Planetes

Rating: 8

Very good series exploring humanity in space.

The first half is very good. In the last story arc, some directing decisions were bad. But it’s still a decent conclusion, and adding more story.

Themes:

• Humanity in space, year 2075
• Social differences and power divide in countries
• Interpersonal and social distance increase
• Relationships and personal struggles
• Side effects and dangers of space exploration - human health and physical waste
