 Well, after seeing what was one of the best and probably the most overlooked and show of the spring season, I felt compelled to recommend this. Even more, after seeing that awesome ending. If you're looking for an unique show, with an epic story line, interesting characters major character development and a OST to match, look no further. Granted that it's unique aspects may throw some people of, specially in what relates to the art style. Still, defeat the initial skepticism and you'll be taken for a ride no other show has to offer. For the people still skeptic about starting it, feel free to read my review on the show. "Careful" though, 'coz it's huge :) |

| Okay, I fail XD I'll probably marathon it this weekend or the next. For sure before the new season starts. |
 |
| I'm always looking for something good to watch and going off your well written review it looks like it's something I'd be interested in. I found a nice batch torrent so I'll give it a whirl when it finishes downloading. |
 ...even a saint needs a soldier to do the dirty work. |
| Is there any type of comedy romance development? If not then I don't really care to watch another space wars show. |

There's only a few hints of romance but it's pretty much left unexplored and has little relevance to the storyline. And the show has drama focused story, there's hardly any comedy around. Is there any type of comedy romance development? If not then I don't really care to watch another space wars show. So I guess it's not something you'd be interested in at this time. But keep it in mind if you're ever looking for a unique and great series to watch :) |
|
| I totally agree. It's not at all appreciated enough. I was quite affected by the impact of all the intensity this anime was constantly providing. It's over now, with an amazing ending that didn't fall short or let me down. I still wish it could have been longer so I could enjoy more of the greatness of Terra e! Anyone should watch it. It's just so good. |
 |
| Good job hyping it up AFTER the show gets liscensed :( cant find a torrent for the first 13 eps EDIT: nvm leave it to isohunt to have the big packs :P |
  "What happens when we die?" I know that the ones who love us will miss us. |
| is it anything similar to the orgininal movie? |
 |
| I was waiting for it all to be subbed. I knew this was gonig to be fantastic but I don't think I could've handled waiting for it all to unfold. Just finished ep 1, should be gonig great from here on out. |
    Sam is my sweet peach |
| ah ok, ive seen the movie but not the series, ill have to add to plan to watch then! :) |

|
| Whole heartedly agree. This is one of the best shows I've ever seen. Definately underrated. Epic, insightful storyline, realistic characters and people actual die when they are killed. Not to mention great art, animation and music. Quick subbing and an ending that delivers. I don't understand how this was overlooked besides the slight 80s-ish style. |
 |
| Well I've seen the movie 2 days ago I think. Really old school. It's cool, but I'll only recommend it too people if they enjoyed the TV series a lot. Speaking of the TV series.. there's still not too many people watching. Let's go people, I'm sure you won't regret watching. :) |
|
| I'm watching =D Rather slowly, perhaps, but now that the show is finished airing I plan on devouring the rest of the episodes as soon as I have time. |
 |
| Toward the Terra was in my thoughts the most unique, creative and warming anime that was released all year! When I first started watching it I had no idea that it would ever be so epic and amazing! It is totally under appreciated. As far as the movie goes though, don't let is dissuade future watchers! I tried to watch it but couldn't get into it like I did the series. It like comparing X 1999 to X the movie, they just can't compare! Anyways... one of the best series ever, and I promise you its not just another space battle series! |
| Started watching it a week and a half or so ago (thanks to the pretty art in /cm/, damn them and their ways of getting me to watch stuff) when I really didn't have the time, hopefully I'll be able to watch more. Loving it so far :) |

| (Amazing Amazing Amazing Amazing Amazing Amazing Amazing Amazing Amazing)^1000 Im still in Epi 18 but this anime is simply the best after Evangelion IMHO. I could give 10/10 to everything but i havent seen everything yeat. 10/10 until now :P |

