I just started this and watched episode one, it was great. I enjoyed every bit of it so I'm definitely trying to catch up now. I heared the OVA wasn't that great but if you like the concept, check out the TV.

I actually got a thin-pac DVD for this series. 12 eps. for $36! A good bargain. THe voices interest me a lot. The story is in the Solomon Islands, and the seiyuu seem to show that with some very different nihon accents.

Loved the first episode. It was really funny, and it did not get boring one second.
This will be a series that I finish very quick!

The island locals cheering on for fireworks was funny haha! Already a promising first episode. This was recommended to me by a friend so hopefully this would be a nice watch :)

Only four comments?? That's less than one per year! (:

The show takes the overused trope of sending "cute girls" into space (or air or tanks or whatever) and adds some some subtle yet absurd touches (I want that spaceshuttle-booster lighter that shoots enough flame to burn your eyeballs off). As a whole, for myself, I think the episode works. I think it helps that the space station, evidently a private business, is something of an underdog itself. The secondary characters are distinct tropes, but nothing overboard like too many anime characters.

CGI's a little annoying, though. Otherwise, the animation isn't bad.
