Early in the morning of August 5, or more precisely, from the night of August 4, Yamato fever swept the nation. It was the first day of the release of Farewell to Yamato. Eight theaters in Tokyo opened at 4:30 in the morning. On that day alone, 33,000 people lined up in front of theaters to see the film. In its first two weeks, the film drew 1.44 million viewers nationwide and grossed 1.5 billion yen at the box office. It was a bigger hit than the previous film, Space Battleship Yamato. The programs and posters sold very well at the theater.
