"There is so much writing in English on Japanese cinema that can't be accepted at face value — not because the writers are careless, but because the differences in culture and language are just too intricate. When I see August Ragone's name on a piece of writing, it gives me permission to place my faith in it completely. Among Japanese fantasy film historians, he's the best working in English." —Tim Lucas, Video Watchdog

Animation looks fantastic! SBY is one of the classic sci-fi stories and I remember being blown away watching Star Blazers for the first time as a teen. I'm looking forward to watching the reboot!

Thanks for posting this, it looks amazing! Like it will have everything I loved about the series, but with better animation. I can't wait to see the whole thing.
