Toward the Terra TV
1 NOV
2009
It has been a while since i watched an anime that i felt was worth a blog post/mini-review. I had remembered hearing about this show when it first aired in 2007 as the sleeper series of the year. I now understand why that is. The setup for the series is a bit longer than normal for a 24 episode show. You don't really start hitting the meat of the story until about 7 episodes in. The animation is nice, but the powers are shown in a rather simplistic way. I think that this is to the series benefit as the focus of the series is the story telling and the characters. The powers are just some extra awesomeness sprinkled on top. This is one of the only space opera animes that i have watched. The only other one that i can think of would be banner of the starts. This anime has really gotten me thinking of watching Legend of the Galactic Heroes though, king of the space opera anime.
Overall a great anime that i truly enjoyed. Even though i can think of nothing really wrong with the series I think it will be out of my mind in about a week though.

Hi there Caboose19,
Toward the Terra TV is one of my favourite shows around, so I'm glad you got a chance to enjoy it. One thing you might want to consider is posting this as a 'user review' (click on 'reviews' tab in your profile) rather than as a blog entry, because it will then automatically show up in the anime's page as a user review. :)
