| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- Cool episode, smart of them to going into a hibernation like state. Tanabe ;__; |
 |
| i'd been thinking that they should put themselves to sleep, but i wasn't sure that they had a way to do it. aero said: Tanabe ;__; |
| Whoa that was so intense, Tanabe doing that to Cheng-Shin. They were really smart indeed. I dont know how to feel about Hakim :/ |
 |
| Poor Tanabe. I like drama and all but I think it would be too cruel if Tanabe didn't get a happy ending. Next few episodes should be interesting. |
| A bit of junk science, but overall an interesting episode. |
 |
| I thought Hachi was singing <Stronger by K.West> during his test in the intro scene Well anyway good thing they made it |
Live well - Laugh often - and Love much |
| Great Teamwork by the Hachi-Hakim team....Damn! That was a drastic Forceful move by the always Polite Chenshin! For a sec i thought he would Rape Tanabe....This Anime has struck a chord in Brillianty portraying All the Emotions in a 100% Believable way:)Hats off to the director of this Anime. |

| Good thing i'm not planning to go on any long trips to space... |
| Wow that was just amazing! Lowering your body temperature to slow down your metabolism! Dangerous, but still! |
| Even when I was in crowd, I was always alone |
| Well, that's one way of whittling down 2400 applicants to just 18 was it? At this rate the crew morale is going to be rock bottom on the trip to Jupiter, assuming Locksmith can get all his teething problems with the engine sorted! |
 |
| Interesting reaction from Chengshin |
| Just how did they lower their body temperature to 28 C? |
 |
PrometheusZero said: Well, that's one way of whittling down 2400 applicants to just 18 was it? Yup! You know how everyone is like "It's impossible to be selected!" but that's not how I see it. There's 18 spots. Out of 2000, there are 18 people that are selected. It's like saying: "Why did it have to happen to me??" "Well it had to happen to someone. If it wasn't you, it would be someone else, and they would be wondering the same thing." Homolust said: Just how did they lower their body temperature to 28 C? Ice packs, I think? Anyways, great episode. |
| Great episode Loved that model kit :p but awesome way to preserve oxygen! Good that they made the second test! But damn Cheng-Shin is quite the gogetter trying to steal Tanabe... I wonder how that will evolve! |
 |
| Too bad I was already spoiled about this episode.. I was watching an episode in Space Brothers and someone spoiled about this smart idea.. tsk.. tsk.. anyway, nice idea! |
| . . . So now Hachi respects Hakim after he said he was prepared to kill someone to move forward. He has definitely gone down a dark path indeed. |
 |
| That was one crazy test.. I could not imagine myself passing it... anyways, great job on them lowering their body temperature to minimize their consumption of oxygen. that was really clever. |
 |
| Everyone is a fucking badass. Geniuses too. |
| Holy shit FINALLY THIS IS PLANETES Hachi's character is turning out to be much more favourable than before. Nice team they have (with the probable exception of the other fag). |
| Poor Tanabe T____T |
| Gib [img] plz |

| inochi ga kurikaesu naraba nandomo kimi no moto e ... ... if life can be repeated, i'll go to you many times over |
| dayummmm, and fuck you cheng shin |
| Nice episode, still don't know if he will really go on jupiter, i feel like i'd hate this anime if this how it end |
| I wanna know how did they lowered their temperature? I didn no lowering your temperature can minimize oxygen consumption. How many teams did passed? 3.5/5 |
 |
| Claire is joining the debris section in compensation for Hachimakis loss. To drop from control section to half section. Really has to nab on your ego. In the meantime Hachimaki is getting used to his new team. They will be travelling to Jupiter together. |

| wtf...Cheng-Shin going crazy all of a sudden. why does this show ruin decent characters? :'( well there goes any hope (which didn't exist in the first place) of Ai x Cheng-Shin. really starting to hate Hachi now, feel really bad for Ai and about that oxygen test thing, they would have enough oxygen if people took turns holding their breaths. a bit tiring but it would work. killing one of your teammates? really? i'd rather let the whole team die than survive for such an inhumane reason. getting really frustrated with this show hooray! Hakim and Hachi make a really good duo of psychopaths |

