| I enjoyed this anime quite alot. The animation was very very good throughout. |
| Not too bad for mindless entertainment. So much more could have been done with this final episode, though. Sent with Mal Updater |
 |
| In the end I gave it a 7 because Moco survived--although it was unclear just what happened to Amara (the "he left" comment just didn't make sense--I guess she'll have to go looking for him since it has been clear for some time that she's developed a lot of human feelings for him). While it's all nice and good that Hana and Daichi were saved by their Livelaster (I guess--though it's pretty damn confusing), we got zero development on Akari and Teppai. As I said the only reason this got a 7 is because I can see Moco serving food out of a truck, standing beside her beloved Amara, and feeling the wind in her face... |

It needs it. thelastgogeta said: I'm aware of the game. But I dunno if it will be a continuation or an alternate setting altogether. Also the fact it is a visual game coming to Japan for a console that I do not own, means I won't enjoy ANY of its material. So yeah..........I want a Post ending OVA '-'Captain Earth: Mind Labyrinth will release on February 26th 2015, it is a PlayStation Vita visual novel but should provide some answers along with original scenarios: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IZC0OdRWR1A Rigermortis said: I think people wanted a bit too much of Chaika and other series to appriecite this one properly, just saying. Well at least 2nd Chaika is coming soon, so that may appease some people here.This is honestly the worst anime I have ever seen. I don't think I have ever seen so much wasted potential used with so many good resources. After recently watching Eureka Seven and Noragami I was hoping for great things from this series. But I guess this goes to show you to stop hyping things up before they are released. We are currently looking up at the bottom of the barrel for bones, I really hope they can recover from this from what I've seen they took a really big hit from this shows failure and it kinda worries me cause I still really like other stuff I've seen from them. But long story short this was humongous disappointment and glad that its finally over. Overall 3/10 mayukachan said: Why not? All people have different things to value. I for instance did not mind much of the story because I was fine with the animation, OST, the battles to an extent and most of it all the AMAZING Voice Cast (which was what really made me want to watch this in the first place).You appreciate everything. Good on you! It is all about what we percieve buddy. |

| This series didn't deliver in any aspect for me. Being a huge mecha fan, I'm even mostly disappointed at how boring the fights were for a 2014 series, even the final fight was weak as hell. At least I could excuse a mecha series for having a bad/poor plot and, or characters, if it has some satisfying fight scenes like i.e. Majestic Prince. I'll spare listing every complaint I have about this series, this post would just turn out into a too much of a tl;dr, and others have already listed enough reasons why this series is just so damn right poor. But be glad CE, I hardly ever rate under 5, so I'll give you at least a 5 for poor effort. |
| Amara should be alive, only his ego block was destroyed. Heck, they might even be able to reconstruct them - they talked about that before. Unless the require someone with an ego block to do it. Too bad we didn't get any real info on the Livlasters. How they ended up on Earth in the first place, their real motives etc. And why they didn't simply put up a shield (Hana should be able to do so) or entangle-link out of there (the captain/the livlasters are able to)..and why Teppei didn't follow immediately (after getting Akari ofc., but that shouldn't take long). Overall it was okay. The ending was more or less as expected, so yeah, it could have been done better, especially the first half of the series, but it was enjoyable nonetheless. |

It is all about what we percieve buddy. I was being serious, not sarcastic. I wish I could enjoy every show and give it a 10/10 but I'm too negative haha Animation and OST were good for sure. Voice acting wasn't particularly spectacular and I'm only pointing this out because I care about seiyuu casting a lot. :P |
NwAurion said: From what I understand to regenerate the Ego Blocks they need Siren AND The Cocoon (the subs do not mention this but when Amara explains this he does mention the Cocoon). Since the Siren Kiltgang is done for, not to say about The Cocoon I highly doubt any Ego Block can be regenerated. Though the key component is desire so I wouldn't know.Amara should be alive, only his ego block was destroyed. Heck, they might even be able to reconstruct them - they talked about that before.

Overall it was okay. The ending was more or less as expected, so yeah, it could have been done better, especially the first half of the series, but it was enjoyable nonetheless. The Amara x Moco thing at the end was absolutely lovely to see (a lot more considering the seiyu ARE married irl). Amara is definitely alive, but he must be quite confused about all the events, I mean he was the most supremacist of the group, yet he chose to act on his human memories, so he must have quite the internal turmoil. This series really needs an OVA D: mayukachan said: Oh, I see. Well I do not see that often (I doubt I'm the only one here '-').I was being serious, not sarcastic.

