is a 1983 Japanese anime epic science fiction film and the fifth film (fourth theatrical) of the 'Space Battleship Yamato' saga (known as 'Star Blazers' in the United States). Its extended 70mm cut was the longest animated film in the world for 36 years, until it was surpassed by 'In This Corner (and Other Corners) of the World', the 2019 extended cut of 2016's 'In This Corner of the World', by five minutes.

Synopsis



The water planet Aquarius is heading towards Earth after flooding the home planet of the warrior race of the Dinguil. The Dinguil use warp technology to make the planet move towards Earth faster than usual. The warrior race plans to flood Earth and make it their new home. When Earth learns of this, they make plans to evacuate humanity. Unfortunately, the Dinguil destroy the evacuation fleets. The space battleship 'Yamato', under the newly revived Jyuzo Okita (who seemingly died in the first season of the original series) now has to fight the Dinguil and stop Aquarius from flooding the Earth.
