Inheriting the cultural heritage of Space Battleship Yamato
The nonprofit organization Anime Tokusatsu Archive Centre (ATAC) is responsible for the preservation, organization, and restoration of materials from the Space Battleship Yamato series, inherited by Khara Co., Ltd.
With the cooperation of fans and related parties who have been carefully preserving the materials for many years, the Space Battleship Yamato Complete Record Exhibition was able to collect and exhibit valuable materials that have never been seen by the general public before. We are very happy that visitors were able to see these materials.
We will not stop here, but will continue to preserve materials into the future and strive to make more of them available to the public. We would like to express our deepest gratitude to those who cooperated in collecting and providing the materials for exhibition. (In no particular order, titles omitted)

Materials from Farewell to Yamato and Yamato III.
The table to left of the display panel supplied pens and post-its for a bonus activity.
Just around the corner to the left were two large mostly-blank walls for visitors to leave their own personal messages.
By the end of each day, these walls were completely covered.
Just outside the exhibition space was a Kinokuniya bookstore with several Yamato items for sale. This included the brand new Yamato Iconics art book by Michio Murakawa (bottom right corner), which wouldn’t be officially published until the second week of the event.
Preorders were open for Junichiro Tamamori’s mecha art collection, coming July 24.
