Here's a few episode/synopses guides I put together for
Space Battleship Yamato (aka Star Blazers). This is an awesome
TV series which still holds up today. These synopses are based on the original
Japanese versions, which differ just slightly from the American "Star Blazers"
version. An analysis of the music for the first season's soundtrack can be
found
here.
These synopses are somewhat light on character arcs, since I feel that those
elements are best experienced in the show itself. However I included all of
the strategic and tactical elements, which I found to be one of the strongest
and most unique parts of the show. Click each link for complete episode
guides.
