Known as a top fan of designs for space battleships or starships, and a fan of the SpaceBattleship Yamato franchise. Also as a hobbyist model craft builder, decided to build a model craft of the legendary ship, Space Battleship Yamato (ver. 2199). The anime represented a sci-fi style of Retro-Futurism and classic 70s Space Opera. It (1974' original saga) also inspired many classic or modern sci-fi films. It could be a hidden gem in the history of Japanese anime. Highly recommend you guys to watch the 2199 remake anime franchise, if you are also a Space Opera genre of Sci-Fi fan, or just interested in Japanese anime culture or fandoms!
