The second teaser trailer for the fourth chapter, "Sasha, the Light Blue Maiden," of " Be Forever Yamato: Rebel 3199, " the latest installment in the remake series of the popular anime " Space Battleship Yamato ," has been released. "Yamato 3199" is a reinterpretation and reconstruction of the original works " Be Forever Yamato" and "Space Battleship Yamato III," and the second teaser trailer focuses on Ram, the captain of the Rajendra, who also appears in "Space Battleship Yamato Space Battleship Yamato III," but who is Ram anyway?
◇ Pride as a Fighter
In "Space Battleship Yama III," Ram appears as the captain of the Rajendra, a soldier of the planet Baas under the protection of the Bolar Federation. The Garman Empire attempts to invade the planet Baas, but Ram resists. After a hard fight, only the flagship Rajendra remains and they warp to the vicinity of Neptune in the solar system. There, they encounter Yamato, which is searching for a second Earth. Ram asks Yamato for help, and Yamato remains neutral and only provides support by repairing the Rajendra and resupplying it with water, food, and medicine.
At that moment, the Dagon fleet of the Garman Empire appears and demands the handover of the Rajendra. Ram takes a firm stance, saying, "We will neither run away nor hide," and with most of his armaments destroyed, the Dagon fleet attacks Yamato, drawing it into the battle.
He could have used Yamato as a decoy and escaped by warp, but he was grateful to Yamato for its support and continued to fight. Seeing Ram's "pride as a fighter" and his righteousness to the very end, Susumu Kodai said, "We even respect him." Ram's proud appearance left a big impact on fans.
◇The Grand Duke and fierce general of the planet Bath!?
The first teaser trailer for the fourth chapter of Yamato 3199, "Light Blue Maiden," released in April, featured a character believed to be Ram, which was a hot topic. The second teaser trailer, which was recently released, announced that Ram would be making an appearance, stating, "Ram, the Grand Duke and fierce general of the planet Birth, is coming."
Harutoshi Fukui, the general director of "Yamato 3199," once said about the fourth chapter, "Next, we'll take a break from 'Forever' and start 'III'... That's how it feels. When we added the music, it became like 'III'!"
What kind of performance will the tragic Captain Ram show in the fourth chapter? The second teaser trailer includes lines such as "Don't miss, Rajendra" and "President Desler, prepare yourself," but there are still many things we don't know. We can't wait for the release on October 10th.
