I think much of the reason my generation is more drawn to the "honorable villain" is because of characters like Desslok who was a great combination of dramatic charisma, desperation and honor.  He really believed in his home and his phrase "As long as I live, Gamelon lives" is equal parts bravado and loyalty to a cause.

Yeah, he was a little crazy but that was part of his charm. In the end, he wanted to save his home and people to the point he would obliterate everyone else.

(cont) the obvious connection is that of the United States in WWII. That the US was so caught up in winning the war and preserving their way of life that they would destroy Japan in the process (do not mistake me: its a poor analogy, but one the Japanese makers of this piece may have given more than just a passing glance to).

In the original version, you see the original Yamado sinking in WWII: the music accompanying the Americans is the SAME music that introduces the Gamelons.

Clearly, Desslok is a very american / english character. And it's the natural consequence: the Yamato was a japanese warship, after all.
Said this (it may be only my vision, why not) i'll never foget. I was only a child, admiring a leader, not just a mad, obsessed man.

The primary villan who later turns good? Sounds a lot like Darth Vader! Hmmm...

Yeah, Desslock is probably one of my favorite (if not my favorite) movie villans in history. Even though, he's not really a villan about halfway through the series.

Both of those scenes appear in the movie "New Voyage," but the scene with Starsha appears much later in the movie, not right after Gamilon's destruction.

Starsha decides to sacrafice Iscandar in order to keep the Black Nebula Empire from taking advantage of the planet's resources for the purpose of war.
