One interesting thing that I find fascinating about the ship class of the remake is the Dreadnought. Thanks to the modern Sci-fi we often associate this particular name as a class of the biggest, baddest ship of any given faction in any given Sci-fi setting nowadays and forget its significance in our naval history. But for Yamato 2202, it actually parallels the original namesake, HMS Dreadnought, that launched in 1906, in that it signifies an emergence of a new generation of ships that renders all its predecessor completely obsolete. (Pre-dreadnought battleships/ Pre-Iscandar Cosmo Navy ships) So, it being called Dreadnought class is actually quite fitting even if they're not that big when compared to "Dreadnought" in other Sci-Fi.
Especially trusting organizations, funny thing tho that they promise everyone that they shall solve each of the worlds problems, yet some of them still behaving like cults.
@@merafirewing6591 & to be fair when you fighting an enemy that demands your total eradication & that enemy is winning? (gatlantis) any treaties & promises go out the window as everyone picks up their wmd's to survive.
Agreed unfortunately if it wasn’t for the lack of technology or limitations then humanity wouldn’t have suffered as badly as it did during the gamilas invasion
Not really, the Earth fleet fired the first shot on the Gamilas scouting party without warning. Had they not initiated the war, they might be able to negotiate into an immigration & technology exchange deal seen in 2202 and 2205 without blood shed. Also, the cruisers and Kongo have spinal shock cannon (aka Yamato's primary cannons) and had successfully taken out several Gamilas ships, seen in Yamato 2202 "Documentary" OVA.
@@EdwardChan.999 Source from the remake and not the originals then? Nothing in the original series or movies OVAs suggested this. (I have all originals btw and hope to get the new series soon!)
I love the detail that before receiving wave motion technology, they used shock cannons as spinal mount super weapons, but once they had the tech it became their standard gun.
My favorite is definitely the Yamato class battleship! They had the original focused wave motion gun which was a nightmare weapon to be unleashed! Plus her heavy shock cannons were no slouch either! Because those shock cannons torn Gamilon to pieces, it ripped an entire continental shelf on Gamilon, and that was BEFORE the upgrade!! Plus the bow and stack missiles, and pulse laser turrets made the Yamato (a.k.a. Argo) a killing machine when unleashed! Both Captains Avatar and Wildstar knew when and how to use the best weapon for the maximum advantage!
Thank you for doing this! As a long time fan of Star Blazers and one who saw it when it was first out on Tv, I've been waiting a lifetime for a breakdown of the series. Absolutely loved the designs of these ships - beats Star Trek and Star Wars anyday. The tech not be as advanced nor as realistic as Trek, but at least no "quantum" everything as a problem solver.
@@Toshiro_Mifune Sorry, never read it or even heard of it. Most of my anime watching was done decades ago. The last things I've seen are Digimon and parts of the new Voltron series. Never enough time to see everything!
I was starting 7th grade in 80 when we got cable in my town and this came on early 7 am weekdays and I had to be in school at 8am....dsmn the station...my first foray into jap anime.
Found the starblazers theme song not long ago on a mp3 download site. Great song and earth only has so many days in the year until total destruction. I came to school late when the series finale was on.....
There is also the tiger 1, the black single pilot craft with two cannons and a lot of missiles that was piloted by Akira Yamamoto in 2202, but I understand why there isn’t even a brief mention about it as we know pretty much nothing about it.
I wonder if you would do the UN Spacy now reformed to the NUN'S from the Macross franchise. I mean both series did start from the same studio, SDF Macross and Star Blazers both come from Studio Nue. Also just the amount of fighters in Macross man you might have a fun time researching the in depth lore of a lot of mass production fighters and the designs are all done by Shoji Kawamori for the fighters, and all of them are sick and slick designs for fighters.
I find it interesting that Yamato's designation code is BBY-01, and Ginga's BBY-03, so that makes me wonder what happened to BBY-02, if there ever was one
Unlike the Ginga, the Musashi actually filled its role as an Exploration ship more with its destination heading to the center of the Milky way Galaxy by 2220
Thanks for all you do. I loved your Dilgar Fleet analysis. Are you likely to do one on the Orieni Empire Fleet from Babylon 5? There's about as much info on them as the Dilgar though pictures are harder to come by.
Wave Motion Gun of the UNCF would simply anihilate Exegol, before it ships could be launched. Even then, much more flexible FTL of the SBY universe, would give signifant advantage to the Gamilas-Earth fleet. Simply jump in, fire all munitions, and jump out.
@@tankguy5312 SBY ships can smack SW ships, unless if they have planetary shields then theyll have to resort to using wave motion guns which will obliterate the shields and planets
Makes me wonder what if the galactic alliance between the imperial remnants and the rebels manage to produce their own positron cannons from the Gamilas vessels that they captured.
@@tankguy5312 they won't capture as in 2202, the gamilas empire is on good terms with earth and them and earth just blown up exegol saving the galaxy. Any salvaged gamilas positron cannons would be inferior to the UNCF positron cannon. It would probably be used by pirates due to its low energy cost unless they get access to wave motion technology in which turns every ship into a planet sterilizer. If antimatter weapons had the same range of turbo lasers, it would be fired when there is a gap in enemy shielding to exploit the vulnerability.
Arrrgh my ears! This is probably a little bit of just stickler nature, this video is absolutely amazing by good lord the pronunciation leaves a lot to be desired. Oh well! The information is still great and I applaud you, though perhaps in the future, might be nice to double check the pronunciation of certain foreign words (Not helped by the show making up their own words, some of the Garmillan ships have.... difficult names) Prime example, Murasame is not pronounced mura-same, it's "Mura-sah-may" - just for future reference. Anyway, critique aside, great vid, wishing you all the best and i'll be looking out for more in the future! (Now that I think about it you might have already seen people correcting you in the past since it's quite an old vid but eh, another one never hurts)
Enjoyed the commentary been a fan of star Blazers since I watched it on TV as a little one the only issue I have is your mispronunciation of the flagship (Yama mow toe) Other than this is a great video
It’s technically wrong that there’s only 2 Yamato class. There’s actually 3 which is Yamato BBY-1 Musashi BBY-2 and Ginga BBY-03. Musashi never appear in 2202 but the wiki confirms there’s a second Yamato class. And since Ginga has the number BBY-03 while Yamato is BBY-01, there should be a ship in between the 2 ships which is the Musashi BBY-02.
Alot of spelling problems here lol But other than that its a good vid Also on the yamato class the second ship which is named the ginga doesnt really have a wave motion gun instead it has a kind of cosmo reverse system gun
@@merafirewing6591i mean the black analyzer is ginga’s AI and it could perdict so perfectly to the point its so invincible, however it also could initiate plan G which is why ginga’s crew were female because uhm Anyways she shot it so that the command ai doesn’t go into another planet instead of helping andromeda by amplifying the WMG

