Waga Seishun no Arcadia is the Japanese title for an anime feature film that explores the backstory of Captain Harlock, a character conceived by Leiji Matsumoto. Directed by Tomoharu Katsumata with animation direction by Kazuo Komatsubara, the film was historically positioned as a foundational work within the interconnected "Leijiverse," a shared fictional universe that also encompasses Galaxy Express 999 and Space Pirate Captain Harlock. The film's narrative significance lies in its portrayal of the titular character's origins and formative experiences.
