Synopsis:
From Production IG (Psycho Pass, Blood The Last Vampire, Ghost in the Shell) and the Creator of Madoka Magica and Fate/Zero comes an action-packed sci-fi adventure like you've never seen before. While fighting an intense inter-galactic war, a mecha pilot was accidentally warped into a space-time neither he nor the computer of his mecha could recognize. After waking up from a long-time hibernation, he found himself trapped on a planet, with human residents talking in an unknown form of language, using inferior technologies, and -- most shocking to him -- naturally breathable air..
We like it because:
This series is built on a high concept that touches on real-world topics. With top notch space battles, an amazing soundtrack and stunning visuals, Gargantia On The Verdurous Planet really is a show that everyone can enjoy. Ledo, the show's main protagonist, is one of our favourite TV characters in a very long time and his adjusting to life on Earth, as well as learning what a barbecue is, is compelling viewing - seeing someone brought up in the military not used to this concept is a sight to behold!
