Earth and the Great Garmillas Empire form a joint task force to fight back the Gatlantean invasion, but they succeed only by paying a very high price. Outside the Milky Way Galaxy, the Gatlantis Empire poses a new threat, one that is growing ever stronger and is advancing toward the solar system. The crew of Yamato have maintained the bonds of camaraderie, friendship, and love that were built during their long voyage to Iscandar, despite everything that has happened since.
A promise of peace was made to Queen Starsha for that gift, but the Earth Federation has pursued militarization and the construction of more advanced and powerful battleships, starting with Andromeda.
In the year 2202, Earth is a living blue planet and humanity continues to rebuild, thanks to the crew of the space battleship Yamato and the gift of the Cosmo Reverse System made by Queen Starsha Iscandar.
