I still get the chills listening to the Star Blazers theme music :)

My favorite of all time anime series. Corrupted when I first saw it in 1980; never stopping loving it! Coolest heroes (Avatar, Wildstar, Venture) Coolest heroine/first anime crush (Nova) Coolest villain/antihero (Desslok). Anyone who has never seen this show is just deprived.

I don't care what season or what version of the show we are watching, that song and music will always move me. I get chills everytime I hear it. I loved the series including the remake!

I loved getting home from school and watching this, back in the day. Most contemporary anime is so nonsensical that it's unrecognizable. Bring back '70s anime!

Conroy & Hardy were the Star Force's best pilots. I remember crying when Conroy died. He was 100% soldier. He refused to die until he finished his mission. KZfaq doesn't show the complete ending of that scene. Starblazers turned little boys into real men. I learned a lot about honor watching this.

I still remember the morning that I watched my first episode of Star Blazers. It was a Season 2 episode; I didn't know any backstory, I didn't know what the Star Force was, I didn't know what the IJN Yamato was, but it didn't matter - I was totally and irrevocably hooked by the first 15 seconds of this intro.

I remember watching this in the 70's & 80's. Starblazers is the best anime series ever!

My god! The intro music alone just brings back the memories. They showed this on WUTV Buffalo wayyy back in the early 1980's.

One of the Best most EPIC themes EVER

I've been watching Yamato 2199 on KZfaq. What a great series. THAT is how you reboot a classic. I hope the also do a new adaptation of the Comet Empire series.

I fucken loved this cartoon in the '80s! It was great because the story continues through all episodes!

Epic theme song! Loved this show as a kid.

I remember this show being on new york's wnew channel 5 at 6:30 am after the new zoo revue even though the show have bounced from afternoon to morning timeslot!

I still love it, and yes, I am still a kid... on the inside.

My 1st Anime. Before I ever knew the word Anime. Growing up in Maine we didn’t get much diversity. This was great & I found out at school that i was the only girl that watched it.

幸せ！其れから実に素晴らしい！

Nostalgic af

thank you man bring me back those days before going to school and 5min p penalty being late I do it again happy memories.

to be pedantic, the comet empire storyline WAS a movie first, it was popular enough to warrant being adapted into a full series, although with certain changes made to the ending. (the movie was called "farewell to space battleship yamato")

...just like on WATL 36 Atlanta in the early 80s

We’re off to outer space We're leaving mother Earth To save, the human race Our Star Blazers A cry for help, a desperate plight Makes the star force reunite The comet empire awaits We must be strong and brave To stop his evil ways If Zordon plot should work He’ll destroy the universe We’ll fight the comet empire Battle through the raging fire Filled with the hope that Earth will survive We’ll keep peace alive with our Star Blazers

@newfie2keith: Before my family and I relocated to Buffalo in 1980, I used to see this show on WGNO TV 26 down in N'yawlinz.

If you like that, the new Space Battleship Yamato 2199 was released last April in Japan. The 26-episode arc will be shown on 7 movies. It's the same Quest for Iscandar series using today's animation and new voice actors. Haven't heard whether the English Dubbed version will be made for America yet.

The Comet Empire! There we go! Classic!

I had a model of the Yamato as a kid, my god all the guns took me forever!!!

I know it's a translation and who knows what Kodai actually said, but when the Star Force FINALLY has the Comet Empire on the ropes and he yells, "All guns open fire on the Comet Empire!" or something like that...just so awesome. So many losses for the Earth and Star Force to get there, but when you're headed for the checkmate it doesn't matter what's left on the board just need what's necessary to win.

Oh holy crap, this was top of the list of school chat next day in year 3-5

Best series ever !

The Comet Empire gave zero F's

Keep hope alive!

Love these memories 🤘💀🤘 Lyrics?

Great theme. Good sci fi cartoon.

嬉しい😄！

WTTG Channel 5 in Washington DC, after school, 1980

The new Japanese reboot is really good too. They kept many of the classic features. Just a visual update mostly. I'm impressed with it. www.crunchyroll.com/star-blazers-space-battleship-yamato-2199

Science, get off your asses and create a time machine already! I need to go back!

懐かしい！

Who is being shown in golden light between 0:34 and 0:36? It's amazing artwork....

RAD!

lyrics, please?

Yous love it or hate it me do not care me love it

Why did the Yamato have an anchor on the side?

Meh, I don't like yamato 2199 much. I've watched it subbed, and it's pretty bad in my opinion. Though that was only, like, the pilot.

My favorite part of the second season intro starts at 1:00 through the end when Yamato is flying at the axis of the Comet Empire city blasting it with the shock cannons
