After waiting a very long time, Viz has finally released an English adaptation of this movie,,, and they did a great job. The voice actors are very good. You'll probably recognize some of them from Dragonball.

Two years after the destruction of the mechanization home world, Tetsuro Hoshino receives an invitation on Earth to board the Galaxy Express 999. After meeting with Maetel, he learns many startling things about who exactly Maetel is. He also meets a new character, Faust. Many new characters are introduced in this film, and the ending is somewhat reminiscent of Star Wars. I can't say too much without spoiling this for you, so I will stop here.

Adieu Galaxy Express 999 is a classic space opera. Fans of Leiji Matsumoto will no doubt find this to be quite entertaining.

It's a shame that Viz takes so long to release these films. I spent about two years looking for a copy of this. I finally found a used VHS on ebay for about $45. Until they release it on DVD, good luck finding a copy for yourself.
