What's left behind the scenes

The basis for the animated film is the cult comic books “Space Pirate Captain Harlock,” which were published in the magazine “Play Comic” (1977-1979).
The Japanese version has a runtime of 115 minutes.
The “Space Pirate Harlock” comic franchise has fan clubs worldwide and is among the five most popular comics of all time, alongside “Star Wars” and “Star Trek.”
"Space Pirate Harlock 3D" is the most technically complex and refined animated version of the legendary hero’s adventures. For example, motion capture technology was used in creating the characters.
The film received an award from the US-based International 3D & Advanced Imaging Society as the best animated project internationally.
The international distribution version was prepared with the participation of the United States and France.
In previous stories about Harlock, Totiro Oyama was in love with the queen of space pirates – Emeraldas. In this story, Oyama is in love with the alien Mime.
After watching the film, director James Cameron commented: “Large-scale, grandiose, and visually unprecedented. ‘Harlock’ is ahead of its time, astonishing the imagination.”
