I am someone with prior exposure to a lot of the Matsumoto-verse, including several of the older Harlock series/movies. And I really enjoyed this one!

It's in a completely new continuity (surprise!) and some of the characters have changed. But in my opinion it worked really well. And it's not just stunningly beautiful, but also succeeds to embed you in the atmosphere of it all. To suck you right into that world.

And it comes with a big twist (twofold even), that is well executed.

A few minus points here and there, where I felt that something didn't work out well or felt somewhat rushed. And yes, some things won't make sense if you think too hard about them. But it's definitely worth the watch and at least for most people buying the DVD/Blueray. I got it within hours of first seeing the movie at a convention.

Visually stunning. Great CGI and that it. Must say, for all ppl who watch old series, this is a big miss. And for the new fans please don't start with this.

Very good to whom never seen nothing of captain Harlock and for who not know him. But whom already seen the series and know who is/what is, maybe will be a bit disappointing.

Good sci-fi movie with a dark atmosphere. CGI & animation wise, it is the best 3D anime I've seen (yes, latter can be much worse).

Harlock is back... with an outstanding CG! You'll love it!

I might not appreciate this movie as much as those that have watched the TV series and all the other movies, but as my first exposure to this franchise, it was good. The visuals are truly stunning and captivating; however, the human facial expressions are stiff. I'd recommend this movie solely based on the CGI, but plot is also decent too.

This was my first touch with Harlock's universe, so the story was a little bit rushed for me but overall it was a good watch. It's a must see because of CG. Visually stunning!!!

Even though the movie dosen't meet all expectation to render the dark romantisn of the timeless Matsumoto iconic character, it's still a respectable try. Recommended!

Different from canonical Harlock, but still good. Changed personalities. Yattaran, old good Yattaran, what they do to you... But immortal hero? My ass =

· nudityNudity is the state of wearing no clothing and exposing the bare skin or intimate parts. NO FRONTAL NUDITY (visible genitals) = 1.5 STARS OR LESS. Especially gratuitous fanservice shows tend to show their characters frequently without any clothes, though often hiding genitals through the means of additions like steam. +
· castno description set
· · male protagonistThis anime has a male protagonist. weightless
· · predominantly male castThe anime features a mostly male cast, i.e. female characters are rare. Example: Reverse harem setting with a plethora of bishounen. weightless
· actionAction anime usually involve a fairly straightforward story of good guys versus bad guys, where most disputes are resolved by using physical force. It often contains a lot of shooting, explosions and fighting. ***
· · space battlesThere are space battles in this anime. Usually between Earth forces and some alien invader, but ship to ship skirmishes in deep space are just as common. *
· speculative fictionSpeculative fiction is an umbrella genre encompassing fiction with certain elements that do not exist in the real world, often in the context of supernatural, futuristic or other imaginative themes. This includes, but is not limited to, science fiction, fantasy, superhero fiction, horror, utopian and dystopian fiction, fairytale fantasy, supernatural fiction, as well as combinations thereof.
· · science fictionScience fiction stories usually focus on how situations could be different in the future when we are more technologically advanced; due to either our own achievements or having met with other civilizations whom we have learned from. ***
· · · alienThis entity or creature was born on another world than the main characters. **
· · · space operaSpace opera is a sub-genre of fiction that emphasizes romantic adventures in space. Space opera generally involves large-scale conflicts between opponents with powerful abilities and technology. **
· · · space piratesPirates who operate from a spaceship instead of a normal ship. Their targets are other spaceships or whole planets. weightless
· · · space travelSpace Travel usually refers going to space or travelling there with or without a spacecraft. There are different forms of space travel like Interplanetary travel, Interstellar travel or Intergalactic travel. Since it isn`t possible to travel faster than light, most anime series involve some sort "sub-space travel mechanism" as a way to travel faster than light. ***
· DESCRIPTION MISSINGThe description for this entry is missing. e.g plot, biography... Please help by adding it, and remove this tag afterwards. Thank you. weightless
· Japanese productionno description set weightless
· placeThe places the anime can take place in. Includes more specific places such as a country on Earth, as well as more general places such as a dystopia or a mirror world.
· · spaceThe final frontier. ***
· · · other planetThe anime will fit this category if some or all of the action takes place on another planet which is supposedly in the same universe as Earth, not a complete fantasy world; usually there has to be some concept of space travel. The Latin name for Earth - Terra, would also pass the condition of being in the same universe as Earth. Basically, even mentioning of Earth existing or having existed would be enough. Although Moon is a moon, it also qualifies as Other Planet. **
· · · shipboardBeam me up, Scotty! Space stations (think Death Star) also count. Basically, this category is to tell if the setting takes place onboard a spaceship in space. This category is not applicable if the spaceship lies on a planet and never actually gets into space. **+
· CGIComputer-generated imagery (CGI) or computer animation is the art of creating moving images via the use of computers. Increasingly it is created by means of 3D computer graphics, though 2D computer graphics are still widely used for stylistic, low bandwidth, and faster real-time rendering needs. weightless
· · 3D CG animationAbbreviation for "three-dimensional computer generated animation" or "computer graphics" (CGI). The traditional 2D art is enhanced by 3D imagery developed through computer modeling software. Done in the right way, this union of 3D in a 2D animated world can be a very beautiful relationship. weightless
· stereoscopic imagingThis anime was shown in cinema rooms with stereoscopic 3D capabilities, released on Blu-ray 3D, or available for other stereoscopic 3D capable devices like the Nintendo 3DS or the Sharp AQUOS "NERV Edition" SH-06D smartphone. weightless
· alcoholAlcohol (or more scientifically, ethanol), is one of the world`s oldest psychoactive substances. It is traditionally found in the form of a beverage such as beer, wine, or liquor, although in some contexts it can be inhaled to produce similar or intoxication, and some people prefer another way of consuming beverage-form alcohol. +
· crimeThe underworld we talk about here is not to be confused with the place where people are believed to go after they die, but the general term for organized crime. It is a shady world, unknown to most people, where illegal things like murder, smuggling, drug dealing and similar are happening daily. Groups known to be acting in this world are for example the mafia or the yakuza.
· · piratePirates are people who attack ships on the high seas to rob others of their treasure... usually. Others calling themselves pirates may be focusing on the freedom and romance in the piracy-related tropes. They may be after the One Piece or a spaceship full of diamonds, too. Real-life pirates were extremely common a few centuries ago, but nowadays very few still exist. The word also refers to people who illegally download copyrighted works. Arr, avast! Thar be pirates in these dark waters, matey! ***
· disasterA disaster is a large-scale situation that causes great loss of or damage or threat to life, health, property, society, or the environment, irrespective of its source or cause. Disasters have substantial, long-lasting negative repercussions, and great effort must be spent in order to undo or mitigate their effects. *
· · post-apocalypticAfter a major cataclysm has occurred. World War III, an alien invasion, plague, global warming or some other general disaster are common themes to build a post-apocalyptic world upon, where the effects were severe enough that mankind barely survived. *
· · post-warAn armed conflict has ended not too long ago, devastation of the world or society is still evident. *
· immortalityImmortality is the ability to live for an infinite or inconceivably vast length of time. Humans, whose life span is limited, have long sought ways to extend their lives. In fiction, immortals are not quite as uncommon as in real life, and the possible implications of endless or very long lives are often explored. While many may wish for immortality, it may be little more than a curse for the few who have it. weightless
