| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- Movie is about 90+ minutes and it was fun. We see our pirate Marika in charge of her crew. They get involved into some conflict in space as usual while Kanata becomes a key player in this movie. I feel bad for the kid because of his past though. The movie also highlights most of the other crews' roles although Marika gets most of the highlights. OST is great in this movie although some of the comedy is a bit weird. Still, I admire that Kanata kid and his spirit and resolve to fight. The ending was kinda underwhelming although I liked the theme songs they used. I also find out mecha to be kinda odd. |

| Really FUN movie. The comedy was spot on IMO although it's really a compressed mash of all the goodness of the franchise in a paltry 90 minutes! Really captured the spirit of the TV season. This movie was a really good follow-up on a recurring theme in the franchise, that the universe is an ocean. It seems the use of faster-than-light travel relies on high-speed "underwater" currents and while I feel the sci-fi took a lot of liberties, it was...cool. The mecha really resembled a deep-sea diving suit while the stuff that sails on the surface; ships were just...ships! Makes sense. That thing was not a weaponised mobile suit but a deep-sea working machine. Speaking of which, so much mecha-porn and details! The visuals are just amazing as usual! Satelight is really top-notch at the visuals which is no surprise as they also did the mecha-gasm Macross F. The holographic display visuals were just anally carefully constructed. Even sequences which had split second appearances, like in the OP where they displayed Marika's trajectory to the Bentenmaru...amazing. So many comedic screens that suit the show so much as well!  Another thing this show does so well is how the "battles" are choreographed. Some really out-of-the box sequence of events. Especially the role of the Odette II and Barbarossa...seriously laughed my ass off at all the creative novelty. I sometimes think Satelight is totally messing around having FUN while making this outrageous series. Speaking of which, tasteful fanservice. http://i.imgur.com/hCxRxEp.jpg (because I already used up the 1 image per post rule) |

| Not a bad movie although the robot at the end feel kinda out of place. I don't mind the fan service. Somehow I like the TV series a little more than the movie. |
| So the movie tries to salvage what may have been good about the hsow..and then...WHAM...April O'neil comes outta nowhere....lotta talking like in the show...buncha drone drone drone...and then....I look at the clock...and I want my time back. * shrugs* Way she goes I suppose =p |
Undim said: It is February now. Still nothing.formiga said: Subs never... WhyNot has to finish typesetting, then quality check and that's it. This is what I hate about being a fan of an unpopular show. That and shitty Sentai Filmworks dubs. |
 |
| Downloading it as I'm writing it. I probably won't watch it until this weekend. |
| What if the Hokey Pokey is what it is all about? |
| (Hyper) Space looks great, and it's nice to see the cast, but definitely, the film lacks a heart in direction and doesn't quite capture the thrill of the series. Definitely worth the watch, but for its run-time, it wasn't at all bodacious. |
| This movie….ugh. It maintained most of the aspects of the show that I remember, like lots of complicated artwork being spammed on screen every few seconds with data infographics, holograms, and detailed depictions of food. Also the dialogue was just as abusive as I remember, with lots of pseudo-scientific hobknobbery being blown into our faces with nearly every discussion that takes place. Oh no they did not left up about that. But lack of Chiaki, lack of Ririka, and wtf about Kanata. ::spoilers:: This kid was underdeveloped, the theme was half-cocked and frankly I didnt get what the big deal was about what they were going on about *choosing your own way* thing, he didnt do anything except take the future handed to him on a silver platter by pops and piloted Giant Robo into the center of the universe….talk about grandiose fantasies lol. Oh and the theme song was lame as crap. Insert song was kind of silly too but thankfully it lasted just a short while. This kind of felt like just a few episodes arc of Mouretsu. It didnt quite mesh as a great dramatic or intense film or anything. It just didnt come together, imo….dont know what they were trying to get at with this. Yea Kanata is a super hero and going on a journey now, and Marika is a pirate and a high school student. Go us! Lol Mouretsu I love you and hate you simultaneously. |
 |
| Ehhhh. Super impressed with the sound design and of course the production value is good. The story though is just not very desirable. I wasn't enthralled with the series so I guess it's reasonable that this movie didn't do it for me either. |
| Very enjoyable movie Still maintenance comedy & action from TV series One of my favorite thing from this movie is that mecha-like diving suit GREAT DEPTH XIII a.k.a ADVASEELE remain me about gundam from era G-reco and Turn A Gundam Also that new.... ups i mean merge ship BARBAROOSA ODETTE II lolololol Also i dont see problem with kanata become new MC I just see him story arc as same with serenity arc |
 |
| I'm pretty retarded, I watched without knowing about the tv series. It was still enjoyable though. |
| I was waiting a bit more, it was not so good, Kanata was kinda boring and there was few Chiaki scenes...cute Marika's virus... 6/10 |
 |
| Quite lovely movie I must say, it's been awhile that I've seen the series but it was quite lovely to catch this great atmosphere again! All in all a pretty lovely movie. |
 |
| the series needs moaaaaaaaaarrrrr along with the flower declaration T^T i need dis |
   |
| I like the movie. I agree, Kanata is lacking as a character, but in the end he's only a plot device. So it doesn't matter that much imo. Ririka is as laid-back and cool as ever. And there is finally a parrot, no pirate story without a parrot. The depiction of the computer virus was hilarious, cutest virus ever. Chiaki thinks, the enemy is stopping her, but it's because of her bad luck. And I laugh about people, who complain about extra fanservice. Are they really that bothered by this one short scene? |
| You're a louse, Roger Smith. - R. Dorothy Wayneright This is my fight! No Senpai, this is our fight! - Kojou Akatsuki & Yukina Himeragi  |
| Cute, fun and mostly enjoyable but... There were some serious lacking points compared to the show. Far too many things were skipped over and just like fast forwarded. This could have easily been a another 12 episode season with some decent filling out of the low points of the movie. Had potential but fell short of what the series had shown. |

