| This might be my entryway into space sci-fi. Never really been a fan before this, but the planets act more like a fantasy setting than a sci-fi setting so it's very enjoyable. Very colorful and creative, the trampoline tree scene was like some real life 3D platformer game. The drama with the sister was kind of meh though. |

| I watched the first episode and I was disappointed by the generic characters and lack of common sense. I decided to keep watchimg hoping it would get better but I was wrong. I believe the characters to be generic and have no real depth outside of their trope but that doesn't necessarily mean they are dislikable. Quitterie seems to have no real reason for being extrememly rude other than that her mother around which is no justification for her bitchiness. Im the first episode Kanata wastes so much thrust to get to her instead of letting his momentum go. Some people say that they're just highschoolers but it's just common sense. Thats the major gripes I have with it and why I see it as bad but if you like it good to you. |
| Baseball is the new game. |
| I like them as a team but most of the characters don't seem very unique. The character development we got in this episode for the tsundere girl was mediocre and it just felt way too rushed imo, guess we'll have to wait to see if she'll indeed try to act more mature. And the one who cut the communicator is most likely the loner guy, if it isn't him i'll be surprised. Hmm.. everything aside, I wonder if this will be one planet per episode or we'll get some episodes with trouble in space or something like that. |
 |
| I cant believe they left out that taste testing scene. I am getting angry now |
| Twitter and it's consequences had been a disaster for the human race |
| Well, it's episode two and I'm still finding the comedy quite terrible and out of place during most of the scenes. I guess this will be my biggest complaint when I finish this series. Also, Quitterie was even more annoying here than in the previous episode, especially with that outburst against Funicia but at least, it seems she will stop being a bother from now on, I hope. Overall, not really impressed by this episode. It had lots of conveniences happening and some resolutions from the cast were rather absurd to say the least. P.S.: The OST is being great so far tho. |
| I call bullshit! How can Funi look so much like Quitterie but then they drop on us that they aren’t actually related?! What’s the point of making them look so similar then! Lieesssss her mom had an affair or something. long lost sister she wants to claim is adopted! Either that or it’s her cousin or something. |
| Surprisingly really good. This show is really intense. Like, wow. There's so much potential with it! Can manga reader spoil me on some things? Plz reply in spoiler tags if you can so anime-only people won't be spoiled. 1. The ball thing will be explained, right? Is it natural or not natural? 2. Is there romance later on? If so, is there gonna be a love triangle? 3. Does this show get much darker? Or is it gonna be around the same level as current? 4. Does the manga have a conclusive ending? |
| here is what i can agree with from what i have read of this thread and this anime. 1. Pacing does seem rushed 2. the laugh at the end oh my god. 3. power of friend and all that generic stuff Here is my bit of speculation the Bad guy if you will is most likely the loner trajectory genies from EP 1 after all from a sort of realistic stretch the black orb is a mobile black hole transporter of sorts using that would require some skill and quick trajectory math for targeting and what not. we may even have a second bad guy in the noting special girl with black hair trying not to stand out or be memorable... bad guy or observer trait i think. the blonde co captain is overly analytical for some reason which leads me to believe this whole thing is a big test of some kind. any manga readers who would like to spoil me on the whole thing feel free. |
| Holy shit, I'm enjoying this. At first I thought it would be some generic space show with high school students, but this was super engaging. The characters have really good chemistry with one another, and the setting in interesting. Each episode seems to have so much development and significance. Really hoping it continues like this. |

