Dimensional submarines...Comet Empire warships, multiple corrections or explainations for various animation errors in the orignal. Lot of women. Very detailed starships and battles.
When was the last time anyone made a remake of anything on this level? That the fans didn't say it sucked I mean.

Actually I think the White Comet ship may be an adaptation of the "Shapearon" class battleship created by Zenseava. I imagine some of the artists for Yamato 2199 have seen his work considering that he was one of the members of Yamato Mechanics.
Perhaps it's just a coincidence, but it sure looks similar. Here is zenseava's blog post about it: http://lighthousezen.seesaa.net/article/113141765.html

There was a drawing from Yamato II for a gun version of the Anti-matter missile cruiser. The Star Blazers game gave it the name Avenger.
I can see the Yamato 2199 version being a toned down version of this. Shapped more like the orignal missile cruiser and using more traditional gun turrets rather than the long barreled weapons or the more Gamilas style turrets seen here.

Different designs for the same ship from one episode to the next (the carrier fleet changed design a few times in epsiode 21 and likely to episode 22 as well. The details of the battlecarrier in second season changed from the end of episode 10 to the beginning of episode 11). Fixes, or explainations of random background unit colors in the Yamato crew. Giving a viable background for the different colored Gamilas personel at the beginning of the show. In some cases redesigning scenes that originally had animation errors (cells in the wrong order) so that such an error is no only not made, but no even possible in the first place (no door for Shima to walk though on Sasha's escape pod, for example).
There will probably be other errors that people find over time. Aside from the Engrish that was spotted and dealt with prior to the release of Chapter II on BD. But, if they aren't as rushed as they were in 1974, the animators will likely not have as many flubs.

Thanks for being specific, and I agree on all points, except...

Well, that's the job of the Continuity people on the show... Although I did spot a minor misspelling on a monitor in one of the episodes in the second volume (which I can't remember, precisely where, after watching it for the 100th time), we have to remember that English isn't a predominant language in Japan — and that American producers are far more sloppy when depicting Japanese language on-screen in our films. So, I think we can cut them some slack...

They make a more believeable reason for the different colors now than switching the colors based on a command decision back then. Instead of Dessler being caucasian at the start, he's blue. That is a fix of sorts. Having the Pluto base personal as another race within the Gamilas Empire makes it so the handwave of the color change in the original episode 11 can be avoided.

First Yamato 2199 soundtrack album was released in its 40+ tracks glory.
http://www.cdjapan.co.jp/detailview.html?KEY=LACA-15248 (plus 45 second previews of most of the tracks) Plus: Another mecha update: http://yamato2199.net/mecha/index.html More Gamilas ships added: Dommel's Flagship (with quad turrets!) http://yamato2199.net/mecha/gamirasu_sn07.html The already mentioned Dimensional Submarine http://yamato2199.net/mecha/gamirasu_sn08.html And the three Carriers that would be in the Rainbow Galaxy fight. (each different in more ways than just their paint job) The carriers don't seem to have the "Eyes" like other Gamilas ships. Unless they are onthe bottom and we can't see them from any of these angles. Green: http://yamato2199.net/mecha/gamirasu_sn09.html Purple: http://yamato2199.net/mecha/gamirasu_sn10.html Blue: http://yamato2199.net/mecha/gamirasu_sn11.html

The two Gamilas fleet captains revealed in episode 11 get provisional character files (i,e. no information except their name and voice actor)
- Vemu Heidern (i've been using the semi-official translation for the 1974 character's name, Hidrun, but this seems better ) - Fomto Barger (here, the original seems better than Burger XD) |

The other two commanders must be future material.
Vemu Heidern was the still unseen Battle Carrier commander (Drill Missile bomber). Fomto Barger was in command of the purple carrier (dive bombers).

If nothing else, they are keeping the existing universe intact. The Comet Empire exists and all that. If they go there or not is entirely their choice.
I still want to see Space Battleship Andromeda and the new Earth Fleet.

I've seen people in several forums blowing this out of proportion, that they will compress the Gamilas and Comet Empire stories into one. There is no sign of that. The Comet Empire ships appearing in 2199 is justexpanding on what already existed in the original first season. We knew back then that Gamilas was involved in several other fronts, but those enemies were never given form or name. Gatlantis appeared in season 2 as the main anthagonist and it was hinted that they had previous involvement with Gamilas but they never went beyond that. All this does is deepen the Gamilas backstory and the Yamato universe. If we forget about the original, this would just be about Domel fighting an enemy of Gamilas wich in a future sequel would be revealed as the new enemy Gatlantis. For now, as far as Y2199 is concerned, that's all they are and it will probably remain that way until season 2, hopefully comes along. For now is just fan service (the cleaner kind XD ) and foundation laying.
