(L+CR) Space Battleship Yamato 2199 (movie & TV)

Yes, her face was quite original and lips stood out a bit much.

Her unique body proportions was more emphasised in the hologram scene from chapter 5 and the initial stern face look when she queried Dessler. There after, it was all odd face. Face wise, the best was when she was on the throne speaking to Hyss.

I really want to know what Gimleh said when the explosion hit his ship. It seems to me that he said that the explosion is not a problem.

Naruhodo is "i see." kore wa is "this is". shüka might come from shüryo, "end". So i'd go with "I see... This is the end..."

[Ithekro]

His calmness is slightly disturbing. Though I seem to recall a story of a Nazi leader that was just as calm at his execution or something.

I'm finally caught up with this series, and so far so good.

[Ithekro]

Two episodes left on TV.

[macdawson]

If all goes well, i'll finish it next tuesday... It's a bit bitter-sweet, now that the end is coming.

It appears that Gamilias has more advanced real time translating devices as it was assumed that when Yuki was kidnapped, she was given a Gamilon translation device and it was able to translate Japanese to Gamilon, even though she was expected to speak to them in the Iscandarian language.

Analyzer has a poorer version of the translator as Melda put it. Even at the end of the first PS2 game when the crew of Yamato and Gamilian were working together, they emphasised on the difficulty of translating from the earthlings. Probably by Yamato III, they had better devices.

Wikipedia describes that from chapter 2 and onwards, the majority of Gamilon language was dubbed into the viewer's language(Japanese).

[GundamFan0083]

I'm looking forward to seeing the ending of this series.
Especially what all of you have said about what happens with Yuki, Kodai, and Desler.
If it is as good as all of you say, I will be buying this series.
Prices are coming down on Amazon BTW.

Ever wondered what the Yamato crew would sound like, if they see the Yamato from the other side?

Oh how things have come full circle!

[macdawson]

Sanada and Domel on the bridge of the Enterprise!! XD

[Ithekro]

We are around two hours to what will probably be the first full airing of episode 25. This should be interesting since even those who went to the theater haven't see all of this episode yet. Might rate higher than usual on TV because of that.

[YF19EX]

Its 1727 in Tokyo and ep 25 was great.

[Ithekro]

I agree fo the most part. Still need to see the last six minutes or so.

Spoiler for Episode 25:

Frakken was awesome! I wasn't expecting him to show up at all, and yet not only does the provide fire support for Yamato, he's got one of their crew as an engineer (Yabu got a good end this time around). Also Goer finally got was what coming to him.

Though I wonder what happened to the red fleet battleship Goer had as he left Balun in Episode 18. It might have been said, or it was in the background and I failed to spot it due to how I watched it.

Dessler's attack felt a lot like the attack in Farewell to Space Battleship Yamato mixed with the attack from the original series episode 26. I can say more on it later once I see it in full.

Spoiler for Zergutt:

Glad they gave Yabu a more fitting end than just being left at Leptapoda. And Goer went down full of pride. Funny thing is, he managed to survive everyone else! He was the longest running vilain in the show, except for Desler, of course.

The Zergutt was indeed missing, as Goer commanded the attack from the Goergamesh. She may have been severely damaged in the blast at Balun, since that was the last we saw of her.

And the Deusler was a magnificent beast. Pity that, much like the other dreadnaughts, it was severely underused.

And to finish... YUKIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII! XD

[YF19EX]

Spoiler for ep 25 last 6min:

Unless they write one hell of an explanation, Dessler won't be in a second season.

[cyoti]

Was there a preview of 26 after the ED?

[Ithekro]

They have the preview up for 26.

Why do you say that? Because

Spoiler for immortal rant:

his ship exploded and he went out in a ball of fire?! Same thing happened in the original and he came back. Desler is immortal! IMMORTAL, I TELL YA!!! XDDD

Spoiler for Effects/Fates:

I suppose they could always come up with some sort of effect in the medium they ship was in. His ship comes out someplace. Just the core section partly survives, or his body is found and "brought back" like he was for the second series. I don't think they even explained his survival in Farewell to Yamato. He was just there having been picked up by Zordar...no other explaination other than he and Talan were probably the last Gamilas in existance as far as the film was concerned.

I did think of something unrelated though. Since Iscanadar has issues with Earth's wave motion gun, I wonder if the future Earth ships have "solved" that issue with their wide angle wave motion guns. They don't seem to be able to take out planets anymore as the beam goes out to a point and then sort of explodes into a shower of destruction that is perfect for taking out large formation of enemy ships. Only Yamato seems to still have the older style wave motion gun (might be explained as to why she might be decommissioned in a future series...she's non-compliant with her current wave motion gun, and not a useful with it plugged.