| This episode... Like a tournament arc in a battle shounen, except even less fun. The only thing the team did during the whole episode that's worth any mention was at the very end (the body temperature gambit), and even that was kind of a head scratcher. If these idiots were at each other's throats after only ten days, and despite that, actually passed the exam, the Von Braun is even more doomed than I first thought. The other thing that bugged me was that over at the Debris section, people just can't shut up about Hachimaki. He's not there, but everything is still all about him. What even is Cheng-Shin doing? He's just as much of a petulant child as Hachimaki at this point, with some bonus creep points. And Tanabe goes back to her meddling ways. Elfster said: Actually, decreasing air temperature increases oxygen consumption. And anyway... decreasing body temperature of healthy, fully clothed person just by dropping air temperature would take a long time. And anyway, they had no energy! How did they even manage to cool air?? Oh, wait. They had ice packs too. Handy. Well, that probably could cool a dead person to 28C in 3 hours. Alive? No way. Good points. And at 28°C, their skin should have been blue and puffy. Although, according to Wikipedia, in the case of severe hypothermia (core temperature of 28-20°C), "heart rate, respiratory rate, and blood pressure all decrease," so maybe there was a point in intentionally inducing hypothermia, it just should have been near impossible to achieve with the tools available. |

| The first thing I thought of when the oxygen was low was for them to go to sleep. I'm surprised they didn't think to do that first. |
 |
| So Claire was demoted to the Debris Section, and things are awkward between her and Tanabe. I really disliked how they made Cheng-Shin go crazy out of nowhere, forcibly kissing Tanabe like that. He is the best man so if he were just patient things might have worked out. Even now Hachimaki is only thinking about himself, and he is also a bit enamoured of Hakim; but these two, even with the other new two, and even though the test was cool, can't compare to the charisma of the other characters we've spent time with so far, so I was still more interested in the Debris Section part of the episode. |
 |
| Now all characters in the intro have appeared lol. This is how difficult the tests are, only the best of the best can survive Jupiter. |
 Novels I have read/am reading pending approval: since November 10 2022 |
| Took way too damn long for this show to get good. Lets hope the last 6 are just as good as this one. |
| Omg what did he tried with Tanabe... Cheng-Shin is a rapist. |
 |
| With these tests I guess they're aiming for a crew of psychopaths and murderers. I dislike Hachimaki more with each episode. |

| This was a decent episode but these tests just feel like B-tec versions of what I've seen from Space Brothers not gonna lie, since those tests felt way more detailed and paced a lot better too, although those tests are just to become a JAXA astronaut, this is for people who immediately want to get to Jupiter via the Von Braun. The pod isolation test here felt too quick but at least the solution to survive the test by reducing everyone's body temperatures to reduce oxygen consumption was interesting. Tanabe's been locked out essentially by Hachimaki and she's been worried about him for a long time now, even choosing to work more and more to distract herself from being worried even more. Cheng-Shin was jealous of Hachimaki qualifying that test and seeing him with a girlfriend that Cheng-Shin liked before, so much that he even laid one on Tanabe, even though she bit his lip and looked at him with absolute disgust afterwards. Hope she somehow does okay but that relationship with her and Hachimaki looks incredibly rocky now, and could crumble at this rate. |
| man, i really feel bad for tanabe that hibernation was a cool idea tho, i hoped the whole time they would come up with something that could save them all ^^ |
i wish i was a cloud |
| Lmao @ at the welcome. That's so typical for the Debris Section. Never change. But Claire joining them and Cheng-Shin having a fall out were crazy surprises. Hibernation didn't even come remotely close. |
One Piece episode 914 & 915 & 1027 were a mistake and 957 brought the salvation - FMmatron |
| when claire joined the debris section i was :O too lol another resemblance for space brothers with this test lol though i feel space brothers did this kind of test better, if the anime would have more time for this test it probably would be better. hachi placing trust to hakim who just said he would kill, that was interesting. what the hell sheng-chi thinking? way to go tanabe! |
| Cheng-Shin sexually harassing Tanabe, ew! Wtf is wrong with him?! He should stay away from her, what a disgusting man. |

That was INTENSE.
Hakim is now officially my favorite character of this series. |
 |
| I dont think Hakim and Hoshino is similar it obviously Hoshino thinks they are pretty similar but in reactions of Hakim it pretty obvious there is something else. But Im not sure what this test proofs. This anime doesn’t have best knowledge when its came to mechanics and space and I did ignore it mostly but for this time I really wanted to know more about Jupiter and their plan. Jupiter is a gas titan and one of the most dangerous planets in our Solar system its not the same with going to Moon,Mars,Venus etc. Their mission is called Jupiter Exploration Mission. So they gonna Explore the Jupiter. But how? Its the biggest planet but have the shortest day which if I remember correctly is just 10 hours. Its a gas giant and even if its has a surface its very very small. If I remember correctly it has some kind of rings even tho they are pretty small. How they plan to get through of themThe storms inside of Jupiter is nothing to compare to Earth's one etc. I just want to know more about the mission. What is the main point of this ( which is resource and research yes but more information) I just think its a very interesting topic but its done very poorly |
