Okita, Juuzou

沖田 十三

The stern captain of the Yamato is utterly devoted to his mission to save Earth from the Gamilus threat, even at the cost of his own life. He is, in fact, dying and becomes increasingly ill during the first season, yet remains convinced that he will live to see his homeworld again. He regards Susumu Kodai almost as a replacement for the son he lost in battle, and deeply regrets his son's death in the battle at Pluto, along with the apparent death of Kodai's older brother, Mamoru. Even when his illness leaves him bedridden, he remains a source of advice to the crew, and to Kodai in particular. In the movie Final Yamato, it is revealed that he was kept in cryogenic suspension for some time until Earth physicians could revive him and cure his sickness. He then went on to lead the EDF again in its fight against the Dingirians.
He is based on Leiji Matsumoto's father, who was a Major in the Imperial Japanese Army Air Force and flew a Nakajima Ki-84 in the Battle of Leyte Gulf.
