Background/History: Okita was the admiral in command when the first contact with Gamilus went disastrously wrong. Having lost most of his fleet, incluidng the ship commanded by his best friend Mamoru Kodai, Okita limped back to Earth. Soon Earth came under bombardment from deadly meteor bombs, and it appeared the Human Race was doomed to extinction.

The discovery of the Cosmo Cleaner gave Okita his chance at redemption. An experienced commander would be needed to manage the near-impossible voyage to Iscandar, aboard the most advanced space vessel Man had ever constructed—the Space Battleship Yamato. Even though his own health was beginning to fail, Okita assumed command of the Yamato and led her on a voyage that would decide the fate of Humanity—without regard to his own chanced of surviving the journey.

Personality/Motivation: Okita is a man who places his duty above every other consideration, especially his personal feelings. A careful and cunning commander, Okita will nonetheless take enormous risks to give his mission a chance for success. He doesn't demand personal loyalty from his crew so much as loyalty to the mission and views himself as eminently expendable provided the mission succeeds. He is especially pained by Susumu Kodai's distrust, as Mamoru was his best friend and, in Okita's opinion, a far better man than himself.

Quote: "Kodai, do you want the Earth to end up like the Yukikaze?"

Powers/Tactics: No longer a man who holds a gun and fights, Okita is msot at home on the bridge of a ship, where he can command all its resources to best advantage. He is a careful but determined commander who places the mission above everything else.
