I hope the lawsuits go well. I, for one, look forward for more anime from Mr.
Matsumoto in the future as well as more of the "Yamato" (Star Blazers) franchise.

It appears that quite a bit of the Yamato franchise is available to buy.

All the TV series eps from that company are the cut-&-dubbed version.
And the two Yamato movie DVDs I bought from that company wouldn't play all the way through, and were obviously mastered from videotape (burned-in subs and all).

Are Nishizaki and Matsumoto still fueding? Nishizaki needs to realize he's a nobody without Matsumoto. What has he done since Space Battleship Yamato that anyone's cared about? Nothing. Meanwhile, Matsumoto went on to create a beloved anime icon, Captain Harlock, and did several anime of him and others (with varying success, I realize, but it's something at least). All Nishizaki's done is be arrested for weapons posession. I think we know who the real talent of the two is.

I have the Yamato movies on DVD (available from Voyager Entertainment). In fact, recently I realized I have to replace a couple of damaged discs from the boxset. There's a lot of interesting info and interviews included on them, though, and a great booklet with the boxset.

I don't really care or want new Yamato (especially if Matsumoto isn't involved). I'd prefer to have the original series, uncut, bilingual, new dub, etc.

And before Viz took over for the movies, Galaxy Express was released and dubbed by Roger Corman Anime cry

And it never got a DVD release neither (something about license expiring)
