Yay! An anime adaptation that may actually end the story like the Manga. That's pretty rare nowadays so great for them! Watch it air in 2018 in the same season that Shingeki no Kyojin S3 airs. SnK and SnK goodness! |

THERE IS A GOD!!!! I am absolutely in love with this Anime, Manga, and Studio!! When I heard there were no plans on continuing the series I was beyond upset and made it a personal mission to spread the word on how great and original this series is. In no small part of my own, I'm sure, I was excited as I saw the exposure and subsequent score grow. Thank You Polygon Pictures and Sentai Filmworks !! |

I was going to start watching this series today, but maybe I will wait for season 3 and start watching then. I read the manga years ago until I caught up to the raws and never got back into it after that. The more I think about the manga the more I remember how awesome it is. |

Okay, I would agree that it is watchable. But right now it is that ‘nothing but clichés’ type of mecha. Think for a second…, just for one second. There is no Zero Two chick in this anime. Will people watch it? No. She is like the only reason people are still watching it. Do not get me wrong, I am perfectly fine with the fact that some people are enjoying it; they are free to do it. And I too want to enjoy and find something good about this show, but it is too early for that. As far as I know, we do not know the date, but we know that there will be season 3. |

They also have the second Godzilla movie in May and a second season of Pingu in the City. They have a third Godzilla film too, which will likely come out in November given the sixth month gap between the first two. I don't expect to see Knights of Sidonia season 3 or Blame! movie 2 until 2019.

Maelstrom said: Yeah, the date is just my prediction. Kodansha probably isn't in a rush to get season 3 out since the manga ended in 2015. At least it will likely be one of the few modern anime to be a complete adaptation.64BitRatchet said: oh damn more waiting. didn't know they had a lot of projects this year. thanks for the info!Maelstrom said: any news? hoping its for summer 2018 or fall at best |

If season 3 keeps the timeslot that seasons 1 and 2 had, it will stream on Amazon instead of Netflix. |

Didn't anime stray from manga's path, remember(don't) reading and it was quite confusing after watching, thought there were quite heavy changes. Down for another season, but not really feeling rewatch, so don't know how it'll go. |

I absolutely loved season 1 and absolutely despised season 2. They can´t redeem themselves at this point on my opinion. Where was the realist hard sci-fi on S2. Where are the deaths? Where is the plot, nothing is explained about Ochiau or the Inmortal Council, origin of the Gaunas, where did they find those firs Kabis... Instead we get a shitty harem slice of life comedy. And I´m not against this kind of anime, but god the shift was to abrupt from season 1 to season 2. I´m not saying don´t put in romance, most mecha shows have had romance since forever, just do it in a convincing and mature way that harmonizes with the atmosphere that was previously presented. I will still be watching this anyway... |

Sidonia is not a hard sci-fi anime/manga. As far as "science fiction" goes, I believe that Sidonia leans more towards the "realistic" side of sci-fi than most. There is not FTL travel. Gundams/Mecha with multiple thrusters on their limbs operating under Newtonian physics will [i]always[/b] be more realistic than spacefighters with a single engine at the back flying as if they are in the air. The cloning technology is already plausible, and "laser" weapons can work, albeit if you look into alternatives such as particle weapons and electric cannons. To me, the most "unrealistic" aspect of the series was Sidonia's artificial gravity, (season 2 spoilers) Shizuka retaining a beautiful nubile body while infested by the Gauna, and the gauna-infested Gaurd that looked like a ballerina I for one enjoyed the SoL. It's rare to find a science fiction anime that takes aside the time to actually explore its speculative setting from the perspective of people's ordinary lives, outside of mecha pilots engaging in philosophy debates over open comms and Skynets trying to take over the world. It also lent tension to the crises that erupted, as we have become intimately familiar with the people and lives that are being threatened, and root for the heroes even more. As for character deaths, I'm of the opinion that the whole "characters must die for there to be stakes" trend that GoT started to be rather silly. Only one major character died in LotR (and did so 30% of the way into the story) and I was still unsure as to whether or not Faramir would overcome his jealously, if Saruman would realize that there still is hope, or if Frodo's soul would survive. In that case, Tolkien got me invested in "whether or not the character will overcome their flaw", not "whether or not they will survive". On that note, I am unable to recall if Nagate was in the midst of a moral or spiritual struggle. If so, that may explain why people are feeling as if there is no "question" outside of the obvious "will they defeat the Gauna? (ofcourse they will!)" It's been a couple year since I last watched Sidonia, so I may be remembering incorrectly. |

