Yamato<\/em> boom, anime boom, the work that started it is coming in 70mm!!<\/h3>\n

Yamato<\/em>, launch on the final voyage!<\/h2>\n

<\/p>\n

A major galactic catastrophe! Yamato<\/em> investigates…<\/h3>\n

Speaking of Space Battleship Yamato<\/em>, the TV series was broadcast in 1974 and the first movie was released in 1977 to great acclaim. At the time, newspapers were reporting it extensively, calling it the “Yamato<\/em> Boom” or “Yamato<\/em> Fever.” It was also with Yamato<\/em> that fans began lining up overnight to see anime movies.<\/p>\n

Yamato<\/em> will celebrate its 10th anniversary next year, and this final chapter commemorates that milestone.<\/p>\n

The story begins with a major catastrophe occurring in space. A dimensional fault opens near the center of the galaxy, and another galaxy emerges from it to cause great damage to the core star systems that intersect with it. Yamato<\/em>, with Susumu Kodai as captain, heads to the center of the galaxy to investigate the situation.<\/p>\n

A great collapse has occurred there, and Dessler’s nation, the Gamilas Empire, which boasted great power, has become a ruined planet.<\/p>\n

On its way back, Yamato<\/em> discovers a planet whose city has been engulfed in a great flood and sets out to rescue the people. But only one boy is saved, and Yamato<\/em> suffers great damage.<\/p>\n

Surprise! 70mm Anime<\/h3>\n

The cause of the flood is the watery planet Aquarius, which passed close to the planet Dengil, and the gravitational forces between the two planets caused a large amount of water to fall.<\/p>\n

As Yamato<\/em> prepares to leave Dengil, a mysterious fleet launches an attack. Yamato<\/em> is exposed to enemy radiation weapons, and Kodai, who is not wearing a helmet, contracts radiation. This is said to be incurable, and he is near to death.<\/p>\n

This is the prologue of the final chapter of Yamato<\/em>. The intersection of galaxies, and a city swallowed by a great flood. From the very beginning, there are breathtaking scenes, including space battles and the mysteriously beautiful water planet Aquarius.<\/p>\n

This final chapter of Yamato<\/em> also features many new mecha, and the scale is even greater than before. Uruk and its mobile fortress mothership, which dwarfs Yamato<\/em>, challenges Yamato<\/em> to battle!<\/p>\n

What is particularly noteworthy is that all of this will be presented on a large screen in 70mm. The use of 70mm film for animation is a rare attempt anywhere in the world.<\/p>\n

There are many other topics about this chapter of Yamato<\/em>. First of all, the famous captain Juzo Okita will be making a reappearance. It will be interesting to see how he will interact with Kodai and the others.<\/p>\n

In addition to Isao Sasaki, who has sung all the theme songs for the series, Tranzam, Tomoko Kuwae, and Junko Yagami will also be singing new theme songs in their first-ever appearance in an anime.<\/p>\n

Premiering March ’83<\/span><\/h2>\n
