Very good first episode. The central Drama between Scientists and Military about how to deal with a polluted uninhabitable planet has an even bigger timeliness, than when the show came out! Also, sadly not suprising that the military ended up staging a coup d'etat and instead of trying to fix their planet they plan to conquer a new one for themselves. I would not be suprised if something like this could happen in a few hundred or thousand years!

Marine is your typical 70s/80s hot-blooded MC, but by far the most interesting Character is Roza Aphrodia as the Antagonist. She's both cool-headed, smart and has no problem to murder the emperor without hesitation, but is also very emotional about the loss of her Brother and avenging his death. I hope she's not kiled of early in the anime, because the dynamic between her and Marine is very intriguing. 

Anmiation/art-vise the episode looks fine for it's age, maybe even more like a 70s anime than an 80s one, but still ok. The Drama with the death of Marine's Father an Roza's Brother was already sky high in this first episode, but I thought it was handled quite well actually. I especially liked how shócked Marine was after killing someone for the first time. Very realistic.

All in all one of the more intriguing pilote episodes for an old-school mecha I've seen. I hope they can keep that level up!
