Episode 20: Wow. Rainbow galaxy battle was intense! And yeah - we still
got a little bit of the "luck" factor in the drill missile going
backwards into the fleet (BTW - I like the idea the drill missile was a
"kludge" of an asteroid drill!) but I like the fact that a lot more of
it was due to skill and the Yamato crew actually FIGHTING that last
fight! Detonating the drill missile payload with a shock cannon blast -
IN YOUR FACE - that was inspired.
But there was also the fact that you really FELT FOR the characters
getting killed - ON BOTH SIDES. Damn...
Loved that it was Niimi with Analyzer on the missile, while Sanada did
the important task of getting the wave motion shielding back online and
just in time to save (Most of!) the third bridge!
The ship is STILL battered to hell and gone. But at least not improbably
so like in the original.
And... whoo boy... BIG CASE of mistaken identity! Yuki! Oh crap!
