Not much to post here today, but today, Leiji Matsumoto, creator of "Captain Harlock" and director of the original "Space Battleship Yamato" series, turns 74 years of age and still remains active in the anime and the manga biz, especially with a few big projects he has on his watch for this decade and with a world summit event to celebrate his career in July 15 and 16 in Tomioka, Fukushima Prefecture, Japan.

Many birthday wishes to the guy who co-redefined anime as a medium in the 1970s with "Space Battleship Yamato" with many years of excitement to come.
