Editorial Review:

Amazon.com:
The 1981 feature Arcadia of My Youth (Waga Seishun no Arcadia) reveals the past of Leiji Matsumoto's celebrated trio Captain Phantom F. Harlock, technological wizard Tochiro (with whom Matsumoto is said to identify), and free trader Emeraldas. Harlock is not a pirate, but a rebel defying the Illumidus Occupation Force and the quislings who aid their occupation of Earth: his skull and crossbones banner symbolizes his dedication to fight to the death for his beliefs. Harlock's efforts to aid the people of the planet Tokarga, whom the Illumidus have used and plan to discard, becomes a baroque sword-and-spaceship epic in which heroic men weep, women display steely courage, and everyone follows a bushido-based code of honor. During the adventure, viewers discover how Harlock lost his right eye and Emeraldas acquired the trademark scar across her face. A must-have for Matsumoto's many fans. (Rated 13 and older: violence, alcohol use, minor profanity) --Charles Solomon

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Deserving of a better release!!
I remember the first time I saw Arcadia of My Youth. It was a VHS copy by a small company called Best Video. The audio was a bit scratchey, the English voice acting was labored to say the least, and the picture was dull as can be expected from a VHS tape. Now after all these years a company called Animeigo has released Arcadia of My Youth on DVD. But was to be elation soon turned to somewhat of a let down. Which left me saying that this film should have seen a better quality DVD.

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - "At the end of the journey, all men think that their youth was Archadia
Classic story of a space pirate Harlock and his group of freedom fighters who try to liberate earth from alien control.

Though 'Waga seishun no Arcadia' is old movie and has excessive melodrama, it's basic story and message are still stronger than in many modern day animes.

See it, so you can understand it.

My Rating: 9/10

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - All Brave Men Dream of their Youth in Arcadia
Captain Harlock is perhaps the greatest creation of anime legend Leiji Matsumoto's , the creative mind behind classics like Space Battleship Yamato (known as Star Blazers in the U.S.). Harlock is really to me the quintessential anime hero (anti-hero?). He's stoic. He's cold and aloof. When challenged to a duel, he doesn't even blink. But deep in his soul the fires of his lost love and eternal courage burn deep. This character has been duplicated numerous times (check out captain Nemo in Nadia: Secret of ... Read More



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Matsumoto at his Best
My introduction to Captain Harlock (Arcadia of My Youth) came by a rather unusual route. As a young fan (12yrs) of the Americanized syndicated series "Starblazers" (Spacecruiser Yamato), I stumbled acrossed another Animee series running on the CBC French channel at the same time that was very similar in style which was named, in French, "Albator". Even though my French was very limited, I became a big fan (the animation was beautiful, and, I have to admit, the air of mystery was enhanced by my very basic ... Read More



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - "It takes a man to understand these feelings..."
Captain Harlock epitomizes what the Japanese call the "Hard School" of heroes. He is stoic and strong, unmoved by weak emotions and undistracted by women. Yokio Mishima ("The Sailor Who Fell from Grace With the Sea") would give a silent, grim salute to this space sailor, who coasts the pure and cold ocean of stars, accompanied by his boon companions who he shelters from the storms. High melodrama, complete with capes and scars.

There is no film that captures this essence more than "Arcadia of my ... Read More