Then again there's always the off chance of not adapting the manga and just going anime original, which even worst case scenario it will still be better than the manga. |

@MilkmanDan mb, but i remember when continuing reading after season that something was confusing (mb it wasn't that bad), about Izana and Tsumugi. Definitely don't remember what, only the ending and even it here and there. |

You don't have to watch it just because they are adapting it. People who dislike the end were basically everyone was shipping Tanikaze with someone else. I didn't hate the manga ending because of ships, but because there are contradictions with earlier stated facts in that universe. For example, you get a hybrid if you have a child with placenta (how Tsumugi was born to begin with), yet the ending has a normal child that was born from the very same placenta as Tsumugi IIRC. That was number one. Number two is because of unanswered questions, like what happened when the captain and the MC were alone together? Did they talk? Did they do "it"? Did they play chess? Number 3 is because of the sex change at the end. Why wasn't Izana the one who changed sex when this third sex can change from female to male and vice versa depending on who they fall in love with? And last but not least, it just seems... Wrong that the captain and other important characters are suddenly tired of Sidonia and a majority of Sidonians are too, when those who wanted to colonize the planet was a minority not long before. Everything just seems wrong and off. That's why I hate the ending. It's true I wanted him to be with Izana (and why did the green haired girl fall in love with Izana when she was into Nagate? Whatevers), but that's not the main reason why I hate the ending. I probably won't watch this. I loved season 1 and 2, but having read the manga I don't want to have to see the the same godawful ending again. For fans of the anime, I suggest you stay away from the ending (likely being the 11th or 12th episode), as it's VERY disappointing. |

For fans of the anime, I suggest you stay away from the ending (likely being the 11th or 12th episode), as it's VERY disappointing. I liked the entire manga (inclusive the end) and i don't have any problems with the plot even though i still have some doubts about a few things. Now about your doubts... 1 - True Kunato said he impregnated the placenta to make the chimera, but Kuanato was trying to make a chimera not a human. It was not explained what other processes he did to make the chimera and what processes were done to make Tanikaze's daughter. He has a daughter with Tsumugi, but if you read the manga again you'll see that they never said his daughter was born direct in her womb. 1 - Sidonia technology was amazing at that point so it's not hard to imagine Nodoka (his daughter) being born as human (or looking like one at least) with the help of genetic engineering and most likely that's exactly what happened. 2 - What? Do you have any doubts about this? This spent 3 days together without anyone being able to communicate with them and the captain sure wanted her piece of Tanikaze there...not to mention Tanikaze's embarrass look when he met her gaze during the highest rank crew meeting. So yes they did it for sure. Also...it this really a reason for you to dislike the end? 3 - They never said that Izana (or others like her) could change sex over and over again. Most likely once her body changes into a gender it'll stay like that forever. It's a like a choice that once made can't be changed anymore. 4 - Sidonia was a seed ship and its SOLE purpose was to colonize other planets so why are you so surprised? You sound like that was something they would never do when in fact it was one the reasons for the ship to exist. When those other guys went to colonize that planet (the one that Tanikaze went to save the robot) there were still Gaunas around and most people seemed to think that was not a good idea to go to that planet. Also those were some weird guys who thought people should stop fighting the Gaunas...they were a dumb minority (like the earth flatteners we have here) and it's understandable that not many people would want to follow them. 4 -You are also missing two VERY KEY points here...they defeated the Gaunas (The nearby ones at least) and Sidonia stayed 10 years in that planet. It was not the same situation when those dumb guys went to that other planet. This was a really good opportunity and it was not a sudden decision since Sidonia stayed there for 10 years so it gave people the chance to see the planet and decide if they wanted to stay there or leave with Sidonia. 4 - I also don't think it's that strange for the captain and those other high ranking crew to decided to stay on the planet. They have been doing things for a long time in Sidonia (specially the captain) and living in the planet would be a new experience for them. Remember that the captain was more than 700 years old and the others seemed to be more than a 100 years old. The captain was also clearly tired of her post already and she found a good substitute for her so why not? Yuhata falling for Izana was strange, sure. It would haven been less sudden if the author had hinted it a little before, but he didn't. It's not strange for her to change from being into Tanikaze to now being into Izana (people's feelings change all the time), but the fact that there was not a hint about it at all made it very very strange. My post is already too long so i'm not going to write more, but if you have any other arguments then i would be happy to read them. |

