PAS UNE CRITIQUE!

Vu sur Kissanime.

En dépit du titre Saraba Yamato, je ne m'attendais pas à voir tout ce qui s'est déroulé sur mon écran à l'exception bien sûr du "sacrifice" du navire. A propos d'écran, je préviens que ce grand spectacle vaut certainement l'effort d'être affiché sur un beau téléviseur cathodique plutôt qu'un petit moniteur de PC comme j'ai utilisé.

Après une introduction douteuse désespérée de susciter chez son public une certaine peur (menace écrasante sur fond d'orgue), on pourrait suspecter un mauvais film. Mais...
This was such an epic space-opera. It maintained some typical Yamato thrilling moments while succeeding in being more emotional than the first story, helped by an even better soundtrack (great organ theme for the White Comet Empire). A few incoherencies with the previous Yamato might hurt but I guess things like Desler breathing in other species atmospheres was choosed because wearing a space suit would reduced his aura.
The slightly less rough art and good mecha-design might be the results of its theatrical nature but it was poorly animated for a movie, it even suffers from the TV show's problem: bad continuity (to a lesser extent, though). A chance the direction is there to make up.
Finally, it was a bit too long. (I'm sure the same result would have been achieved with 20-30less minutes, giving more time to work on other scenes too)

Enjoyment: 5/5
Score: 8/10 It could have been great (9) without those problems who don't suit a cinema release.
