I love the reboot of the Yamato series, but this iteration just fell a bit flat for me. It felt too rushed, some old loved characters didn't have more than a line or two for the entire series and the new ones not enough time to get a proper characterization. The new Kodai clone brat was insufferable and his 'sad' back story not enough to endear him to us. There was also too much pathos, so much crying and yelling. 2099 was much better directed and screenplayed.

There is a cult of ignorance (...) nurtured by the false notion that democracy means that “my ignorance is just as good as your knowledge.” Isaac Asimov