I understand what you mean when saying Sidonia is more "realistic" than Gundam, but it's still very far from being truly realist so it cannot be called hard sci-fi. I agree with the other things you said. I enjoyed the manga a lot and i liked the sol stuff too. Sidonia was in space for more than 1000 years so i found it enjoyable to see their daily lives instead of just battles. It was one of the things i enjoyed about the manga. Care to elaborate what you considered asspull? |

This was a really good opportunity and it was not a sudden decision since Sidonia stayed there for 10 years so it gave people the chance to see the planet and decide if they wanted to stay there or leave with Sidonia. 4 - I also don't think it's that strange for the captain and those other high ranking crew to decided to stay on the planet. They have been doing things for a long time in Sidonia (specially the captain) and living in the planet would be a new experience for them. Remember that the captain was more than 700 years old and the others seemed to be more than a 100 years old. The captain was also clearly tired of her post already and she found a good substitute for her so why not? Yuhata falling for Izana was strange, sure. It would haven been less sudden if the author had hinted it a little before, but he didn't. It's not strange for her to change from being into Tanikaze to now being into Izana (people's feelings change all the time), but the fact that there was not a hint about it at all made it very very strange. My post is already too long so i'm not going to write more, but if you have any other arguments then i would be happy to read them. 1. In that case, the author should have explained it because from my view point, Tanikaze made Tsumugi's and his child the exact same way (though probably more intimate lol) as the old Tsumugi was made, thereby causing a paradox. 2. Yes I do. Nothing was explained at all, it was kind of an open question kind of thing to me, and I hated it. I wanted an answer, but then the ending came and so I feel like I didn't get one. I'm not good at these things, hence why I'm reading manga and not poems. 3. Well, that's true I suppose. In that case, shouldn't the author at least explain what Izana's body looked like before she fell in love with Tanikaze? Tanikaze asked "her" at some point, but he didn't get an answer which bothered me. Alternatively, the author could just have stated with a few words that this third sex can only change sex in their life and once it has decided to be man / woman, it won't change again. 4. Yes, but the captain at least was always highly skeptical of colonizing planets saying things like that the gauna will never leave them alone. She also knows that the gauna can hide and make themselves look like gas clouds and what not, so why would she suddenly feel safe on a planet? Why would she feel like they defeated the gauna for good when history has shown they can just be hiding somewhere nearby, waiting for the right moment to strike? I just can't see how she could change like that after living for centuries on a ship, and since she was kept eternally young, she shouldn't feel "too old" to stay captain. Then again, like you wrote, she did spend 10 years there on that planet and that might have made her feel complacent, it just doesn't feel like she has ever been that way, she just doesn't strike me as a character who, if given the choice, wants to settle down on a planet rather than stay on the ship. It feels like there was no foreshadowing of her ever wanting to stop being captain, but maybe I have just overlooked it. If we presume she wants to stay on the planet anyway, it doesn't change the fact that the number of people who wanted to colonize a planet was still a minority. Maybe I'm forgetting things, but didn't the manga say "People who wants to colonize the planet" and not "People who wants to give up weapons in the hopes that the gauna will leave them alone and then colonize the planet"? In that case, why would a majority now want to leave the ship? It just seems... Wrong to me. |

Nice the final season, really looking forward to it. I remember how I binged through the first season and I have to admit the CGI really fits well with the space setting. |

Season 2 was already just the CGI sci fi.Comander-07 said: Nice the final season, really looking forward to it.
