I started watching it because it was produced by Netflix. I thought it will have a different flavor, considering I’ve been watching Mobile Suit Gundam on the sides. I loved the animation but it has a generic space anime plot; a dystopian world trying to protect itself from an existential threat to humans and suddenly a savior comes along. The origin of Gauna, space beasts that Sidonia is protecting itself with is still in the mist. I wish they had explored the Gauna more.
I like the anime that is why I am giving it a “good” rating but it is nothing out of the ordinary. Production value is high but the story is cliche.
