In the year 2209 A.D., an enormous dreadnought disguised as a white comet speeds across the galaxy on a diabolical mission of enslaving entire solar systems to...pachinko. The earth faces almost certain destruction from compulsive gambling and chronic chain smoking unless the crew of the space battleship Yamato can find a way to stop this threat one tiny little silver ball at a time...
Hot on the heels of last year's epochal pachinko CR Yamato, pachinko CR Yamato 2 is being rolled out in a flurry of bad wigs, new merchandise, stunning 3D CGI, and commercials revolving around choice quotes from the late Juzo Okita. Pretty much all you need to know is presented in the mindblowing video infomercial below.
I know we're all supposed to piss and moan and say how boring pachinko is, but man, I wouldn't mind spening the rest of my life throwing 100 yen coins at this machine...at least until the inevitable Be Forever Pachinko Yamato arrives.
Oh, and the original Yamato 2 anime first aired 30 years ago, meaning that, yup, even the dumbest Cosmo Tiger could tell you, "2009 is 1979." More pics from the cosplay ridden press conference for CRY2 here.
Nice to meet you hello.
I got to know you from the connection with the fan of Tomo.
It was impressed on the depth in "Otaku In USA".
It is possible to cry because I am glad for Yamato love to be felt because it tries to read "Postscript" part again in today.
Do you go for the Yamato party on May 3?The find might be found if going.
It sincerely prays for the activity in the future.

Hi Patrick!
'Yamato party' is an exchange association event of the Yamato fan of the main management, and a festival of the Yamato fan.

I see. Because Yamato 2 is special, the impression is told though pachinko is not usually so done.
Does not Patrick live in Japan now?
