We’re off to outer space, we’re leaving Mother Earth
\nTo save the human race…<\/p>\n

Yoshinobu Nishizaki, the executive producer of Space Battleship Yamato<\/em>, suspected he had a tiger by the tail even when Japanese audiences at first seemed uninterested. He took it to the English-speaking world first as a little-known movie in 1976 called Space Cruiser Yamato<\/em> and later in 1979 as the TV series that captivated a generation: Star Blazers!<\/em><\/p>\n

This section of the website is all about a uniquely American incarnation of a uniquely Japanese story. Star Blazers<\/em> has its own flavor, its own spirit, and its own pathway into the realm of science-fiction adventure. Before the series was released in the US, little was known about the strange world of Japanese cartoons. Clearly and unabashedly proud of its origins, Star Blazers<\/em> trumpeted the arrival of this exciting medium and inspired English-speaking audiences to learn more about it.<\/p>\n

Subsequent anime productions played vital roles in making anime a worldwide phenomenon, but it was Star Blazers<\/em> that blazed the trail, and this section of Cosmo DNA is here to preserve that fact for all time.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
