| Just finished the series and I'm going to have to say that this is one of the good ones. Entertaining and engaging Solty Rei kind of wanders a little bit early on after the establishing episodes, then settles down nicely. I wish they would have gone at least 2 more episodes to go a little more in depth with RUC and the back story of the planet they're on... or maybe just a couple of episodes featuring Solty the Jr Bounty Hunter after Roy had finally accepted her. Regardless, this is a good series to watch; enough twists and turns to keep you guessing and although, like many animes, it gets a bit darker at the end, it doesn't get psychotic. |
| I gotta say, the ending was quite good. Not only was there a time skip, there was 2! It was touching how Roy said he could wait more since he waited 12 years for Rose. I guess he got fed up and went searching for her though. I loved the music in the anime too, quite fitting. |

| i was really happy with how this show ended. the second time skip was a nice touch as well though i do wonder if he let her RIP or brought her back down. either way i'm glad i decided to pick that show up. i do agree that they should have done a back story on the planet at least. and where is earth and stuff? |
 |
| Great series tbh. And last scene was touching..this is how an anime should be an executed. Anyways, going to watch the OVA soon and got a solid 8/10 from me. |
 |
| loved this series overall, just wish we had gotten to see that birthday party for Solty upon her return even if it was 5+ years late lol |
| Um, wow. That was an extremely clumsy crawl to a heartfelt ending. I'm surprised it turned out as well as it did. Honestly, I wasn't too impressed early on with Solty completely beating the hell of out Roy's enemies. I was, however, truly amused by Jouji Nakata acting flustered, which got me to like the other characters by association. When the drama hit, it definitely worked on me, and I appreciated how heavily it came down. I've seen my share of death drama in anime, but it's been a while since I've seen grief portrayed so intensely. It's also the reason why I was so concerned when Rose came back and when Roy stood to lose Solty towards the end. That being said, I'm just glad that Roy finally stopped getting kicked around by the plot and got his happy end. It shows just how invested I got, which is a surprised given how rough the show started. This is, perhaps, one of the few shows I've seen where both the parent and kids are main characters, as well as one of the few shows where the parent is also the focus. I don't know how I randomly came across this show, but I'm glad I did. |
| All honesty, this was a beautiful anime. One of my favs! |
| I couldnt take it anymore. After about episode 6, I just had to see the last ep and move on with my life lol. NOt a bad ending. ^^ |
| I wish there were a few more episodes to go with this. Is Integra a vegetable? Is Larry protecting Accela? So many more questions... And the second time lapse was just so beautiful. My eyes teared up so many times. 9/10 show. |
 |
| I cried the first time I watched and I'm crying again. Solty is the best girl |
If you are going to disagree with me, don't bother talking to me. I will seriously hurt you! |
| Generic anime, takes too long to get going. Generic villain who the show tries to humanizing after straight out murdering someone. For no reason either, no point on turning on his subordinates, even if they won't be useful anymore, was just for shock value. Could have shoved them to the side instead of causing an uproar that then turned the attention of Solty and gang toward him. Left cold at end as I don't feel the anime did a good job making me care about any of these characters. |
 |
| You can see my comments every e[episodes i hated that she was a robot because I could care less about robots, BUT this was the only time i cry for a robot, Solty is very adorable and sad scenes. Roy at 50 is still relatively young glad they find her but i didnt like Roy went to space I know they wanted another touchy scene but I laughed. Also they gave her the Iron Giant ending so cliche |

| Good concept but poor execution. Characters are rather 1 dimensional and unmemorable, and the plot is all over the place, despite being 2 cours long. Feels like they took the typical "original anime template" filled in the blanks. |
