Eventually Kodai has a secret meeting with Gamillan ambassadors who tell him that the message they received was from a Goddess named Teressa who is sealed on a planet called Telezart, and that the planet is under attack from Gatlantis.

Speaking of Okita, the ex-crew of the Yamato gather at his grave on the anniversary of his passing and all discuss the visions they had, with the exception of amnesiac Yuki Mori, now Kodai’s fiancée.
#STAR BLAZERS FLEET BATTLE SYSTEM SERIES#
Soon we see Susumu Kodai, now a captain of his own vessel during this battle, and a bunch of other former Yamato crew get caught in a strange golden beam that freezes them in place and gives them all hallucinations of “ghosts” of people who were close to them before death telling them to “board the Yamato”.Īfter the battle we are treated to a shot of Earth’s new armada, all of which are equipped with Wave Motion Guns, the technology that the late Captain of the Yamato, Okita, had promised the Iscandaran Queen at the end of the last series to not use as an offensive weapon again. Taking place three years after the end of the war with Gamillas and the restoration of Earth via the “Cosmo Reverse System”, 2202 starts with a brand new battlefield, as a joint Earth and Gamillan fleet is taking on a large force of Gatlantian ships, wasting no time setting up the new status quo. Therefore it probably goes without saying, but this review will contain spoilers for the original series, so if you haven’t had a chance to watch it yet, you’ve been warned!Īs mentioned last time, this is a large budget reimagining of Leiji Matsumoto’s original epic Space Battleship Yamato (known as Star Blazers in the West), though in 2202’s case its adapting the sequel series Space Battleship Yamato II and the film Arrivederci Yamato, though the film part will be the latter half of this season, obviously.

Thanks to certain global issues clogging up the release schedule it’s barely been a month since I reviewed Manga’s release of Star Blazers: Space Battleship Yamato 2199, and yet here we are with the first half of the sequel series – Star Blazers: Space Battleship Yamato 2202, containing the first 13 episodes.
