If you are fan of the original 1974 series then you'll be blown away by the improvements of the story quality and the characters in this reboot. As a space opera, its no surprise that the series is filled with an abundance of gorgeous scores, that both include themes from the original series, and new ones that only further enhance the experience.
Now I know the word 'reboot" can make people a bit nervous. Often times we worry that it could never live up to the original. I mean, why fix what isn't necessarily broken right? But there's no need to worry here. This
...
takes the classic story and brings it to a new audience while also creating a experience that feels new for those who think they already know the story.
With improvements to the story and characters you can of course expect the visuals to be improved as well. The production value of the series was extremally high and it shows. The animation is clean and the backgrounds are stunning to look at, weather it be the complex ship interiors or the vast star systems the anime takes you through. While the 74 series was good, one cannot deny that the animation is quite dated. This series does a fantastic job of making the visuals something you won't soon forget.
The series is 26 episodes, so not a very long anime by any means, but story takes place over year and by the end you really feel like you went on a voyage across the galaxy with these characters, even if you manage to binge watch it in one day.
Anyone who loves sci fi adventure anime with some romantic sub plots will have a fantastic time with this series. There's no need to have even heard of the original to enjoy this series. it is more then capable of standing on its on, and in my opinion, stands even taller then the original.
