I am currently interested in this anime and so far all I've heard are good reviews about this series.

Can anyone that has seen this confirm or deny this as a good anime to watch?

Ok... I've actually watched the series now and I am thoroughly impressed. This is easily one of the best series I have ever seen in my life. It's got an ending that practically brought me to tears.

Here's the breakdown. The story is based around a guy called "Hachimaki". He is working as a space debris collector (space garbage man) and the series is about his experiences after the arrival of a girl named "Tanabe" begins working at a company called "Technora" which deals with space development and the like. She is assigned to the "Debris Section" of Technora and becomes Hachimaki's co-worker.

The series pretty much revolve around their relationship mainly and how they affect each other's lives... however, there are several other characters who play important roles in the series as well. It's mainly a science-fiction drama with a dash of humor.

If interested... try looking into your resources for the ANBU release of this series as they are the only group to have subbed the whole series.

Seriously... this is an anime that's never leaving my HD.

I'm really stupid. I downloaded the first episode and deleted it because it didn't seem interesting. I'll just buy the DVDs later...

It may start off just a tad slow for some people but it really gets good towards the end.
