Synopsis
Tetsuro believed he was freeing the Earth from the clutches of the Metanoid Empire's tyranny, but one year after his return, Tetsuro is a prisoner of a new tyrant. However, before worse than imprisonment can happen to the boy, Maetel and the 999 swoop in to the boy's rescue. With his freedom, gun, and trusty hat returned to him, Tetsuro reaffirms his desire to save his home. But a new darkness is rising to swallow the light, and one of its agents has him in her sights. Before the train can depart for a new destination, Tetsuro will have to face the deadly knight Helmazaria.
Discotek had considered contracting Ocean Productions to dub the film as it had the previous films, but abandoned that idea before asking for a price estimate.[1] As a compromise, they got Lisa Ortiz and David Matranga to reprise Maetel and Harlock respectively (Ortiz previously voiced Maetel in Harlock Saga and Maetel Legend, and Matranga previously voiced Harlock in Space Pirate Captain Harlock).
