Does /a/ even remember this anime? I know it's had a banner on this website since 2003 or 2004 but I've never seen it discussed ever in my 16 years on this site. No memes, no screencaps, no namedrops. Seems like one of those forgotten relics that if it weren't for that banner I wouldn't have even watched it or knew of its existence.
>>283033861No fucking way.Just got the banner when I made the thread.What are the odds?
>>283033861I remember I checked some years ago if it had fanarts and most of it was lesbian futaAnyways, I never watched the anime and I probably won't ever
>>283033861It was only semi-popular at the time because the faces looked azumanga daioh-ish but people moved on almost instantly
>>283033861I still have some of the images I saved back then for it, somewhere.
>>283033861The only things I remember about this show are that Carlos-looking midget, his green girlfriend and that rock candy. People used to talk about it favorably back then, a solid "pretty good", but I couldn't tell you what the plot was about other than there was a lot of vague relationship drama and fucking around in simulators.
>>283034510Just from memory, I think they were training because of huge wave of meteors was approaching Earth and they had to prepare to shoot them all down. Up until that point, it was basically tons of relationship drama interspersed with training. It happens and they succeed in repelling the wave. At the end, some aliens show up, and one of the characters is revealed to be part-alien, and then there's a cliffhanger plots that they planned to explain in another season that never happened.
>>283033861Watched it a couple of years back. It was a pretty solid sci-fi show, but sadly underappreciated. A lot of early 2000's stuff fell between the cracks.
>>283034579It wasn't meteors, it was some other effect they had to throw the space stations at during the attempt to stop it. The alien disguised as human had to help with providing some targeting or other information to give them a chance, breaking some rules about staying hidden and not helping.

>>283034910This. Never watched it back then but know it exists because anons posted it every time we had a best OP/EDs thread.
>>283034579>>283034858>Distant solar eventI feel like the fear of existential threat of a universal event happening that could have wiped out humanity without a second thought is the best part. The universe is so big that an acting up star light years away can destroy your small spot in another solar system. Basically the Foundations act like a defense line. Stellvia was one of many good space fantasy anime of the early 2000's. It also got me into Angela's music too. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XtV5cDTOSPs
