Planetes - Vol. 1

The year is 2075 and space has become polluted by all kinds of debris: abandoned satellites all the way along to bits and pieces lost by shuttles or space station. The one thing all the debris shares in common is that it proves a hazard to space navigation! To sort this situation, teams of garbage collectors are formed with the goal of cleaning up space for good, allowing people to travel in space safely - they are the "Debris Section".

Ai Tanabe, a young recruit full of dreams and misconceptions, arrives to join one of these garbage collecting teams, where almost nobody is considered strong! Upon arrival she'll meet all sorts of colourful people, with different goals, ambitions and motivations for working in the Debris Section. Contains four episodes.

  It's like Patlabor - in space!
  
  Take a super cool job that millions of kids would love to grow up to do and make it mundane. Then throw in a nerdish level of realism and a group of brilliantly... read more »
