News: International Release of Yamtao 2199 Coming Soon

Today, ANN announces that the currently running anime film series Space Battleship Yamato 2199 will officially be distributed outside Japan in the future, though no word yet exists on which countries it will be shown in and when or what languages it will be dubbed in or whether it will be the 7-film theatrical series cut or 26-episode DVD cut to be internationally distributed. Morever, ANN indicates that according to a filmed-in-Japan silmulcast for the anime, this series will use "Star Blazers 2199" as its title for outside Japan release (my predications guessed right about how it will be titled outside Japanf, and in case some of you are new to the Space Battleship Yamato experience, the term "Star Blazers" identifies the Space Battleship Yamato franchise for English-dubbed releases in North America, though only the first three SBY T.V. series have U.S.-produced English dubs).
