What's the hardest sci-fi anime?
>>
Rec thread?

Rocket Girls

Macross maybe? It only really comes out every decade and most don't really know the lore.
Ideon is Gundam but even weirder and leans hard into the 70's surrealism. I dunno, my taste is casual.

Nothing that relies on BullShitium can ever be hard scifi.

Anybody that mention a mecha show is wrong by the way.

Planetes is pretty damn solid.
The main liberties taken are the tandem mirror drive (still actually theoretically possible maybe) and letting niggers into space whatsoever.

Cowboy Bebop is genuinely up there. Sure it has FTL travel but it's very limited, and the show never leaves the solar system. None of the tech is particularly outlandish.

I think the hyperspace travel is actually sublight.

There's hard/soft sci-fi and high/low fantasy, but is there high and low sci-f or hard and soft fantasy?

The idol wank shit in Macross never appealed to me.

It's like the original anime had this cool idea of having a girl sing during a horrific war to emotionally shock the military brainwashed space giants and then every other series kept repeating that same exact thing over and over again.
What's that? Space demons that possess people and eat their energy? Guess we'll SING at them to beat them!

legend of the blue wolves

Its funny that in the original series the Zentradi get bored of the singing and other human culture because they recognize idol leisure is corrosive.

Rock hard sci-fi, even.

>>285270872
Then there was that time the AI Idol became evil or some shit and didn't they also beat her in an idol-off?
Then my friend showed me ANOTHER relatively newer macross with angler fish-esque Abehumans that get powered up by singing because some psychic shit with angler fish forehead tentacles or something.

It detracts from the concept of mechs that turn into jets and then have a half-form.