Dang it!!!! |

BGMaxie said: I'm gonna miss listening to Maaya Sakamoto and Kenichi Suzumura together. Dang it!!!! Yeah, my IRL OTP xD Too bad they weren't very important in this show. |
| I wouldn't go telling people you gotta see this, but I enjoyed it. Sure the plot was a mess, and there was a lot of unnecessary garbage in there but I tend to think most mecha anime are ridiculous like that. In the end a very typical kids save the world via love and friendship, bad guys realize their errors, happy ending, etc... I mean it gave you what you expected and ended normally. No weird plot twists, betrayals, or tying to be edgy. Just blow up the bad guy, kiss the girl, and go home. |
| Who knew, all this time, Puck wanted to be trapped in a girl's body? ...I may have been one of the few to actually enjoy this show. Eureka Seven meets Star Driver. Then again, I'm also one of the few that enjoyed Star Driver. Ending was clearly rushed, as I'm sure we were all expecting. Would have been nice to get some kind of epilogue too. There was barely any time left to do anything, though. Oh, well. Still enjoyed it overall. See ya, Captain. Also, never forget: belly button forte. |

| I dont know why some of you guys got to be such jerks though. But, scrolling down each comment and it seems everybody was giving it a rating of 4's and 5's... However, in my opinion it should be around 7 to 8 out of a scale of 10, since the anime excelled on something keeping me entertained lol I looked forward to the "story" each week and I feel happy that it ended on a good note. The characters are good, since I saw at least a little development on each character. The romance was a little slow, but towards the ending it just blew me away since Hana and the captain are now officially a couple. The music is great, the ending ost from the second half is very good. So again, this concludes just a summary of my review with a score of a 7.5 out of 10. Dont reply to this since I dont answer back lol have a great day!!!! |
| 7/10 beginning was good until halfway through the story became fucked up and a huge trainwreck. Visually/ Music was top notch 10/10. Bones would rake in so much money with these animation if they had a decent writer and a decent production team that checks the story. Anyways nice finale. Lots of action and twists. |

| im glad Hana survived thats all that matters lol |
| Yeah it really was a mediocre anime overall. At least it killed time. |
| Well, it is an okay ending, but it felt like it could have gone better. My most complain about this is about how slow pace it is, the character development, and the execution was done poorly. The villains were pretty much annoying throughout the run and the last 3 episode or so episodes did not exceed my expectations. Well I'm only compliment on the Art style. Bones can't do a properly good Mecha show tbh. 6/10. |
| Are they dead or did they survive? I am very confused because at the end it said. "When I opened the door called truth, my childhood ended. It was a summer I could never forget." I am assuming they died because of the explosion + Hana unable to live if the Blume was destroyed. I think Hana and Daichi became part of the earth or became the livelaster because when the Blume exploded some blue lights have fallen through the earth and at the end Dachi saying " It's such a pretty galaxy... I love the view of space from this planet most of all." Hana saying "me too." Or That livelaster girl saved both of them. |

| Ordinary ending but at least that one piece of Sh*t die !! |
AlexTheRiot said: Mormegil said: Who knew, all this time, Puck wanted to be trapped in a girl's body? Puck does not lie. Oh but he does. Tsun-Tsun Puck was after Daichii's er.. "Livelaster"... the entire time. If you know what I mean ;) Is it just me or did Daichii's kiss with Puck overshadow even his kiss with the real Hana at the end? I swear there should be some homo innuendos here somewhere. In the end nothing was really explained properly. Hana and Daichii's survival was neither confirmed nor denied. They could be two spirit particles floating on in space watching the stars in the universe light up for all we know. The expression on Akari's mother's face at the end was very deceptive and inconclusive (she was crying, but for sure not in joy). Nor was the blue-haired girl at the beginning that led Daichii to Hana in episode 1 (and also showed up behind them in the last kiss) ever explained properly. For all we know, she is the bio-form of Daichii's Livelaster (I shudder to think of the implications of that since Daichii has been using that thing all the time, but I digress). The only thing we know for sure is that Akari and Teppei survived, and the Earth was saved. The Planetary gears had their ego-blocks destroyed and now are just your average human beings with memories of being planetary gears. Amarok definitely has feelings for Mocco, but is angry with the rest of the gears that they had to sacrifice their immortality to destroy Puck, the tool they were suppose to use to absorb the Earth, but ended up being used by. Overall, this show left me with a seriously unsatisfied feeling. I doubt anything other than confirmation from the director/author of this show about what exactly happened in the end will quell this feeling of dissatisfaction. In ghetto terms: Seriously, what da fuk happened there, Brah? |
HESTIA   APPROVES |
| Not sure how did I manage to finish this until the end, was quite amazed with myself ... Oh well, 4/10 and move on. |
| Oh. Hana became badass when Puck entered to her. So dark. Ah finally, this show is over. Its potential got wasted because of its mediocrity. I want to know if the Kiltgang is still PG or not because their Ego Blocks got destroyed. And how the heck Pitz is with the two at the end. The kissing scenes are good tho. No proper epilogue. |
| The world shall know the truth soon. |
SweetCoconut said: And how the heck Pitz is with the two at the end. on other forums they say that the blue haired little girl that gave livlaster to Daichi is pitz because they have thesame sky blue color  |

