It's got nothing to do with nothing going on here at Capcom, but if you grew up with Tatsunoko's Battle of the Planets, you probably also fondly remember Star Blazers, aka Space Cruiser Yamato. There have been a number of Yamato movies and TV shows in Japan over the years, but this new one looks pretty cool, incorporating CG space battles alongside traditional anime artistry. When I was younger, I had an incredible Yamato toy that was over a foot long and had a firing Wave Motion Gun, but my ditzy girlfriend at the time bumped it off its stand and smashed it. *sigh* I actually remember that toy more fondly than the girl.

Thanks to awesome sci-fi blog io9 for pointing this out!
