Did anyone else watch Space Battleship Yamato 2199?

>>13882001
I've been interested, but I'd like to watch the other Yamato entries first.

Might I ask why? You can go into the series blind as this one is a reboot, and a superbly well-done one at that.

>>13882063
Why do that when you can just watch the original instead though?

>>13882063
Personal thing really. I feel it makes such experiences better.
It usually doesn't present any problems, except for when I want do do something like read the original Tetsujin 28 manga, or watch the first Tetsujin anime, before watching the Imagawa anime.

I did. I enjoyed it and thought it was a pretty good example of how to properly reboot a show in an entertaining way.

Also, Yuki is prime waifu material.

Some people aren't a fan of dated animation, but I guess since this is /m/ that's not really a problem.
>>13882081
That's fair enough. You should also read ourstarblazers.com's episode commentaries too. They're very insightful and offer things such as production info and differences between Space Battleship Yamato and the Star Blazers dub.
>>13882087

She was one of the originals, right?
>>13882091
That's right anon. Ghale Dessler!

>>13882001
I got it off my backlog recently. I love it, it's got a good mix of both modern day anime and pure nostalgia

>>13882074
Honestly I think anyone who watches 2199 without watching anything prior is going to miss out on a lot. A good part of the ride depends on nostalgia.

Did you watch the Odyssey of the Celestial Ark movie? It's really damn good. So hyped for season 2.

Yes. I liked it a lot.

>>13882182
Not yet. I accidentally downloaded a non-english sub. My plan is to watch the other shit from my backlog that I've downloaded (Namely Patlabor, and the LoGH Prequel OVAs) before I download anything else.

>>13882182
I didn't like the movie as much as the series, felt like they re-used that one arc.

Is the original or the remake better?

>>13882418

they both have their strong points

What's the best release of 2199?

>>13882418

Which do you prefer, SDF Macross or Frontier?

Your preference there will match up with your preference for SBY Original or remake, respectively.

>>13882456
not really.

>>13882434

I don't know about best, but the Noobsubs release has a pretty compact file space (for BD quality) and the translation is good.

>>13882456
But both SBYs are seen as good while Frontier is disliked my many on /m/

>>13882113
Well, my first favorite waifu was Lum. But yeah, I guess you could say Yuki was one of if not the originals.

It was that crazy robot that kept lifting up her dress damn it!

Akira is the superior 2199 waifu. Although Yuki has the better ass.

>>13882158
Shame about series 3's original Japanese version having only HKs, even if it's one of the weaker old works.

It's a pretty good design. I'm so mad it doesn't have a full 1/1000 scale model. If Bandai made one for the Zoelguut-class, then they can do one for the second-largest ship in the show.

>>13889317
Should be sometime within the next 1-2 years. We got a confirmation they've started pre-production sometime near the end of last year. With any luck, we'll get an official announcement before the end of 2016.

>>13889329
Thanks for the size chart anon.

>>13889339
>That guy she keeps getting shipped with made it HUGE.
I remember when people were saying he was definitely going to die. I don't think anyone saw him being a double agent for the good guys during the mutiny.

Plus he pulls off a maid outfit surprisingly well.

>>13889367
It's a bit of a shame we only saw these in a short-lived OVA series and in a pachinko machine respectively.

The scene where he gets shot and she screams really got to me. It's a nice ship in my opinion.

I can't wait to see the 2199 version of the Andromeda class in S2. Hopefully they don't job too badly.

>>13892090
I do wonder how they'll handle the WMG issue. Not sure if Starsha would approve of Earth having fleets of WMG-equipped ships, let a lone one with two WMGs.

And recently they released a new ship called the Kuroshio. It seems to be a mix between UNCN and EDF aesthetics. Possibly an interim design?