| Lol, lemme guess.. MAL was slow and you ended up double posting :) Static said: Too bad they probably don't know "Lusiadas". But yeah. Terra e... is epic.Damn i could almost compare this to "Lusiadas" From Luis de Camões. Simply Epic... Epicly amazing. |
|
| Ops i forgot that part. Lusiadas From wikipedia. Some knowlage for you :P |
Krelian said: I'm watching =D Rather slowly, perhaps, but now that the show is finished airing I plan on devouring the rest of the episodes as soon as I have time. I can't imagine thinking it's slow. I guess the first couple of episodes might give that impression, but soon it will kick into overdrive. I think the beginning gives a bad impression that Jomy is going to be emo forever, but it's so far from the truth. I would recommend anyone watching to at least watch until Keith is introduced since that is when the real fun starts. |
| I'm watching it, but I didn't like how they suddenly started another arc while leaving the first so open. |
| Epic Ending. Epic last 15 seconds. Epic series. XD Terra E goes for 10/10... No questions about it. |
delorean said: You're probably talking about the first 5 eps right. Don't worry, the story will re-pick those events later.. and both that and the arc that lasts till episode 9 will come together.I'm watching it, but I didn't like how they suddenly started another arc while leaving the first so open. -------------- Well I just finished rewatching, and I probably enjoyed the show even more this time. Seriously... this show is not something to be missed, period. |
|
| i think that terra was one of the best series of the season. i wish it was longer! 10\10 |
 |
| Well maybe i should say thanks you to Kay for talking about this show so much (too much maybe? :P) or I would have missed it. Easily the best anime for spring season, this year, last year, 10 years whatever :D Just awesome. |
| Faust, I'm gonna quote you from the "Last anime you finished?" thread. Hope you don't mind. Faust721 said: Toward the Terra - One of the most interesting anime I have ever seen. I love how it expanded over many years and how the wide variety of characters were developed. The only thing that stopped it from making me give a perfect score is that it didn't quite move me like TTGL did. (9/10) itainteazy said: Eazy wins! For real~ ;) (and you're welcome!)Well maybe i should say thanks you to Kay for talking about this show so much (too much maybe? :P) or I would have missed it. Easily the best anime for spring season, this year, last year, 10 years whatever :D Just awesome. And that's right, maybe I am talking too much about it... But that's just because I know how great the show is, and how overlooked it was. I want people to try it out as well. ^_^ |
|
| holy shit eazy, you gave it your top spot and and 4 characters spots. I guess i should give thanks to you too Kay. Since I was gonna watch it eventually, I give thanks for making me move it ahead a few weeks (perhaps even a few months) ahead of schedule. Toward the Terra might be the first anime (20+ episodes and 20+ min) that i have ever mararthoned. |
| |
| Tbh i didnt marathoned mine but i wanted too... Simply i had lack of time to do it... |

That comment was directed towards the speed at which I've been watching =P I just finished episode 9, and am hoping to finish the rest before the night is up. Episode 9 was brilliant - very dramatic - and convinced me to bump my rating up to a 10. If the show gets any better I expect it'll work its way into my favorites list. So far it gets big thumbs up for music, art, character development, and most everything else. I can't think of anything at all negative to say. |

| i won't miss this one, for sure. ^_^ |
逃げちゃ駄目だ。 |
| Wow, just finished it. Really, just wow. It was brilliant, I loved the ending of the show, but maybe it could have been 1-2 minutes longer. I'm going to hunt for the ost, especially the opening / ending and some wallpapers now. I really liked how they depicted Negima in the last 10-15 seconds. In the beginning I wasn't really afraid of Jomy being emo from ep1-24, I mean, not after Twelve kingdoms.. The main character is a terrible little bitch, but the character development was awesome there (she's one of my favourite characters now), just like in Terra e.. |
Kayrhandros said: Seems it already did enter your favorite list :) Indeed, and it nearly makes the top spot. It has to be the most underrated/underwatched show ever. Out of curiousity, does it remind anyone else a bit of Battlestar Galactica? |

As for the OST, it's without a doubt in my top 3 best anime OSTs ever, and all OP/ED themes are pretty awesome in their own genre.

| Well, this is truly an amazing anime and I thoroughly enjoyed it. The only beef I have with it is the large amount of important characters that died. Sure, some of them had to, but so many...it's heartwrenching, especially |
| lol this was worth all my time!! i strongly recommend this! |
| I will write what a friend from school told me about the series ( I just handed him a DVD and say: Watch that) Until episode 7 its kinda boring... But after that Wooot! i didnt leave the PC until i ended that. The ending is very good but i wanted less death... Still i fking hate you for giving me the DVD with Terra E just now... Well i think that will be a 10/10 :p... Now i just have to convince him to do a ANL. @ Windy: Imho i think Death was is a major part of the anime plot and yes i got kinda depressed with so much death... |
| Well, the story of the show is about a war, and it spreads out over many years. The death aspect was more than necessary. And they made use of it quite well. |

| Took me some time but I also finished it today, I'm really grateful to the people who put so much effort into promoting this show, it is really, really good. Interesting aspects and good animation. I can only recommend it. [edit]: In case my post sounds underwhelming, I rated it a 10. |

| Just finished it. 9/10 Amazing series that I'm seriously ashamed that I didn't pick up earlier, I was expecting it to be a generic sci-fi ordeal (along the crappiness of Heroic Age) but It was just brilliant. Characters were all decent and gave off decent emotion, music was absolutely brilliant, animation was awesome and the story was gripping. |

OmegaJudgement said: Heh, don't be. I only picked up the show 2monts or so, after it had started. Like most people, I believe, I was also thrown off by that "ugly" first cover. I wouldn't have picked the show up if I hadn't accidentally seen snapshots of the it in Saizen's webpage.Amazing series that I'm seriously ashamed that I didn't pick up earlier, I was expecting it to be a generic sci-fi ordeal (along the crappiness of Heroic Age) but It was just brilliant.
