This papercraft is the Arcadia (skullnose version"s official name is "Arcadia of My Youth"), Herlock"s space battleship appearing in Leiji Matsumoto"s Space Pirate Captain Harlock manga and anime series, the paper model is created by [unknown], and shared by yenc.
It is also the name of Harlock"s distant ancestor Phantom F. Harlock"s biplane and his son Luftwaffe Captain Phantom F. Harlock II"s Messerschmitt Bf 109.
The ship belongs to Harlock, a man well-known as a space pirate. As its name implies, the ship symbolizes Harlock"s life as a lawless man who rebels against any form of oppression and who flies under his own flag in search of freedom.
The ship was designed by Harlock"s sworn friend Tochiro Oyama. Since Tochiro"s death, his soul resides within the central computer. The ship is alive and it retains Tochiro"s memories and consciousness, so that it could be considered as a type of cyborg. Besides Harlock, the ship has a complement of 40 pirates, one bird, one cat, as well one robot.
The Arcadia possesses strong heavy armor able to withstand all sorts of missiles and beams. This, in combination with its overwhelming firepower, allows it to challenge large enemy fleets single-handedly without being at a disadvantage in overall combat power.
According to Harlock Saga the young Tochiro was resolved to build up to seven models of the Arcadia. In Part 1 (Rhinegold) the older Tochiro states that there are nine models of the Arcadia.