| The scene where he said "I'm Captain Earth" and the music started, I legitimately got a chill in my body. 5/5 |
 |
| ell that was kinda boring |
 |
| I actually liked this anime. sure it wasn't perfect, but it looked pretty and I had fun watching it:) the ending was a bit disappointing though....BUT I was really happy when I heared that gorgeous first opening again. I agree that this anime could have been better 7/10 |

Of course you want a post ending OVA, but they always go for what they can afford or cash in on comfortably first. + Drama CDs (the limited edition game comes with four of em). + Games if approached by a publisher. + Movie which reuses animation from the show. + OVA. + Another TV serialisation. OVAs are pretty low on my made up list as you can see. Wouldn't OVA come first before Movie? After all Movies take A LOT more effort and resources than an OVA. |

thelastgogeta said: Pardon me, but I still do not get how that implies that an OVA would be harder to do than a movie.My list is far from perfect, but I have yet to see or hear of an OVA which literally rips animation from the source material, so that's the order I'm sticking with for now. |

| A big step better than Eureka Seven AO, the chemistry between characters was very good and less political chaos. I liked that this show put some focus on the so called villains and gave them meaningful screen time. The couples were cute, but there should have been more time for that actually. The 25 episodes were a bit short for everything in the end, but overall it was a good, solid anime with great characters. I loved it and I'm somehow sad it's over now. Here it got some really bad feedback, does someone know how the Japanese audience felt about the show? |

| Series started off great then halfway through I stopped caring pretty much. 6/10 I like evil Hana better dang she was hot |
"What has two arms, two legs, and is alive? Not your favorite character lol! xD" |
RodrigoL said: did they died???????????? Daichi along with Hana jump or use entangle link to go to earth so both of them survived only mystery left is what is Pitz, is that thing the livlaster or the blue girl that gave livlaster to Daichi or possibly even given livlasters to all of them |
-Resident- said: Nyanpasuu said: I may have simply missed something when watching, but what was with that person behind Daichi and Hana in the end? Could someone explain to me who that was again? I know we saw them somewhere else in the series. That was Daichi's Livlaster in human form. If I didn't read this online, I would not have figured this out myself without watching the series again. Now that you've mentioned it, I recall seeing that girl when he first got his Livlaster, so it makes sense. |
| So even in the end Akari doesn't gain a Livraster, and Flare Engine (big form) ends up being used in ONLY ONE FIGHT oO Kinda liked the kiltgangs actions and the fact that Earth Engine couldn't resist it's own power output. I like not-so-happy endings more than this normal everybody-happy, but what really make me mad was the way Akari was useless in this last fight, not even as a powerup plot device for Teppei. >.< I think they REALLY needed a final Amara-Moko scene u.u |
SweetCoconut said: j0x said: on other forums they say that the blue haired little girl that gave livlaster to Daichi is pitz because they have thesame sky blue color And eyes? WHAT HAVE YOU DONE BONES. But what of Lappa (pink Pits)? Hana's Livraster ? |
| Watching 3 last episodes in one sitting reminds me of Star Driver and in the end, nothing special. Still an awesome series though. |
Dojourei said: The scene where he said "I'm Captain Earth" and the music started, I legitimately got a chill in my body. Best part in the episode. Believer's High is such a great song. That and Kayano Ai's evil voice was cool, I love her voice acting in this episode. But the last episode overall was...yeah, cheesy. Wasn't too surprised that for some reason the kiltgangs became on the good side, to feel the wind I guess. Puck wasn't really a great antagonist either. At least the very last scene looked beautiful, the part where Daichi has Hana in the princess hold and then the starry sky in the background. Marzan said: And so it ends. Nostalgia mecha designs, pretty art, animation and character design cannot overcome a weak story and generic characters. It's a shame because it really looks pretty. Bones. You're a good studio, You can make some gorgeous looking colorful stuff. But for the love of God stop releasing mecha series until you have a good, tight script that has some interesting characters, and that doesn't have to rely on mumbo/jumbo to keep the story going. Agreed, such a waste of pretty visuals. After hearing about Star Driver and now this, I'm not sure if I want to watch another Bones mecha anime again. |
