I'm interested since I haven't heard of it before, but it's obviously good enough to get its own subforum.
Okay, I'll give it a go:

It is the future. Due to pollution of the Earth, mankind has moved to five giant space stations, one for each region of Earth.

There is a girl, Akiha, who is in high school. Then one day her older sister drops the bomb that she is engaged to someone, so she decides to run away. While running away in an escape pod, she suddenly gets run over by a space colony. The colony is run by a deranged, egotistical, condescending, megalomaniac AI named Leopard (voiced by Jun Fukuyama) who has a BFG for a ****.

With lots of innuendo, innovative mecha design, insane amounts of humour and pure awesome fight scenes, this is the beginning of The Girl Who Leapt Through Space! It's hella good, so watch it!

EDIT: Why do I always take so long to post...?
