Star Blazers: Space Battleship Yamato 2205

In a desperate bid for survival, the Gamilans confront their planet's rapid decline, prompting their leader, Aberdt Desler, to masquerade as a loyal subject of the Galman, a neighboring world inhabited by a race strikingly similar to his own. His true ambition lies in usurping control to facilitate a migration that could save his people. However, as the Gamilans embark on their journey, they are unexpectedly assaulted by a formidable force that devastates their twin planet, Iscandar, home to Queen Starsha.

On Earth, the atmosphere is one of triumph as the legendary Space Battleship Yamato and its fearless crew bask in the glory of their past victories. A fresh cohort of recruits joins the ranks, under the guidance of Yuki Mori and Shirou Sanada, but tensions simmer regarding the leadership of Captain Susumu Kodai. Amidst a planned six-month training mission and crucial diplomatic engagements with the Gamilans, the crew is shaken by news of the calamity at Iscandar. Defying orders, Kodai makes the bold decision to redirect the fleet to extend their assistance to the impacted refugees, setting the stage for a gripping confrontation that challenges their resolve and camaraderie.
