Uchuu Senkan Yamato 2199

By 2199, Earth has been reduced to an irradiated wasteland by the Gamilas Empire's relentless planet-bomb attacks, forcing the remnants of humanity into underground cities. With extinction approaching, a message from the distant planet Iscandar offers one last hope: a device capable of restoring the devastated planet.

Humanity entrusts that hope to the space battleship Yamato, powered by technology sent from Iscandar. Under Captain Juuzou Okita, Susumu Kodai and a crew drawn from Earth's last defenders set out across 168,000 light-years of hostile space. Reaching Iscandar and returning with its salvation will demand everything they have, while Gamilas stands determined to ensure they never make it home.
