set around the Yamato's final suicide trip this film was filmed in Japan on a 1/1 scale set of the worlds biggest battleship, quite something to see.

i hadn't till i saw the film clips, but thats because i've never looked into the Japanese navy before, not really my interest but you know how it is after you watch something, got to go and do abit of research afterwards to se how good it was
