Synopsis | SF drama, about the relationship between a teenage mecha pilot sent off to pursue aliens in a long-term war and her boyfriend, left behind on Earth and growing up without her as each hyperspace jump her ship makes increases the age gap between them. |
Review | Aliens are detected after an attack on Martian settlers, and are pursued through the outer reaches of the Solar system, with a contact and armed clash occurring near Pluto. The pursuit then jumps to the solar system of a nearby star. The two main characters communicate by e-mail, with the inward mail coming at increasingly long intervals. This anime is excellently scripted and excellently animated, and very moving. If you like sci-fi at all it's well worth tracking down. |
