- Arcadia of My Youth (わが青春のアルカディア Waga Seishun no Arukadia) is an anime film depicting the origin of Leiji Matsumoto's seminal character Captain Harlock. At one time, it was considered to be the central hub of the so-called Leijiverse with the events depicted in other works such as Galaxy Express 999 and 1978's Space Pirate Captain Harlock television series occurring sometime after
My all time favorite animated film right there. The anguish of the opening scene..the music..it's all so dramatic. The scoring of Albinoni's "Adagio" with spaceships is absolutely beautiful. The post-apocalyptic feel of the free voice of Arcadia. This movie sort of made me depressed, as a 5 year old Swedish boy, but it was so worth it. Hail to the king of space, Captain Harlock!
grew up with the 78 series, harlock is my favourite anime character of all time, but funny enough i only watched this movie for the first time 3 years ago, it blew me away, of all my harlock discs this is the one i’ll never get rid off😄
Svensk jag med. Den är underbar denna. Fullkomligt otrolig faktiskt. Men en film för djupingar. Som med all annan Matsumoto egentligen. Den har stannat med mig sen 80talet. Ser den iaf en gång om året.
You should do more of this, where you go back to older movies both that you are discovering now and that you feel nostalgic about.
I suggested before (and do so again) you do a review of the Transformers movie from 1986.
I think we will do that one! :D
Be gentle. There is copious amounts of cheese, but some great lines of dialogue that are still kick ass today.
I fucking love that movie!!
I remember having this movie on VHS. found it in a clearance sale at my local video store that was shutting down it is a good movie.
The sounds, the music, the voice acting in the dubbed version are what make this a timeless classic. Those late 70s, early 80s sounds are now a haunting reminder of times before everything fell apart with 4 decades of continuous Reaganomics and hollowing-out of our landscapes and cities.
Wasn't there a CGI Harlock movie. I saw it I think last year and it was pretty epic.
Its on Netflix last I checked. its a good one.
They went on to make the excellent Gantz:O. Also available on Netflix.
日本からです。いやぁ~嬉しいですね。我が日本のアニメーションを敬愛してくれる方がいらっしゃるのは驚きましたね。しかも私の敬愛する松本 零士先生とは光栄です。これからも日本のアニメーションを宜しくお願いします。(⌒‐⌒)
from Japan. I'm happy. I was surprised that some people loved Japanese animation. Moreover, I am honored to be my beloved Professor Leiji Matsumoto. We look forward to your continued support of Japanese animation. (⌒-⌒)
I love Galaxy Express 999 and was introduced because of your top 10 anime video, I will defienetly check out Arcadia of My Youth. Although I'm not sure if you know but there is a direct sequel movie to Galaxy Express 999 called Adieu Galaxy Express 999. Its so epic, seeing Tetsuro go for another journey on the train
Lardo Don't forget the amazing series Galaxy Express 999 that the movies were based on! ^_^
I know I'm very late here, but I wanted to say that this video, in part, inspired me to create the world's largest English-speaking fan community for Leiji Matsumoto. After I watched it, I reached out to Johnny and asked him to talk about more Leijiverse content, and he told me to do it myself! Instead of getting pissy about it, I just did it! A great look back at a classic anime.
I have this on VHS. I Love Harlock he was the true OG of Cool.
Captain Harlock is the Original Anime Badass
How did I miss this?!?! Great work, Johnny! This is one of my all-time faves. So indicative of 1970's era anime, from the music to the visuals. Very nostalgic film for me. :)
"Esmereldas"? "Tochimo"?
Ikr
Is this the same park area where Johnny, on that one fateful day, decided to skip school for 2 weeks to play Dragon Warrior 2?
When vic's away johnny get's his way
I watched 999 because of your old videos. Might have to check this out!
Well done review Johnny! Big 80's anime fan. I just picked up Gun Frontier: Hopalong Harlock which is another one to check out too if you're a Leiji fan.
This reminds me that I still have Harlock Saga lying around. Wondering if you enjoyed that. Perhaps a review down the road?
at first I thought it has something to do with skies of arcadia :)
I remember seeing this back in the day on cable. Great flick!
passion!!! loved this: we need more w both of you doing these nostalgic reviews
Ah yes, Harlock ! This is my favorite film of all time. I should cosplay as Esmereldas though few would know whom I was cosplaying.
MY FAVORITE MOVIE OF ALL TIME! I LIVE FREE UNDER MY FLAG!
Please do more Blu Ray reviews like this!!! Especially anime and other classics.
Did not know you have another channel.
I have a DVD release, did they do a restoration for the video and sound for this version?
Tochiro, not Tochimo. SMH
Arcadia of My Youth is such a cool name for a movie
Oh, you love your old school anime Johnny :D
Thanks😊
this was one of the first anime movies I ever saw.
Johnny, you might remember a few years ago I met Leiji Matsumoto and he signed my program for this movie, not a day I will ever forget
Why did you wait so long to watch it?
Loved this
I enjoyed every minute of video I love happy console gamer and I will definitely check this movie out

All i see is the Baseball field in the back! Go D'Backs!
We get it, it came out in the 80s, please stop telling us every 20 seconds, you already have it plastered on the bottom of the screen.
