February 27, 2012 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

This is the second trailer for Space Battleship Yamato 2199. It’s a whopper; weighing in at just shy of 4 minutes long. Space Battleship Yamato 2199 is a remake of the 1974 series (which was known as Star Blazers to some Western audiences) and looks like it’ll be following pretty much the same cast and […]
