by On October 6, Khara, whose CEO is Hideaki Anno, announced it had obtained the rights to produce a new anime film based on ” Space Battleship Yamato .” The company is planning a new theatrical film to start production in 2025.
The company was granted the rights to produce a new anime film based on “Space Battleship Yamato” by Voyager Holdings, whose CEO is Shoji Nishizaki, and received permission from Tohokushinsha to use the copyright.
Anno commented, “If I hadn’t encountered ‘Space Battleship Yamato’ 50 years ago, I wouldn’t be who I am today. As I am involved with ‘Yamato,’ I would like to spend the rest of my life creating as many interesting works as possible that mix new and old, with gratitude, respect, and gratitude for all the staff and cast of ‘Yamato.’ I want to leave ‘Space Battleship Yamato’ for future generations.”
The film is said to be “a work that follows a different course” from the remake series that began with “Space Battleship Yamato 2199,” released in 2012 and continues with ” Yamato Forever REBEL 3199,” the second chapter of which will be released in theaters on November 22. The director commented, “We are secretly praying for the safe voyage of the remake series currently in production.”