Starsha: “Promise me you’ll never use this weapon again!”
UNCN: “haha, WMG and Time Vault go brrrrrrrrr!”
thats why making promise with gov is like making promise with a snake. To be fair, only captain promised Starsha that and no official record with gov

still waiting for a analysis of the gamilas fleet
I was starting 7th grade in 80 when we got cable in my town and this came on early 7 am weekdays and I had to be in school at 8am....dsmn the station...my first foray into jap anime.
space battleship yamato is one of my favorite battleship and best anime yet underrated
I think the same way, but i think that the gamilas olsow have some grait ships.
My Favorit is the Andromeda class Battleship and the Space Battleship Yamato
Yamato is the most OP but I would assume it's also because of the plot armor. 😂
The wave-motion cannon has enough power to destroy a protostar. Later it was upgraded to have six-shot capabilities. Much like a revolver
There's 3 Yamato class built, you might forgot it because Musashi never show up
A great fan of star blazers and the Yamato is my favourite ship
Found the starblazers theme song not long ago on a mp3 download site. Great song and earth only has so many days in the year until total destruction. I came to school late when the series finale was on.....

Hmm nice but forgot the Lexington carrier from old series but was reintroduced to the 2205 series and the seagull
The second of the Yamato class didn't have a wave motion gun. It had an amplifier.
The cosmo reverse system/cosmo DNA?
Be nice to see an analysis of the Robotech Defense Force as well as the Zentraedi and Invid fleet's...
🙃 oh shit Robotech again
Nicely done.
Sill waiting for the great Gamilon fleet analysis.
I find it interesting that Yamato's designation code is BBY-01, and Ginga's BBY-03, so that makes me wonder what happened to BBY-02, if there ever was one
I hope that we will find this out in the next film.
ムサシ(MUSASHI)だと思います。
Unlike the Ginga, the Musashi actually filled its role as an Exploration ship more with its destination heading to the center of the Milky way Galaxy by 2220
Surprised that there was no mention of the wave motion patrol ship. Unofficially this ship is dubbed as the E-class type destroyer
Thanks for all you do. I loved your Dilgar Fleet analysis. Are you likely to do one on the Orieni Empire Fleet from Babylon 5? There's about as much info on them as the Dilgar though pictures are harder to come by.
This is good stuff and I want this anime to get more love
The UN Cosmo Navy is a fascinating topic.
ginga window reminds of different sci fi vessels
I hope the canon will tell about the explanation fleet including Musashi and Laboratory Aquarius.
Mine is the Andromeda class Battleship
Can you make the analysis of Earth Federation Ships from Mobile Suit Gundam (Universal Century Timeline) please ?
This is a stupid question from me
Question: can you analysis the Navies of legends of the Galactic heroes
Agreed
Space battleship yamato 2202 UNCF and gamilas empire fleet vs final order fleet at exegol. Who would win.
Wave Motion Gun of the UNCF would simply anihilate Exegol, before it ships could be launched. Even then, much more flexible FTL of the SBY universe, would give signifant advantage to the Gamilas-Earth fleet. Simply jump in, fire all munitions, and jump out.
Does the wave motion gun can also whipped out the mandalorian starships from the old republic.

Pretty sure the WMG can destroy things bigger than Australia. I remember it cracking a moon in half.
Boy did you miss a lot of classes in this video hope there is a part 2.
kongo class had a prow mounted small yield wave motion gun not a shock cannon.
