Suisei no Gargantia - Aura - May 7, 2016

[Image: 48817.jpg]

Quote:In the distant future, a majority of humans have left the Earth, and the Galactic Alliance of Humanity is founded to guide exploration and ensure the prosperity of mankind. However, a significant threat arises in the form of strange creatures called Hideauze, resulting in an interstellar war to prevent humanity's extinction. Armed with Chamber, an autonomous robot, 16-year-old lieutenant Ledo of the Galactic Alliance joins the battle against the monsters. In an unfortunate turn of events, Ledo loses control during the battle and is cast out to the far reaches of space, crash-landing on a waterlogged Earth.

On the blue planet, Gargantia—a large fleet of scavenger ships—comes across Chamber and retrieves it from the ocean, thinking they have salvaged something of value. Mistaking their actions for hostility, Ledo sneaks aboard and takes a young messenger girl named Amy hostage, only to realize that the residents of Gargantia are not as dangerous as he had believed. Faced with uncertainty, and unable to communicate with his comrades in space, Ledo attempts to get his bearings and acclimate to a new lifestyle. But his peaceful days are about to be short-lived, as there is more to this ocean-covered planet than meets the eye.

I started watching this Anime because I've been looking for other works from Production I.G, since I like their style and I realized that I watched and loved a lot of their work. Noticed the high popularity ranking on MAL, and that I already had it on my PTW list. I like the concept, and also how the MC drifts from being an "heartless robot" to an actual decent human being. Also, much cuties, much waifus, adding Saya to my harem.

When I watched this maybe 3 months ago I really really enjoyed it. Love most mecha series because their all so different and have so many different sci-fi aspects and themes such as some are post apapocalyptic ; etc. Gargantuan just felt like a nice 13 ep series ~

Super disappointed when they announced that season two was cancelled.

NO WAY. Why would they cancel Season 2?!

I mean it's good but it's not that good.

Watched it when it was ongoing, pretty good start, got a bit slow and boring in the middle but gladly I did not drop it.
When we started reaching the end, it got better, overall I liked it.

For those that liked this, I really recommend watching Black Bible, you'll find that its similar in many aspects.

As far as Sci-Fi mech anime's go I enjoyed it a decent amount. It definitely needed to get a season two even though season one ended on a good note. A season two would have helped clear some things up and elaborate more on the events after season one.
