Re: Leiji Matsumoto has passed away

One of my earliest anime-related memories was the rotating asteroid defense from Space Cruiser Yamato, as the international release of the SBY movie was known. The theater was packed.

That & Domel docking his shuttle to the Yamato's secondary bridge.

R.I.P., you're now with the sea of stars.

R.I.P. to an incredible creator. I'll always be grateful for Harlock, Galaxy Express and its associated works.

RIP
I remember his animation in that Daft Punk music video with the blue people.

sadly a lot of those legendary anime creators from back in the day are reaching that age.
