Space Pirate Captain Harlock
Captain Herlock
Humanity conquered the galaxy, but success was short-lived. With universal resources drying up, roughly 500 billion people start heading back to Earth, triggering brutal wars between human factions over control of the planet. Eventually, an authoritarian regime called the Gaia Sanction takes power and simply bans anyone from resettling there. Captain Herlock was one of the Gaia Sanction's elite military commanders, leading an unstoppable fleet. But when the regime allows a group of diplomatic elites to immigrate to Earth, he snaps. Herlock turns against his own fleet and the diplomats, then unleashes dark matter on the planet to render it uninhabitable. The dark matter engulfs him too, and instead of dying, he becomes immortal. A century later, Herlock's still out there commanding his ship, the Arcadia, as a living legend. The Gaia Sanction continues consolidating power over Earth while keeping its real condition secret. But Herlock's finally ready for one last confrontation that'll decide everything.
