## Description

.com          Based on manga drawn by Leiji Matsumoto in 1978, this OAV series continues the Space Pirate Captain Harlock cycle. Emeraldas, who once loved Harlock, plies the sea of space in the Queen Emeraldas, a starship that resembles a blimp attached to a 17th-century sailing vessel. Sepulchrally thin, with a mane of blond hair and a prominent facial scar, Emeraldas fights injustice--and anyone who dares to fly Harlock's skull-and-cross-bones emblem. In "Departure," the first installment, spunky street urchin Tochiro stows away to the planet Daibaran, hoping to start a new life--and build a starship of his own. Daibaran is a mined-out wasteland with an Old West-style town, complete with a saloon. Tochiro comes into conflict with Eldomain, the captain of the Afressian space pirates, who makes the mistake of defying Emeraldas--with predictable results. The conflict escalates in "Eternal Emblem," as Eldomain kidnaps Tochiro and the other inhabitants of Daibaran in an attempt to trap Emeraldas. She defeats Eldomain, the entire Afressian fleet, and their queen before sailing off. Queen Emeraldas will delight Captain Harlock fans; critical viewers will find the poor integration of the three-dimensional, computer-animated spaceship with the two-dimensional cel animation visually jarring. --Charles Solomon

    Well, 2 out of 4 ain't bad...
  

*by K***D on Reviewed in the United States on November 28, 2013*

This volume, released by ADV Films, contains the first two episodes, produced by Studio OLM (Oriental Light & Magic), of the 4-episode 1998 OVA solo adventure of Captain Harlock's frequent co-star and virtual distaff doppelganger, Emeraldas, titled after her famous, dirigible-like spaceship, the Queen Emeraldas.Unfortunately, episodes 3 & 4, produced a year later by a different studio, Multi Access Company, have yet to be licensed here, and at this remove it seems unlikely they ever will be.Thankfully this pair, Departure & Eternal Emblem, comprise a self-contained arc that doesn't leave one hanging.I however am forced to leave the reader hanging, in terms of the story, as even a brief synopsis would involve more cross-references to other 'Leijiverse' anime than I'm prepared to deal with here.And anyway, you wouldn't want me to spoil it for you, yeah?Suffice it say, if you're a Leiji Matsumoto fan, you won't wanna miss this.

    Fun series with a lot of flaws
  

*by Z***N on Reviewed in the United States on March 12, 2002*

"Queen Emereldas" is fun.  The OVA is peppered with flaws, preventing it from being more than fun, but it is still a good DVD and a nice addition to the Matsumoto stable.As with most Matsumoto, "Queen Emereldas" is heavy on melodrama.  "I am.....Emereldas (accompanied by a fierce wind that blows cape in a dramatic fashion.)"  His work is pretty firmly Science Fantasy rather than Science Fiction.  Spaceships are re-conditioned pirate ships with flags blowing in a non-existant wind as they sail the silent seas.  Weapons are based on archaic swords and heavy dragoons.  "Queen Emereldas" has all of these Matsumoto touches in spades.  Honor and strength matter more than plot, and every scrappy kid has the right to be a man.  The orchestral music is sweeping drama.On the flaw side, as with "Harlock Saga," "Queen Emereldas" has a hard time with computer animation and cel animation.  The two styles mix together jaringly.  For some bizarre reason, the DVD switches to French about 2/3 of the way through.  With a remote control it is easy enough to switch it back, but it is strange that this error got through on a professional DVD.Storywise, "Queen Emereldas" assumes you are up on your Matsumoto.  There are no introductions made for characters like Tochiro or the mechanoids.  Backstory is never filled in.  Someone not familiar with Matsumoto's previous work would be very confused and disappointed by "Queen Emereldas."Still, with so little of Matsumoto's work available on DVD, each crumb dropped from the table feels like a feast.  It's a fun series and I enjoy it in spite of it's flaws.

I ordered the VHS and recieved a Sealed copy in perfect condition I couldn't be more thrilled as a collector. Although I am going to unseal it to watch I'm still thankful.
