I thought the opening dream sequence was pretty neat. I actually laughed out loud at the water-slide-going-everywhere ride to the fighter. I was noticing a similarity to Star Trek in which the Captain is
always in the away missions. But then I guess it would make for boring stories if the Captain always remained on the bridge. I wonder if Marika will come across a situation where the enemy is hiding on the far side of the planet, and use this dream as experience?
Oh Dark Queen Chiki-chan (yes, I know, don't call you that), when will you admit your true feelings? The only one you're hiding them from is yourself. Everyone else knows the truth.
Also, I wonder what Chiaki's phone conversation with her father was all about?
