Overview of “Yamato Forever REBEL 3199”
Yamato Forever, also known as Star Blazers REBEL 3199, is an upcoming 26-episode full-length anime series and a direct sequel to Space Battleship Yamato 2205: A New Voyage. This series was announced in the final scene of the second 2205 film, Part 2: Starsha.
The anime’s official website describes the story as follows:
“The year is 2207 AD. Two years have passed since the disappearance of Garmillas and Iskandar. Suddenly, a mysterious gigantic celestial body ‘Grand Reverse’ appears in the solar system. The Earth Defense Force’s strenuous efforts are in vain, and ‘Grand Reverse’ has many layers. A group of descending soldiers appeared without a sound, easily breaking through the defenses.
A multi-legged tank lands. In the blink of an eye, the capital was captured. Is there no way to resist Earth? At that time, the crew of the old Yamato fleet receives a top secret command. “Gather to Yamato!” Then a mysterious singing voice is heard. The mysterious man mutters, “I’m back.” What is the surprising identity of the invaders? With the survival of humanity at stake, Space Battleship Yamato’s journey to an unexplored space and time begins now.

Furthermore, Starsha’s orphan Sasha will also be heavily involved. A tense and intense battle unfolds in which all the characters act according to their own will, and the meaning of the battle is once again questioned.