Agreed, decent to watch, with better animation (bit different from the anime) due to being a movie, but I felt more invested in the TV series than this movie, I would had prefered the movie to focus on characters I already knew and enjoyed, rather than trying to bring a new character to the set, focusing almost solely on him and leaving the rest to a second plane... there was little Chiaki, and little of other pirates doing their things, besides at this point we want to know more about the Galatic Empire and Ironbeard. Hyperspace is a cool idea to be explored but into a single movie like Abyss of Hyperspace, felt too rushed, too much stuff thrown to the viewer without slowly fleshing out everything. Nice concept wasted on a short arc. 7.3 |

I had more fun watching this than I should have. First, dude wakes up to Marika's cleavage. Then he lays down to try to get a view up that loli's dress. I must comment that she was cuter with her hair in a ponytail. Touch the X as the bottom of hyperspace... what could possibly go wrong? We don't even consider that something could go wrong. A big energy wave crosses the entire GALAXY destroying it and it's a good thing. 6/10 (above average) I enjoyed it more than the series. |

| This was a one big farce and the opening song was so bad. They could have done better. I think they depended too much in the cute girls. |
If you are going to disagree with me, don't bother talking to me. I will seriously hurt you! |
| Movie was good, but really felt like a long filler. Nice to see the cast a bit older! Even Marika, being a 17 year old. She looks more mature!! I love her new outfit in red! Much better and more stylized than her default one. Even though it's a sequel and it does take place after Jenny's graduation. Was hoping to see more of the older characters as well as Quartz. This one of the very few Anime that actually takes place on Space and Adventure nowadays. Shame we really don't get these kind of Anime and more on the Mech side if we were to get one. I give it around 7-8. I hope I can discover more shows like this :) Another Anime I may check out is Sora wo Kakeru Shoujo https://myanimelist.net/anime/5307/Sora_wo_Kakeru_Shoujo Hope it's good as well! |
