Another Inka collab—here are the English subs for Saint Elmo, a 1986 TV film originally created to celebrate the 35th anniversary of the Kansai Electric Power Company, who sponsored and produced the film. This was later released on VHS one year later, and...has been stuck on the format since then.

In the anime, Japan builds a large space power plant called Saint Elmo with the intent of powering Earth via solar energy—but an unexpected & mysterious error causes Saint Elmo to cut off and drift off-course into the sun, resulting in widespread power outages across Earth. To combat this, several technicians are sent on a life-or-death mission to repair the power plant and save the planet. Also, talking animals and cuckolding, because why not?
Slightly related, but I also uploaded my own rip of the theme songs to this film onto YT if you wish to check those out as well. These were released on vinyl only and are still very hard to acquire physically these days—I'm unsure of the circumstances behind this release as it was never sold in stores. Maybe it could have been a promo item for those who ordered the VHS or distributed as a gift to those who were involved in the production of this film. Guess we'll never know.

Enjoy!
Yet another entry confirming that Matsumoto as a creator was crushed by overwhelming success too early in his career... Thanks for subbing this!
