Serenity is a cooler ship! Deff not a more bad ass ship but certainly cooler. I like ships that get modified from thier original purpose. Of course Yamato was never meant to go into space, but it remains a battleship. Serenity was a simple hauler that got turned into a smugler and a low profile taxi. The crew is kind of like todays gangsters. You don't expect the Escalade to shoot you but the dudes inside might. Yamato simple comes in, fires it's ginormous gun and leaves. Again, kick ass but not cooler.

I don't even know where to start... what vs what..... really, i guess all 9 people on the planet who watched both these shows will be excited.

Hmm... In all honesty, the yamato might be the cooler ship with its giant gun and bells and whistles, but i have to go with serenity. She's so much more than the standard firefly class freighter and she looks awesome when she bursts to light.
