Forum Arcadia: Your Gateway Leiji Matsumoto Anime

I don't know how many users at theOtaku.com are fans of Leiji Matsumoto's anime and/or manga works (such as Space Pirate Captain Harlock, Galaxy Express 999, Interstellar 5555 - 5tory of the 5ecret 5tar 5ystem, and the original Space Battleship Yamato), but for today's topic, I want to take time to get to know you, the readers. Therefore, the topic for this forum post is where you discuss what anime by Leiji Matsumoto or based on his creations you saw that made you a fan of the great master's art and storytelling, even to the pont of watching anime not by Harlock's creator himself but are based on his work (like Space Pirate Captain Herlock: Endless Odyssey and Space Battleship Yamato 2199). Basically, you are to say what is it about the anime that made you hungry for more of the great master's art.

For those of you new to getting know Leiji Matsumoto, anime works he worked on so far (to the best of my knowledge at least) are all the Space Battleship Yamato anime (not counting Space Battleship Yamato: The Movie, Yamato 2520, Space Battleship Yamato: Resurrection, and Space Battleship Yamato 2199), Danguard Ace, SF Saiyuki Starzinger (aka "Spaceketeers"), Maeterlinck's Blue Bird: Tyltyl and Mytyl's Adventurous Journey (Matsumoto only did character designs for this one), 1979's Galaxy Express 999 (better known as "Galaxy Express 999: The Movie" and "Galaxy Express 999" The Signature Edition"), Adieu Galaxy Express 999, Arcadia of my Youth, Arcadia of My Youth: Endless Orbit SSX, Way to the Virgin's Space, Saint Elmo – Apostle of Light, The Cockpit, Harlock Saga - Ring of the Nibelung, Interstellar 5555 - 5tory of the 5ecret 5ystem, Cosmowarrior Zero, Maetel Legend, Space Symphony Maetel: Galaxy Express 999 Side Story, Submarine Super 99, all Galaxy Railways anime, and Ozuma
