English Trailer
The first Act introduces us to most of the main characters, with flash backs providing explanations of how they act and foreshadowing future events, and provides the true turning point to the protagonist.
The protagonist is Yama (or Logan in the english dub), and has been tasked by his Older Brother Isola (Erza in the english dub), a Praefectis in the military, to infiltrate the Arcadia and assasinate the Space Pirate Captain known as Harlock, who has been at large for over 100 years.
The story starts with a typical day for those on a colony planet, barren, no signs of true life, people just dozing out at the bar, ordinary life. Until Yama hears the acadia over head, and his mission is alive. It is unclear as to the complete time brackets between been given the mission and Yama's infiltration to the ship, or Yama's falling out with his brother over being responsible for his mother's death (revealed in a flash back). But for the longest time, an ordinary life for Yama was one of privledge and of military.
The protagonist originally wants to fufill his brother's wish, and attone for his sins, by getting a job done that no one else wants to even try, which is assinating Harlock.
The initial Antagonist is Space Pirate Captain harlock, but that quickly turns to Isola as the antagonist, with Harlock turning into a sort of Anti-Hero, and his brother Isola having placed Yama on the ship purely to see him killed, also leading the attack against the Arcadia, losing thousands in the process and ignoring any logic from Yama, infused with rage (though we find this out in later acts)
The protagonist initially wants to attone for his sins, perhaps knowing it's a death wish, but ends up wanting what Captain Harlock wants, freedom for all and the earth renewed.
The inciting incident happens right at the start of the film, when we find out Yama is infact an operative on the ship, but the turning point happens when he finds out that Captain Harlock knows, but accepts him as part of his crew, and tells him to find his own truth, which in Yama does, following Harlock in his plan to 'reset' the universe.
