| THIS IS A MANGA ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS ANYTHING BEYOND THIS CHAPTER. ---------------------------------------- Year 2080, finally they've arrive at Jupiter Hachimaki delivers his speech after arriving at Jupiter, and satisfied with what he has now *I learned that I could't stop loving people* P.S What a nice ending and still a lot to show but I think this is the end of Planetes, I hope to see part 2 or even one-shot manga that he returned and meet with his old crew and a bit of the future article |
Live well - Laugh often - and Love much |
| We are in space so don't stop loving it and the advantages it gives us!! |
| this final chapter made me contemplate becoming a christian again but then i had to stop myself and realize that this is a work of fiction. this is probably the most realistic manga i have ever read i just wish Yukimura made just one more chapter. |

| Wow. I just finished this. It's so different from the anime. The manga is much more about asking some of the big questions in life. What are we doing in this world? What do we do with our lives? And to it, Yukimura came up with what is perhaps a predictable yet maybe the only answer and that is to love each other. Yukimura is one great mangaka. I hope that he writes many more great stories like this one. |

| Can anyone tell my why it says there 27 chapters of this manga when the story ends here? |
 |
| A different ending. Though I can't say which version was better atm. |

| Really good |

| Volume 2 was such a mess man (omnibus) volume one was was great and i will always remember this series because of it, but like seriously, half of volume two couldve been completely removed, i bought it off amazon and caught a glimpse of a review saying "Starts strong, goes out with a whimper" and i was hoping that it just his personal opinion but he was right, still it was worth the read just because of how great volume one was. 8/10 |
 |
| Man, this blew me away from beginning to end. I can only hope we're competent enough to get there by 2080.

| I read the last chapter, thinking that there would be a next one, so the ending definitely caught me off guard. The ending was still touching when I had to go back to read it again lol My favorite part of this was the character development, especially with Hachimaki and Fee, especially considering that this manga was so short. Props to the book for diversity too (but I suppose it's a given, considering this is a manga about space). It's really nice how a Japanese author touched on discrimination in America, and it would've probably been around the ~2040s (considering fee is about forty at the end of the book?). I'm really glad that he actually acknowledges it and doesn't brush off discrimination as nonexistent after the civil rights era. I feel like they're going to get stuck inside the Von Braun for more than seven years lol |

| How cool would it have been the hear Louis Armstrong in an anime. Hachi and Ai both taught each other something. It’s been a really great read. I was annoyed by the fact the earliest chapters didn’t seem to be in order, that being said I really like the chapters where a character’s past contrasts with their present. I like that more characters get focus more than just once or not at all. So the journey to Jupiter chapters interlaced with what happens when Hachi's away (an actual space war and eccentric crewmember Baron). |
 Novels I have read/am reading pending approval: since November 10 2022 |
| There were a few things that didn't get wrapped up, but overall, this was a good series. Hopefully, the last few pages imply that they will be able to clean up the debris from the war. |
| Yes...yes! That's what I was searching for! This manga truly is a masterpiece, its depth, ideas, artwork, plot and so on. Loved it |
| This was a pretty good manga. One of my favourite aspects of this is how realistic it is. Everything from the characters to the science behind the manga is just realistic. Like this could be a documentary instead of a manga from the early 2000's. On the other hand, I didn't really care for all the characters. Fee and Yuri were awesome but I didn't really care for Hachimaki. But they were good characters and their journey was well done. 7/10 |
| Different ending? But this was good. I really loved the art style. 10/10 |
| Pretty good ending but I think it could have been handled better, especially with how little development the Von Braun voyage ended up getting. Aside from that, this manga is definitely one of my favourites. It has its misses on occasion, but the character development and story progression were really well done. I only wish there was more of it since there wasn't much room for Hachimaki to grow as a character, especially with his romantic interest in Tanabe. I started reading this manga after I started watching the anime, and I find it funny that all the major gripes I have with the anime aren't even present in the manga. Granted, there were some anime-only episodes I liked such as the one with El Tanika, but I can't comprehend why Sunrise decided to spend more money to make a worse adaptation. |
 |
| This definitely felt like it wanted to be more thought provoking and down to earth*ba dum tss* compared to the adaptation. Great read, but I prefer the melodramatic character drama that was the anime. The quirky cast there captured my heart. Although, I gotta love how the manga humanized Locksmith. |
One Piece episode 914 & 915 & 1027 were a mistake and 957 brought the salvation - FMmatron |
| Weak manga, there are some plotlines that felt really outside the realm of this work, it tries to convey to many genres at the same time, ending is the usual generic "Power of Love" stuff, actually Locksmith had a more interesting view of everything, I would had been better closing with his thoughts. Hachimaki speech was lame and very self-centered, some resolutions in certain plotlines were laughable, also Yukimura is extremely optimistic about the Space Development, we are already in 2022 and Mars looks still a bit farther than we thought, he definitely overrated development of humankind in the Space and that kills the realism of the manga in certain degree. I'm worried if some of the procedures here are applied in Vinland Saga, that would be detrimental for VS. Anyways, this manga is a below average 4/10. |

Your negative argument is that the author can't accurately predict the future? Lmao. What else? Blade runner and 2001 a Space Odyssey are also bad movies because there are no replicants and no moon bases yet? That was just one of my multiple negative arguments, specially considering that Planetes is sorted as Hyperrealism. Unlike 2001 or Blade Runner which never tried to be realistic in the first place, they both just show a future a that fits with the intentions of the author and the plot, they could be called bad movies for plenty of other reasons but lack of realism will be a mistake since that never were their intentions. |
