The day-to-day lives of space janitors against a believable hard sci-fi backdrop; the social and political implications of space travel as a part of daily life.

Main Description

In the year 2075, mankind has reached a point where journeying between Earth, the moon and the space stations is part of daily life. However, the progression of technology in space has also resulted in the problem of the space debris, which can cause excessive and even catastrophic damage to spacecrafts and equipment. This is the story of Technora's Debris Collecting section, its EVA worker, Hachirota "Hachimaki" Hoshino, and the newcomer to the group, Ai Tanabe.

Personal Opinions

araeris

There aren't many anime shows that try for realistic representation of space ships, colonies, etc. Among those few, Planetes executes the realism the best, but it still isn't the main reason for watching the show. Character development and story is excellent. It manages to work across most of the cast and make you actually care about them. The main theme of personal motivation is explored very well. It knows when to use comedy and when to use drama. Excellent show.
