionary thing to the Japanese comments above.

[Hesuku]

"Yamato" was the national pride and the very last hope of victory for the agonized nation. Regardless of what had happened in real history and the true circumstances, she will always be loved by Japanese people. They'll remember how their soldiers died for their nation in such desperate situation. Well, happy is a man who can live and die for a truly good cause.

[smilnaf]

Truly good cause??

About the research, as said, you won't come up with accurate answers at all. The best you can do is shed a little more light on history.

[Hesuku]

Yeah, like spreading decent human rights and essencial freedom so that every human society on earth would be transparent and accountable without having any more voiceless victims in its system.

Good many things are knowable pretty accurately; in this case all we need to do is get to know Germans and Japanese and study their history for the last 2-3 centuries.

[chinoandxano]

I actually like the voice of the US dubbed Deslock better - he sounded like an evil gay guy LOL...

[MrDefaulto]

he so was

[schnellbomber87]

I just knew that some overly patriotic goon would say that. Well, i need a good laugh every once in a while.

[schnellbomber87]

lolz. If they were to create the original, all those paranoids would be pissed and then say that disney is anti-american and is glorifying the axis powers of WWII. I can't help but laugh when i hear about the new movie.

[theblackhand2]

Space Battle Ship Yamato or Star Blazers as I knew the show when I has little was my first exposure to animation. I've loved animation ever since.

[tokman20]

Desler wasn't always blue?!!! I didn't know that. Anyway, this is a good series!

[MrDefaulto]

Yeah it was weird, I guess they were trying to make Gamalons multi-ethnic like earth, some were "white" and some were "blue". But then in one scene, they show Desler walking and the lights change color and suddenly he's blue...

it's like they tried to say "oh he's always been blue, you just saw him in the wrong lighting"!

[pandaphil]

More than likely the crew in the cel painting department misread their coloring guide and by the time someone caught it it was too late to go back and recolor them. So they just ran with it.

[Hesuku]

No, it was more likely that the directors decided to color Gamilusian blue later, way after the series already started.

[dakusui]

The guys who produced Yamato chaged skin color of Gamilons blue after this episode. I believe

By the way, I love this episode the most among all the scenes of Yamato. In spite that the space battleship doesn't apeear at all.

In this scene, the US aviator salutes to sinking old Yamato.

In my childhood, I learned that there is respect toward the enemy whom you fight against not only in Japan but also in America and probably in Europe.

Of course now I know it comes from what you call chivalry.

[Neboolosa]

Amen

watch Otoko-tachi no Yamato ....that's the real Yamato

Thank you for uploading it for us :O)

[Humbertusmarius]

Great show.

[nosorab3]

awsome shit
