you will have the thanks of the world. the take off from gamilon with iscandar coming into view, followed by the congratulations from captain avatar was truly a sci fi moment... they made it !

[Orenotter]

Oh yeah... what we thought was being mellow actually turned out to be the fact that Desslok is bonzo nutters.

@tgarnett25 I see it as the difference between Gamilons and the people of earth: at least in the "Star Blazers" future, earth fights only as a last resort, and takes no joy in it.

In real earth history, of course, there's plenty of examples of conquerors who aren't in it to be evil, they simply want what the other guy's got. The British Empire was completely bastardly, but their motto could have been, "Don't take it personally, it's just business". Maybe that's Desslok as well.

[fendergibs]

@tgarnett25 yes which is why many have prob with how later Deslock is kinda turned into a friend later, which is weak

[fendergibs]

@Halpin2006 The US version had to be tamed down thus many sceens were edited

[Halpin2006]

@fendergibs That would not surprise me. General Krypt is just like Rudolph Hess, a man in a very powerful position, but really nothing more than a puppet YES man to their nation's supreme leader.

[Halpin2006]

@tgarnett25 True True, but it's just science fiction.

[fendergibs]

@onehundredstocks in the real version Deslock turns and shoots Crypt with his pistol

[louiev2000]

And you guys thought that Wildstar was a hothead. He captained the Argo in kicking the Gamilons in their own backyard while taking care of his girl. What a stud.

[onehundredstocks]

@starsiegeplayer I did not know that. I wonder if that scene is featured in Space Battleship "Yamato"? It would be in 'Japanese' Language.

[starsiegeplayer]

@onehundredstocks It's too bad they cut out Desslok's original response to that (Crypt being murdered by Desslok).

[onehundredstocks]

This was the best line - "Leader Desslok must stop fooling ourselves" LD "What"!? You said it yourself, its almost as if we have been fighting a ghost ship"! " How can an old Earth Battleship defeat all of Gamilon"? "We've been fighting a force we don't understand"! "Let us stop fighting them before they DESTROY US"! well said Crypt. They paid dearly.
