Hmmm from what I read Legend of the Galactic heroes is vastly better, though the 1 million ship Imperial Invasion fleet was a little "impressive" compared to 200 systems having only 200 million people, and yet a fleet of 1 million warships (not the Entire Reichsflotte either) has 100 million soldiers.
Anyway lol I've found a site describing "Starblazers" and it sounds like they totally f%6ked with the story of Yamato yet kept all of the "Yamato" footage. Including that in Yamato "main characters died" while in Starblazer's they replaced the manned tanks with "drones" and the main characters that were wounded "will recover" and yet are never seen again. lol
Not to mention that the japs thought we Yanks were too dumb to remember the Yamato and decided not to let the Americans include that scene. Although having the Americans salute the sinking Yamato would probobly have had a lot of americans laughing since most of the pilots Cheered the destruction of the Yamato heh. Anyway They also have "American Style' attack runs taking place on the Yamato in space.....hmmm someone's still a little bitter methinks
But anyway that's just from what i read I never saw it so for all I know those few web sites were just BSing
