If anyone hasn't seen the remake of this (Space Battleship Yamato) I would highly recommend it, its like BSG but with a good ending. An absolute banger!

Edit: Don't skip the theme

Are there lore reasons to keep the nautical ship features like the bulbous bow if they’re in space?

Kind of.

During the construction of the Yamato, earth is under siege by the Gamillan empire.

Mankind lives underground, as any visible sign of civilization on the surface gets nuked from orbit.

The ship isn't built to look like the original seafaring ship, it IS the original seafaring ship, the wreck converted into a spaceship from the inside out, so as to not attract bombardment.