And compare it with pretty much any other sci-fi title either anime or western movies. Life in planets is scarse to almost unexistant between different systems, but in here it's incredibly "convenient" that they have a simple straight line of habitable planets that will have the right resources for them to refill and keep their "roadtrip" going. Yes, galaxies have billions of stars but their proximity to provide a sustainable enviroment is laughably hoodgepodge from the writer's perspective. But then again, you already stated that you believe whatever shit comes out of the writers work, so there's no point for you to keep barking at me because you're just a gullible guy that buys any scenario depicted. Faendras said: A galaxy has a lot of planetary systems, they are just travelling between some of them, those that have habitable planets. (Anyway, their calculations are still a nonsense in a lot of ways). You're already agreeing with me that this route wheter it's between a single system or different systems in a galaxy is awfully convenient in terms of sustainable life in these planets. |

| I don't like how most of them are so carefree on the new discovered planet where everything could be dangerous. I'm really not sure if I like this anime or not, the characters are acting stupid and immature in first half of both episodes, then something dangerous happends and everyone are magicly united and acting different. I know that they are kids that are lost in space, but still it is ruining the immersion. |
Digimon is the best Isekai  |
| Charce's reaction to Aries having a photographic memory seems suspicious. Like he's done something that she might notice. |
| WOW, Episode 2, and I'm still NOT at all disappointed! 5 chapters from the manga feels like the pacing went out of draft, BUT somehow this episode really makes use of the fast pacing to its ultimate strengths. Impressive and a hell of a job well done, if this keeps up we may see a FULL, PROPER adaptation. Kanata really is still that running joke of a leader, but his leadership tells throughout the episode. It's not like a choice that he had to follow, it's the "do or die" moments that made him that way. EVEN BETTER, Quitterie's backstory and her relationship with the adopted Funicia. Hard to see someone's life ravaged of parentship, even as Zack's childhood friend (which Quitterie still isn't fond of). A traitor on the ship??? What gives? And that "black hole" sphere, what is the purpose of that appearance? Wishing that the next episode will come now. I want more! |

Take our solar system as an example out of all the planets only one is in the right place to hold life. Holy shit, are you for real? P.S. Seriously, why are you guys arguing with a person who made such a statement in full seriousness. trust me after i read that comment of his everything became clear to me Mayuka said: Surprisingly really good.

swn said: Nim0174 said: @zemrood good point actually pointing out that there is only 1 route, that is weird gotta agree with you there. With there initial search parameters, they weren't even able to find one route. After adjusting and compromising on those parameters they were able to find one route. There might've been more routes but those would require relaxing the parameters even further. that also makes sense, the parameters for it could be highly sensitive |

| Did anyone else lose it at the end when Aries burst out laughing. I had to rewind and then check if headphones were not malfunctioning lol XD |
| For the traitor, my money is on the Aries (pink hair girl). she is the least suspicious one and perfect for the plot twist, also lets not forget evil laugh at the end! |

| Hmm. I really liked the first episode but this one took a sillier route, bland backstories. I'm going to keep on watching though, I like the premise. Just not what I was hoping for, I guess I was expecting something along the lines of Made in Abyss with the exploration... |
| It's just the 2nd episode but I don't understand anymore why I'm liking this one so much. This might be really the anime of the season for me. |
| Ahhhh this show is so refreshing!!!! I'd been craving a space exploration anime for a while now and so far, I'm really enjoying this. @_@ |
| The first half of this episode was so funny and then BAM... that twist at the end there! I don't understand how Funi & Quitterie aren't blood related yet look identical! Also, Aries has the best laugh ever haha |

You are just begging to get spoilt when you make comments like these. Lol true, but also it just goes to show the cover story was just weak. You can’t trick me! |
| What do does the show mean when it says they are not related?! They look almost exactly the same. They have all the same features. |
| Great epised and I'm calling this Quitterie and Funicia are F***** clones! Funicia can't be adopted and looks so similar (eyes, skin, hair have the same color) and the fact that Quitterie didn't had a father and her mother was too busy working and lack of feelings towards her children. This looks too suspicious. Also I see Aries is trying win competition for most forced and awkward laugh but Tidus and Yuna will always be on podium! |

| I am loving the hell out of this, Kanata's got balls of fcking steel. Tan blonde girl is a bitch in the making and guesses on who the a-hole fcking up their ships are? most obvious ones are the edgy looking dude and glasses girl, but maybe the author will go with someone not obvious like the blonde dude. Best characters so far are Kanata,Aries and IQ 200 dude. Can't even remember their names properly besides the 2 good ones. Also.. was Aries' laugh supposed to be that awkward? or can Minase Inori just not laugh during the session? cause that was such an awkward laugh lol. |

