Big Wars

Big Wars (ビッグ・ウォーズ 神撃つ朱き荒野に) is a 1993 Japanese anime film. Set in the dawning of the 21st century, the earth has undergone changes and technology improved in leaps and bounds, with mankind now colonizing Mars. However, unknown to mankind, there is an ancient race of aliens known as 'The Gods' which have been patiently waiting and watching mankind's progress. They take action and try to halt man's progress into space with extreme force. Although mankind has some very advanced weaponry at their disposal such as highly advanced aircraft, orbital fighters and gigantic desert battleships full of the most amazing array of weapons, will it be enough to stop them? The aliens have impressive weapons of their own, including an unstoppable stealth carrier. Mankind's hope rests on the shoulders of Captain Akuh and the crew of the Battleship Aoba. They are to carry out a top-secret mission against the aliens which, if successful, could mean the end to the war.
