The <em>Yamato<\/em> series, which sparked a boom in theatrical animated films, is finally coming to its true end with the release of its fourth film this spring.<\/p>\n<p>The series began with the explosive hit <em>Space Battleship Yamato<\/em> (1977), followed by <em>Farewell to Yamato<\/em> (1978) and <em>Be Forever Yamato<\/em> (1980) with the selling point of &#8220;This is the end&#8221; each time. However, each story ended with a scene of <em>Yamato<\/em> charging into battle or returning to Earth after a battle. Contrary to the announcement, the endings left the impression that another film would follow. Rival companies were usually particular about this point, continuing to make statements that could be interpreted as either mockery or attack, saying there were many &#8220;lasts.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>However, in the climax scene of the fourth film in the series, <em>The Final Chapter<\/em> (scheduled for release by Toei on March 19), the &#8220;unsinkable&#8221; <em>Yamato<\/em> is finally split in half by an enemy attack. Whether or not <em>Yamato<\/em> will become space junk after this is a secret until the film&#8217;s release. However, it is sure to be shocking scene for longtime <em>Yamato<\/em> fans.<\/p>\n<p><\/br><\/p>\n<p><a href='http:\/\/ourstarblazers.com\/vault\/084b'>Return to previous article<\/a><\/p>\n<p><\/br><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-42423","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-uncategorized"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.ourstarblazers.com\/vault\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/42423","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.ourstarblazers.com\/vault\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.ourstarblazers.com\/vault\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.ourstarblazers.com\/vault\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.ourstarblazers.com\/vault\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=42423"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/www.ourstarblazers.com\/vault\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/42423\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":42424,"href":"https:\/\/www.ourstarblazers.com\/vault\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/42423\/revisions\/42424"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.ourstarblazers.com\/vault\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=42423"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.ourstarblazers.com\/vault\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=42423"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.ourstarblazers.com\/vault\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=42423"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