| Man, writing in this show is so bad. Something along the lines of middle school play. Characters are either spouting tired cliches or acting like complete retards. Waltzing like nothing into an unknown territory, touching plants and animals that could easily be dangerous and going on flashback trips that have shit to do with their situation but are supposed to replace actual character development. You can't call this show good. You can call it enjoyable if you get a kick from B class movies or corny fanfictions written for shits and giggles, but not good if you've ever read or watched something of value... |
Ii tenki desu ne... |
| Funicia and Quiterrie are not real siblings?? That's hard to believe cuz they are so similar (like the eye colors and skin)... I couldn't even imagine the girls aren't related by blood :/ I'm shocked and also surprised by the revelation. What the... Aries's laught is... very exquisite. Very forced in my opinion ^^; Someone just sabotage the ship? Who would do something like this :( That's terrible! Great episode! There was a lot of emotions. Just by watching these two first episodes, I feel like this will be one of the best anime of 2019! Very good and I can't wait to watch the rest ^^ |

There's no problem with people debating, except you guys don't offer anything constructive and worthwhile to the discussion except trashing it and calling it "shit" and "not even writing". OF COURSE you're going to be called "trolling" and "rude" if you word things like that, what else would you expect? I actually do think your gripes with the series thus far have a point, but the way you word it just leaves a bad taste in everyone's mouths. First of all, I haven't said either of those. Second of all, I agree that calling it "shit" would be annoying if people were only using one word arguments. But everyone is writing more than that. As for me, as in what I have written, what would be some examples of some of the stuff I have said that leaves a bad taste in people's mouths or is "rude" or "trolling"? ProofByColor said: Spaceship said: The trailer for the series promised something entirely more edgy and dramatic, and I think I probably speak for a lot of us when I say I'm wrestling with what my expectations were going in. Ikr... idk what they were thinking making the PV what's probably the most intense moment in the entire friggin series. Way to troll literally everyone who saw the PV and thought this would be really intense sci-fi thriller or something... I heard the second half gets pretty crazzy. I'm looking forward to that. morihama said: This might be my entryway into space sci-fi.

You might like some of Leiji Matsumoto's work or you might enjoy Cowboy Bebop. Judging from your profile, you're still really early in the anime game. There's a lot of good shows out there. CrasianLe said: i love how no one is talking about how amazing Kanata was risking his life to save Funi. he deserves to be the captain not just because of that but because he can definitely make good decisions under pressure and keeping the team together wen hope seems lose. great episode I mean that's definitely a thing a good person would do, but everything about that scene was stupid/ridiculous in my opinion. The way Zack coincidentally remembers that stuff about Kanata, the fact he made those jumps at all, and that "the need to help his friends is what caused him to make that jump", and the forced intensity at the end where it looked like he was going to fall.

Lieesssss her mom had an affair or something. long lost sister she wants to claim is adopted! Either that or it’s her cousin or something. I agree, that was kind of weird. It just seems like a poor choice of character design. It would make you assume that they were designed to be blood sisters at first, but the Mangaka changed his mind and just didn't redesign her. But I'm assuming too much here. There might be a reason for it. AnimeJunky said: Charce's reaction to Aries having a photographic memory seems suspicious.

I hope it does. Made In Abyss put a lot of thought into it's creatures. The other thing I liked about Made In Abyss is how much the tone shifted in episode 10, so if this show had a tone shift, that would be pretty cool.

On the first half I agree with you, but as for the second paragraph, I would say that kind of thing is mostly subjective. It's a relative thing. Some people would consider it good so far.

| Just like I mentioned with Episode 1, this anime still feels refreshing, even after Episode 2. My highest personal enjoyment would most likely be this anime and sure it has its flaws... but what doesn't nowadays... I don't really enjoy sci-fi (let alone space sci-fi) in general and actually thought this would end up around a 6 for me, but damn have I underestimated this one and I'm really happy about that it changed my view of it. |
