The 28th episode of Star Blazers, an English rewrite and dub of the 1974 anime series Space Battleship Yamato, airs in syndication across the U.S. 
The Argo returns to Earth, and survives a close brush with the new flagship of the Earth Defense Force fleet, the Andromeda. Wildstar reunites with Nova on Earth, and the rest of the original Argo crew gather at a memorial to Captain Avatar to commemorate his life and his accomplishments. But the peace is short-lived – the Comet Empire creates a power surge that disables electrical systems on spaceships and on Earth, and sends a wing of reconnaisance ships as well. At precisely the same moment, a powerful signal is beamed straight to Earth from a distant world…but is jammed by the Comet Empire’s interference.
