I was surprised to find that there was no thread about this upcoming series. It's one I personally am looking forward to very much. The staff list is amazing. The character designs have a very familiar feel for anyone who has been catching some of the classics from the 80s and very early 90s. A good sci-fi/space opera anime hasn't come along in a while. Definitely can't wait to see how the series plays out.
