Yes! Been waiting for a second season of 2199 for a while now. Considering the success of the first season, it seemed only a matter of time (especially with how they were setting up elements for future installments), but really happy to have confirmation that we'll be getting more Yamato

.

Of course, that it's going back to the movie premier format means watching it might be as haphazard as it was for season one, at least for me

.

Kamijou Touma IB · 2015-07-29, 15:26

Woohoo more Yamato. Can't wait.

Ithekro · 2015-07-30, 00:04

Guess it is time to prep the pipe organ, break out the twin wave motion guns, and see how much clothing they give Teresa this time around.

Looks like she got a refit and a paint job (the red now goes to the middle of her second torpedo tube)

Waiting for Andromeda.

skaianDestiny · 2016-03-28, 12:48

Man oh man I can't wait!

moodie · 2016-03-28, 13:22

Do you think the fan service will decrease because its not going to be xebec

Ithekro · 2016-03-28, 13:32

That depends on what kind of fan service you are looking for. Skin or mecha?

The last time they used "Soldiers of Love" as part of the title, a lot of the crew died...nearly everyone.

EDIT: Who has noticed that it also says "Star Blazers" on the title page?

Wait... I thought Xebec was still set to do this. Did I miss something?

I've coulda sworn someone said IG was going to do it. I am probably mistaken not you mb.

Ithekro · 2016-03-28, 15:34

We will find out. Before it was Xebec and IG working on the production for Yamato 2199.

Kamijou Touma IB · 2016-03-28, 17:20

That is weird the Star blazers is on the sheet. Maybe that is a good thing and the whole series will get release in the USA this time. Love the refit and the wave motion gun is back (No surprise there).

I'd love for it to get released here, but the people who had the license were shit at marketing. I'd suggest importing it if you really have to have it.

Ithekro · 2016-04-06, 00:01

Importing of someplace like Amazon.jp is the sure way to get them as they release. If they follow all their previous Yamato 2199 releases, it will have English subtitles and be region free on Blu-disc.

Prod. IG and Xebec is sibling under the parent company IG port.
So I think it is most likely one of the two or both of them.

The April update of ourstarblazers.com has released some great information on season 2!

Space Battleship Yamato 2202, Report 1 | CosmoDNA

Ship’s Log #13

The biggest chunk of 2202 news came from the ever-reliable Yamato Crew Premium fan club magazine, which carried interviews with both Producer Shoji Nishizaki and writer Harutoshi Fukui. Translations could not be completed in time for this update of Cosmo DNA, but will follow in the next one. However, thanks to this blog, we know some important highlights.

The interview with Shoji Nishizaki reveals the following:
• The Yamato logo has been changed from the style inYamato 2199, which was lifted from the original 1974 series. Director Nobuyoshi Habara felt strongly that it should be changed to the more vertical style that became the standard from 1978 onward.
• The English Star Blazers name was added with an eye toward overseas developments and the Hollywood film version. The overseas expansion of 2199 was “delayed,” but this should be less so with 2202 in the mix.
• In one of the photos, a white board in the background has the rough image of what could be Andromeda. Details are blurry, but the outline is self-evident.
From the interview with Harutoshi Fukui:
• The bulk of the article is an analysis of Farewell to Yamato, which serves as the root of 2202. The theme of “love” is somewhat embarrassing since the word has been abused to the point of mediocrity. But since “love” was the motivation for Yamato, there is no choice but to embrace it. If it were rephrased to be more contemporary, it would be “putting love to the test.”
• The title became 2202 so that the number 2 could be emphasized for “part 2.” By doing so, it implies the possibility that the outcome could go in the direction of either Farewell or Yamato 2.
• 2201 was not chosen because an interval of one year was deemed too short. The added time also allows for more to have happened.
• If it was only a remake of Yamato 2, there might be a feeling that Farewell was being diluted, so it will be redefined to assume that Farewell is the original setting. New concepts will combine with original parts that are carefully reproduced, but it is first and foremost a continuation of Yamato 2199 rather than a remake of Farewell. Some concepts will be modified because of what was established in 2199. Two of the biggest are the Wave-Motion Gun problem and Yuki’s memory loss.

Magazine centerspread art: “Heroes Hill” by Yoichi Fukano
• The series will run for 26 episodes.
• Kodai feels alienated on the revived Earth, a sense of stagnation and despair.
• The treaty between Okita and Starsha (over use of the Wave-Motion Gun) is casually dismissed and the world is caught up in a Wave-Motion Gun fever.
• With both Farewell and Yamato 2, the story took a while to get going, but 2202 will move quickly from the beginning.
• There is no desire to dismiss any of 2199, but since the staff lineup has changed a few other changes should be expected. Like Gundam Unicorn (also written by Mr. Fukui), the direction will be to return to the feel of the original. The 2199 characters will not be completely changed, but the intervening years have been harsh, and their appearances will reflect this while remaining consistent.
• Yamato’s original naniwa-bushi [ballad of obligation and compassion] will be maintained in 2202 along with a feeling of urgency and density.
• As of February 25, the script was being written for Episode 10. The intention is to debut in early 2017.
• When the interviewer asked Mr. Fukui about the sad parts of Farewell that make fans uneasy, his answer was that they are creating a story that nestles close to the heart of a present-day person.
• Finally, it was mentioned by Makoto Kobayashi that the design of Andromeda is in the capable hands of Junichiro Tamamori (who designed all the UNCF ships from stem to stern, including Yamato).

TZoli · 2016-04-15, 11:24

Now I'm intrigued by the new Andromeda design! I wonder how close my interpretation of it to this variant!
The upper right yellow paper drawing not sure if shows Andromeda, Yamato, an EDF ship (EDF Musashi????) or an alien vessel (Gatlantean? Gamillan?) though it's nose reminds me of Andromeda's twin Wave Motion Cannon openings!
As for the 3rd drawing, could it be an early interpretation of Gatlantis itself? The White Comet?
