Space Pirate Captain Harlock

In France and Quebec, Captain Harlock is known as "Albator, le corsaire de l'espace", to avoid confusion with the completely different character Captain Haddock, and is very popular there.

In 1978, a faithful English-subtitled version of the original series appeared uncut on the Honolulu-based Japanese-language UHF station, KIKU-TV.

In Italy, Capitan Harlock was dubbed and aired on RAI in 1979 and it quickly became one of the most successfull animated series of that time.
