space battleship yamato-classic 70's anime remastered

submitted by enoch

9 years 11 months ago

in 1975 Yoshinobu Nishizaki created a space epic animated series called "space battleship yamato" which was imported to the US in 1978 and english dubbed.over the years the damage and degradation of the series from being converted from 35mm to 16mm.a project began to lovingly restore this classic anime to its original glory and season 1 has been completed.

the US imported series was renamed "star blazers" and quickly became a cult favorite.

i am posting this entire first remastered season for those who may have missed out on this spectacular,groundbreaking anime series.you may recognize the style of animation from such shows as "voltron" or "battle of the planets" but this was their predecessor .

this show is more a revel in nostalgia for me.so for those who walk with me down memory lane or those seeing this show for the first time.....enjoy.

*side note:they have finished the first season of the remake which has far superior animation but stays very true to the original:

You forgot to mention Robotech, which was the closest relative to the Star Blazers series, as I recall. In fact, one season of Robotech was about a giant, lone space battleship fighting aliens in the outer solar system.

I had almost forgotten about Star Blazers. I totally loved this series when I saw it in the early 80's.

Something odd happened with the video though...it's listed as 8:08:06 long, but what I get is only 8:05, then is said 'this video is not available in your country". (USA) That sucks.

i totally DID forget robotech but by the time that was getting popular i was more into girls,music and experimental drugs.

Ah japan... you are weird.
It's a story about an Imperial Japanese battleship that's the hero?

and a perverted robot??

Moving this video to enoch's personal queue. It failed to receive enough votes to get sifted up to the front page within 2 days.
