Short summary

A group of teenagers from a deep space colony become lost when their shuttle is sucked into a gravity storm, and end up on a habitable, but, for some reason, uninhabited planet. Now it's up to them to survive, to overcome their differences and character flaws, to make strange new friends, to face unexpected enemies, to discover the planet's ancient secrets, but, most importantly, to find a way home.

    I don't consider myself an emotional person, but this series often kept me at the edge of my seat, especially at the finale. Probably the best part is that you don't know what the ending will be, until it happens - you can make guesses, but you can't be sure whether it's going to be a "happy end", or a "heroic death" end, or even something different altogether. I won't say which one it turned out to be, except noting that it was a perfect fit for the series, and that's something you don't see too often, unfortunately. The character development is probably the best I've ever seen. Every single character gets thoroughly developed, but almost no one is static - they all change significantly throughout the series, evolve under the new, unusual conditions (except maybe Luna, but she's strong enough already). This what makes this show so realistic, despite it being a cartoon, a science-fiction, and a fantasy all in one. And that's a major achievement.

    One should note, though, that at first it may not look too promising - the story starts to develop slowly and not very eventfully for about a dozen episodes. But after a while the real adventures begin and so do the mysteries. Actually, the first hints that the series has much more to offer than just a group of lost kids, do appear in the earliest episodes. And then the real fun starts. The animation is as good as you might expect from such a series. Even those silly, irritating anime faces (with apple-sized sweat drops, crosses for eyes, etc.) all but disappear by the middle of the series, making it ever more realistic (and enjoyable). My only complaint is that at the ending of each episode they provide a short, but all-inclusive summary of the following episode. Apparently, the makers of the series are unfamiliar with the term "spoiler". I recommend switching to a different channel the moment this summary starts. Besides that, really can't think of anything bad to say, so it's a solid 10.

    And in my case the series has also contributed to my Japanese, because I watched it with subtitles. Entertaining and educational at the same time - how about that?

    Seriously guys... When i saw the art style of the anime I was like "meh", But never judge a book by it's cover!!!

    The Story is so good and well thought!!! and the characters developed very well...there are like only a handful of anime that have that.. nowadays many anime have boobs and those "Moe' and fan service things going on. but this one is different. If you watch the anime..you just want to watch more of it. it has many cliffhangers and dilemmas. which makes it more exciting.. and the story is something thats so fresh... its about don't lose hope, never give up! I really recommend this anime.
