THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE.
----------------------------------------
Some of the enemy do have honour and it looks like the Yamato has taken one on board as a prisoner/passenger. I suspect this may have ramifications for the future...
Please don't feed the trolls!

The enemy brought on board apparently lets it be known the Earth fired first..... So there is some major story line changes...

Love the 'ghost' bit on the station... no idea where that is going.

And the things various crew member is doing covertly...

Wait, this anime started airing in April and it's still not done? What's going on here? I started watching this and caught up not to long ago.

It's cause it's not an 'usual' airing - they're ovas that are first released as movies in theathers (one movie = 3 or 4 episodes) there in Japan. So yeah, it'll probably take another year (or more?) to get it done.

---

Liked this episode, but I'm not sure what they're going to do with these changes in the story line.
As always we have these situations...



There's never a good side, a bad side, it's always relative.

Ah, and totally a guess though, but maybe


Anyways! Let the wait begin!
I still don't know if it's a good thing that now they have a Gamillus inside the Yamato, simply like that... let's see how this will unfold.

-.

The OVA will be done in Autumn 2013, but a tv series with the exact same episodes will start airing in Spring.

So all episodes will be out at the end of Summer 2013(when the OVA is at Episode 22).
So you'll need to start following it weekly once episodes 18-22 are out.

Yeah I guess so, too. Since even president of a democratic nation labeled Soviet Union as an evil empire, it wouldn't be surprising if Desler had brainwashed his people that way. And yes I also don't think his people are fully aware of the situation. Like Hitler didn't tell his people about genocide, probably Desler has not told his Gamillus people about the dark side yet. (If his people knew about it, they would be ashamed of the gov and themselves.)

As for the captured enemy, I hope she has enough guts and dignity to stand against the corruption of the empire.

Really can't wait for this to start airing on TV for people to start watching this. I can't get enough of this - I have no idea why, but something about all the details and characters and everything just clicks for me..

Can't wait for the 22nd when the next few episodes are released.

Yamato paying respect to the enemy, both are humans after all.

I love Akira's personality, for being a woman I'd love to be strong like her. Speaking of genders, maybe no one did notice that Akira Yamamoto in the original was a male? In the remake he's undergone a gender change! Lol still me likes. At least they introduced her older brother, love those red eyes ♥

I love the story so far, cannot wait for more Dessler. Knowing that the Gamilas can speak your language by some kind of embedded translator, makes it even more exciting!

Really liked this episode. Not all is black and white in this series, and it seems that particularly the second class Gamillians have some honourable officers on their side.

Akira is so gorgeous. Gotta admit there was something fanservicey about that wrestling with Ditz.

I wonder what the story with the ghost in the engine is? Is it one of the Iscandrian sisters who is guiding them or what?

This episode was really good. I felt major sorry for the captain of the ex 776 who as obviously a 2nd class gamillian..i mean he was not blue and well in the he looked so cool while he realized he what was going to happen. Also curious fout what Dietz said that earth attacked first. Was it just propaganda. And lol cant wait to see dessler again as well, the gamillian mastermind.

Sad to see the honorable enemy had to die like that. That said, the past few episodes have been superb.

Who needs artillery when your ship is impervious to enemy attacks?

It seems Akira is the only pilot left even though I saw a room full of them when she first joined and it appears the Gamilas share the humans fashion sense; skin tight suits for the women and loose fitting multi layered suits for the men.

Must say I'm a bit disappointed so far; maybe I've sen to many space operas already, but so far it's all been a bit cliche and predictable.

Actually it was more like the incompetent, cowardly buffoon of a commander which didn't mind killing his own men. The reaction his XO made showed his shock/disapproval of the commander's decision and I wouldn't doubt if the rest felt the same.

What an intense episode! Really amazing if you asked me, the whole setting was great and the whole honor and loyalty to their promise was just amazing!

Really great episode, let's see what's next.

Wow! The opening has changed, now more musical than before, not bad! Interesting episode that shows how many similarities there are between aliens and humans. At first I did not think that Akira's character was so present in the narrative. The battle this time is less compelling than usual, oh well! Always interesting storytelling, drawings and more, excellent. In a previous episode mentions the famous Domel, he is finally coming, Yay!

Probably because they're part of the nobility or a rich family. It's definitely not a meritocracy.

Tbh I wish that the commander of this ship (and the previous one who have daughter/Pluto base commander) defected to Yamato's side. They're pretty f*cked anyway; killing the actual Gamillan officer and the other one failed to protect Pluto base.

o7 to the crew members of this ship. That a-hole Goer even managed to escape from being sucked into the dimensional rift.

And hot damn, alien babe Melda Deitz is a total hottie!

Great episode, it reminded me of a certain episode in TTGL, to the point that I thought it was a reference (or was TTGL referencing the original Yamato show?). Anyway, cool points:
- More Norio Wakamoto is always appreciated
- Ghost Iscandarians living inside the Wave Motion Engine
- Probably a new friendship/rivalry between Akira and Melda (I even remember how her father looks like from episode 8!). Their whole sub-arc was super cool, from conversation to an awesome short skirmish with a badass soundtrack. I also love how that broken vase with blue flowers was shown twice to symbolize the shattered expectations Melda had of her own allies that betrayed her ship.

Sorry for replying almost two years later. I searched how galactic coordinates worked and it's pretty simple. The longitude is the direction where you're going from the Sun relative to the center of the Milky Way: look for 274.76° on this image you'll see that they're going towards the "east". To move "up" or "down" you use the longitude, in this episode they use a value of -12.73°, so they're going slightly "down". You're now using three dimensions, but you only know your direction, not how far you want to go, so they also have a distance value of 63.7 parsecs (~207 light-years). I recommend watching this video, it's very short and well explained without requiring deep scientific knowledge.
