Great episode guyz.
Please learn about cel animation and its technical process.
Learn how special effects and backlighting were done without computers.

The graphics are stunning, I love the animation so far. Also, the fact that the MC is pretty much a weapon of mass destruction is hinting some dark relations

The OP is pretty nice.

It's cool how the not-so-advanced humans have construction robots which can defend and go underwater.
Also, they have wings like what Leonardo Da Vinci made.

I like the concept of Earth being frozen and humans leaving it. But then it unfroze and people live on it on ships.
I also like the OST when Amy talked to her brother.

The Galaxy Path thing is pretty amazing. Lightning coming out of the ocean.

Oh look, there are pirates. And they seem more advanced than the not-so-advanced humans. Too bad Ledo and Chamber killed them all with their awesome ability to find out if the target is an enemy or not.
And lol at Chamber for being a translator.

I'm liking this anime.
I’m always searching for something, for someone. This feeling has possessed me I think, from that day… That day when the stars came falling.

I don't always vaporize people, but when I do, I make sure they're enemy pirate scum.

Now if I was there with Bellows, I would find the instant vaporization of humans pretty frickin' traumatizing (◎_◎;) ! I mean, the pirates were bad people, but you can't frickin' erase them off the face of the planet! No reform, no remains, they're just... nothin' ヽ( ・_・)ノ. I'm pretty sure the naval commander is going to have trust issues with this guy now. yep, that's where this is going. Amy's going to be screaming that everyone should trust him, while the higher-ups will be busy either trying to lock him up, deny his help, or destroy him (like the blond rig worker wants to).

What's the point in having a pilot for a machine such as that? The guy isn't even doing anything. Their alliance should just use unmanned ships. Fighting potential would probably be the same and they wouldn't have any deaths...

Another great episode. I really like the setting. And Amy already grew on me, she is cute and I just like her whole design :D

OP and ED are not bad, let's see if they will grow on me :)
Also, that ED animation is just cute :3

Wow. Chamber killed them like it was nothing. Something about people disintegrating is very disturbing to me. It just freaks me out. A very good episode.

Holy shit he just zapped the pirates into dust and im surprised the anime didint show boobs when the dress was ripped. Im glad that not everyone isint dumb enough to agree of trying to take over the giant killer robot. It also seems ledos world has no regualr or cooked food just squeez tubes. Sounds like a horrible life to me. I like we got an explanation on how these boats actually survive which is basically by luck. Also is it me or is this water world the anime?

I don't think the people who were not on Bellow's ship know what happend yet - the smoke covers the whole scene. And the people on the ship..they are probably still wondering, too.

And i kinda like that we didn't get to see the boobs. I mean, the reaction of the pirate, ripping off that dress or whatever was superp. They are robbing a ship, probably ready to kill if needed, but they make sure nobody is hurt otherwise or what? I expected them to kidnap all the girls, and maybe the men, too.

But there's a time for everything, and seeing how anime like Highschool DxD shove them in your face (or at least the MC's face), it's good to have anime like this as balance - if it keeps that way.

Though i wonder how the girls can use all the stairs, slide down the handrail and surf/fly with that kite given their short skirts without exposing anything...

Good world building and character building episode with a blast of insane fury at the end. It was like the climactic battle between a man with a flamethrower and a a small cloud of gnats. Overpowered doesn't describe it, but that makes sense in context.

Gotta admit that the start was promising. Although it does lack the bit of action that umm... like "Buddy Complex" anime had but still, I think that the mecha does qualify as being "cool". The story seems really promising and i sure hope it gets better. Heh that earth freezing all up and the ones who remained behind & those who escaped in the space are like fairy tale to each other is really some fantasy :D Nice concept though; meeting your own race in your planet of origin which was supposedly destroyed.

Interesting development. The "sharing a dried fish with me to show me friendship" scene is great, and the slaughter of the pirates scene is also great considering the budding humanity and relationship right before it.

Pleasantly surprised to see Ledo (and Chamber) just vaporise the pirates outright; I almost expected him to inconvenience himself trying to incapacitate them while simultaneously keeping them alive, as they were "fellow humans". Definitely a step down in danger from the squid aliens Ledo was battling in the first episode. With how ruinous they were, you'd wonder if there's even any Galactic Alliance left for Chamber to contact after six months.

No doubt this'll endear Ledo more to the crew, after making a bad first impression.

I did want to see the tits though (╥﹏╥)

Uhhhh am I the only one who thought of Aang from ATLA when Amy used her glider in the OP? LOL she even has a flying squirrel as a pet, and I guess her clothes are kind of similar too

But it looks like the Alliance has been hiding things from their people

Also wow those pirates really did not stand a chance 0_0
