Reader’s Question:
Will the current remake of Space Battleship Yamato ever have a conclusion? I’m watching Ark on BS right now, and I noticed that the music playing around the reveal of the witch’s true identity is from Queen Aquarius. Does this mean that there won’t be any mention of Dingir,
and that 2199 will just end there, leading into Anno’s Yamato?
Will the Remake of Space Battleship Yamato Ever Conclude?
As a long-time fan of the Space Battleship Yamato series, I completely understand the excitement and frustration surrounding the ongoing remakes. The question posed by the reader about whether the current remake will ever reach a conclusion is certainly valid, especially with the latest developments in the series. I recently found myself binge-watching Ark on BS, and there was a moment that struck me—when the music from Queen Aquarius played during the reveal of the witch’s true identity. It gave me chills, but it also left me wondering about the narrative direction. Will we see any mention of Dingir, or are we destined to see 2199 end there, leading straight into Anno’s interpretation of Yamato? In my experience, these kinds of cliffhangers can evoke a mix of anticipation and anxiety. It reminds me of that one time I went to a movie with friends, and we all left the theater debating wildly about the ending. Everyone had their theories, and it was both exciting and a bit overwhelming. I had arrived at the cinema way too early (classic me), so I ended up indulging in way too many snacks while trying to calm my nerves about what was to come. Now, to address the user’s comment regarding Harutoshi Fukui’s statement about 3199 being a stepping stone towards the conclusion. I find this perspective quite hopeful. If we view 2205 as a hop and 3199 as a further step, it seems we are indeed on a path to what could potentially be the grand finale. It’s almost like a journey through space—exploring new worlds while ensuring that the destination is clear. What resonates with me is the notion that creators often leave breadcrumbs for the audience. Each piece of music, each character revelation, serves a purpose in shaping the narrative. So, for those of us who are invested, it’s about piecing together these clues and enjoying the ride. As I reflect on my own experiences with series that seem to go on indefinitely, I find a blend of excitement and impatience. It’s like waiting for the next season of a show that leaves you hanging. But perhaps that’s part of the charm—being part of a community that shares in the speculation and the emotional rollercoaster. I’d love to hear your thoughts on this! Have you experienced a series that left you guessing, or do you have any tips for dealing with cliffhangers? Let’s chat in the comments!
