What a battle. It's especially hurting to see the other fleet perishing protecting Yamato. How heroic. When someone dies like that in "Yamato," it makes me cry and remember, though I'm a foreigner, the real Yamato setting out for the combat they knew they could not return alive in 1945.

You know, its a mess when you have to bring people back from the dead to save Earth! wish they would make just one movie (yeah a new one) where the rest of the EDF pulls their share of the load! Perhaps that will take place in a live action movie?

[Hesuku]

The legendary words of Yuki: "That's why I'm going with you, Susumu" when she was told they may never be able to return. Tears!! I wonder if Yoki had got a permission from Captain Okita when she went with Susumu. She certainly has her own job in the main bridge...

[Hesuku]

Yuki's nerve is truly admirable... Unbelievably incredible, sweet beautiful lady...

@stylesIkon 1) Please see the contrast between the Dinguil Imperial family and Okita/Kodai. The former kills his own flesh and blood for greed, and the latter is bonded with near-perfect love and trust though they were not a real father and son. 2) Remember Yamato is a cartoon. Anything is possible to make a point. Haha. These producers directly experienced the end of WW2.

@Hesuku Same here. This is turning out to be one of my favourite anime movies.

1) These Duikilians are chickenshit bastards! Even Dessler at his worst, even Zordor, even the Dark Nebula guys, and even the damn Bolars had some sense of honor and fair play!

'Kay. I know in real life there are lots of a-holes like these guys, and they piss me off, too.

2) Liked Okita, but I'm not sure how I feel about his resurrection.

3) Are they just writing Dessler out? Surely he deserves better than that....some kind death scene is order for him, ain't it?

what a dirty trick! like launching an attack while your negotiating a peace treaty...

@dave19941000 So it's a free, civilized nation with a sane constitution with English fluency. What do you want more for Philippines?

[dave19941000]

@Hesuku I don't mean Philippines as in WW2, I mean Philippines as in Spanish-American war, where after the Philippines was a colony or territory (whatever you like to call it) of the US. Directly or Indirectly, I can't think of many countries freed by the US (all where during, and only during, WW2) and I can think of none the US has done alone.

[Hesuku]

@KoutaSeto nice spellings...

[Hesuku]

@dave19941000 There are supposed to be 229 nations in all. I gave you a round number. Liberation is sometimes indirect. You do things as you watch. You mean Philippines? It was freed from Imperial Japan's occupation by Americans.
