| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- This is the beginning of the anime classic Captain Harlock. So humanity has been brainwashed into being obediant slaves and Harlock is fighting against it, all this while a thing is hurtling towards Eartg, very fascinating. I can't wait to watch more. |
| My anime list |
| Captain Harlock is sexay.:D |
 Old avatar and sig retired for now. |
| This was extremely awesome! I think I will love this. |
 |
| I loved the ship detail and designs, I'm excited for more. |
| Didn't really like it, it seemed as though it was to rushed and there was apparently some sort of closeness Harlock had with the child. I'll keep watching, though |
| "Yes, I have been deprived of emotion. But not completely. Whoever did it, botched the job." - Geralt of Rivia |
| I like the moment between Mayu and Harlock so cute. Harlock is sexy and Kei is gorgeous. |
"What has two arms, two legs, and is alive? Not your favorite character lol! xD" |
| Good opening, though I found the exposition voice over scenes more enjoyable than the bumbling military's attempts to apprehend Harlock. Nice soundtrack too. |
"I'm starting to think mal is run by Xinil generating electricity on a bicycle." - idklol |
| Not the best first episode, but it was still a good start, interesting enough for me to look forward to the story. |
 "Your sight, my delight. Will you marry me?" |
| Aw, Mayu is such a cutie. And I can already tell I will love Harlock. |
 |
| Quite a cute first episode I must say, I expected something more action wise for a first introduction, but I really loved this subtle approach to show that even the fearest men of the galaxy can have a golden heart! Let's see what kind of a story this series will offer us and what the next episode will show us! |
 |
| Dat moment, when you realize that Toeis artwork back then was better than it is nowadays. Hmm, the start didn't really impress, it was ok at best, but Harlock seems like he could turn out to be a great character. |
One Piece episode 914 & 915 & 1027 were a mistake and 957 brought the salvation - FMmatron |
| It's a decent first episode, but it didn't quite hook me. The animation and overall quality is okay, but there was a bit too much exposition and musical stuff going on for my taste. Which is okay for a first episode, I guess. Definitely not bad! I will have to watch another episode or two. |
| Found this anime by random on a streaming site, well they story is 80ish but good enough to enjoy a bit but music is pretty good and fits the atmosphere pretty well.

I'm everywhere xD But I never continued this series, maybe it's time for it. |

| Already I see some of the same themes as in Galaxy Express 999. Harlock seems like an interesting character. Previously I've seen some cameos of him in other Leiji Matsumoto works, but he had a tendency not to talk, maybe they couldn't get the voice actor. And even here he doesn't seem like a talkative type, just the cool space pirate looking into the distance. I'm somewhat interested after the first episode, mostly because there's the Leijiverse style, even when the settings are a bit different. |
| Animation is pretty good for Toei standards. Soundtrack is also very nice, but I don't feel much else about the series yet. Guess I kinda walked into that sort of experience (Space is something I just don't like, don't ask me why), but maybe I may like this anime soon enough. |
Opinions are opinions, and differing opinions can co-exist. 🙂 But I don't do debate, life's too short to spend time debating people.  |
| I'm on a 70s anime binge, and was looking for something to watch after Space Battleship Yamato 1 & 2. Looks like this'll scratch that itch. Love that Leiji Matsumoto art style. Love the ship designs. And the premise is really cool. In spite of it being relatively light on action, I thought this was a great first episode. Can't wait to see more. |
| Beep boop |
| Code Geass the beta version. Herlock is the original emo from the times before it was cool. He reminds me of both Lelouch and Capitan Blood from Odyssey of Capitan Blood. I am not sure if I can fully support his cause though, the way it was described is dubious and ambiguous. That leaves a lot of room for interpretation. His dislike for brandy and diamonds is also strange, especially since he has booze in his cabin. Miime kind of like CC I think. It is just first episode but I can already see how much this influenced so many other anime out there. |

| After all these years, I've finally decided to watch this series. Up to now, the "Arcadia of My Youth" movie had been my only exposure to Harlock when I saw it back in the 90s, along with the GE999 movie that I saw a decade ago. So far, this looks promising. |
