Can we maybe get more of the classic Matsumoto-style space opera genre of the early 80s please?
Yes, - they've never really stopped doing the giant robot genre and many of those shows have elements of that (Macross Frontier). But when's the last time we had a good old classic space oriented show? Static NON-transformable mecha, etc? Like the Yamato series or even Captain Harlock SSX or Legend of the Galactic Heroes?
The recent release of the new Yamato movie has me wondering when was the last time I saw a whole series like that? And I can't think of anything recent. The closest I can think of is Outlaw Star (I know the grappler ships have arms, but otherwise it fits) and even further back - Lost Universe.
