Age Rating: 13+
Marika finds
out that her father has died. She never
knew him though. And her recently
deceased father was a space pirate; a captain, in fact. And she’s inherited his ship.
This anime was great and I enjoyed it a lot. Very fun and upbeat. It was too short, in my opinion. Two downsides:
There are so many potentially fantastic characters that they don’t get
into. If they had made it a season longer,
they could have delved into the development of those characters more (the only
really developed characters are Marika and one of her friends). The plus side to there not being tons of
character development is that the story was well put together. Other downside: I do not know why it was
necessary, but the makers decided to have two of Marika’s (female) upperclassmen
in school be in a relationship with one another. You don’t know this until all of a
sudden: la de da~~~~h they’re kissing in
front of you. Then proceed to kiss twice
more in the same episode. Luckily, it’s
limited to that single episode. But,
overall I’d give this anime an … … … … 8.5.
It had a good story, good animation, fun characters, fun action. They left enough things unsaid that they could
(and I hope they do) make another couple of seasons. Rated 13+ only because there’s a lot of sci-fi
content in it (and an episode of kissing girls) that smaller children wouldn’t
understand. Wow, that was a long
review. Whoopsies.
