Link of the day

I so want to see this.

Star Blazers was one of the reasons I ran home from school everyday. Had to, so I could catch the show. No TiVo back then.

Star Blazers was the Americanized version of "Space Battleship: Yamato." (You can always count on anime titles to be concrete statements of the basic plot device.) The English script stuck somewhat closely to the original: The Earth has been under constant bombardment from space by conquering aliens. To fight back, and to go to a particular planet to obtain the machinery to restore the Earth's ecology, humans have secretly rebuilt the largest Japanese battleship of World War II, the Yamato, into a spaceship. The Yamato has one year to reach the planet Iscandar and return to Earth, with the bad-guy Gamelons fighting them every step of the way.

More than faintly ridiculous. But it was all kinds of fun.

And it had the best opening theme ever. Search for it - you'll find it.
