THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- So far so good. Stylish retro animation and character designs paired with a somewhat orchestral score. Shame the story development is generic, maybe there will be some twists later. And what is Char doing here? oO EDIT Not mentioning that Ozuma and part of the setting reminds me of Dune (albeit only a bit).

Interesting, CR's stream had an English version of the opening while the TV broadcast used the Japanese version. |

The episode was pretty good, not as dramatic as previous titles by Matsumoto-sama. The characters seem pretty likeable, maybe not as much as in Galaxy Railways, but still it was nice to see some cheerful attitude. And Bainas... Did I overlooked something or did Harlock and Emeraldas merged into one badass being? xD Also, it was nice to see another alcohol-loving doctor :D I also like the setting, reminds me of Vampire Hunter D: Bloodlust/Dune/Mad Max/Tank Girl. I'll need to listen to the full version of the ED, once the Single will come out, quite beautiful song :D The OP was nice as well, it's not something I'd like to listen to often, but as the opening theme - fits pretty nicely. The only thing I didn't liked was CG, the tanks looked a bit out of place during some scenes, but I guess it's just me and my hatred towards CG. I rate it 7 for now.

I wonder if all the episodes will be available for free from next week onwards. (CR) "There is a road in the hearts of all of us, hidden and seldom traveled, which leads to an unknown, secret place." |

This was actually alot better than I expected. I dig the art style and character design overall. I still can't get over the fact that Sam has the same voice actor as Natsu, it's just distracting |

Wow I like anime alot. Too bad its only 6 eps long. Maya is cute. I love the look on that military captain after he learned their ship could dive into the sand. |

I don't know if it's because this is my first Matsumoto series (excepting a couple episodes of Harlock) but I really liked this. It felt like a breath of fresh air to me. I am just hoping a compelling story can be told in only 6 episodes. |

The world needs more characters like Bainas(captain), the first episode was good but i fear thats all this series will be. It seems way to short to tell a true retro sci-fi story. |

The character design is pretty old-school which doesn't really appeal to me and I don't really like all the comical aspects but I'm interested in the setting and the conflict potential of the story and the BGM sounds good as well. |

seem old school.....i like it :D.....great character design....but i can read pretty deep to the story which is sad....i am hoping for some turnover or surprise...waiting for another ep :P If you aren't troubling the rest of the world, then there's no harm in being abnormal.  |

To be honest, from reading the description, I hoped this wouldn't be one of those 'magical female damzel in distress type' with a bloke haveing to 'be the man and look after her', as it really sound like it, though this seems refreshing... I'm greatful this 'mystery lady' isn't a little girl - roles seem reverse appearance wise and such change is welcome. I'm watching Brave 10 at the mo', and this female looks just like Isanami (that type of female mentioed before) though. :P All looks good at the moment. I like the fast pacing, the changing scenery, the old anime art style and the length (6 ep's). The characters seem fine too.  |
