In the far future, humanity has left behind an environmentally destroyed Terra and began colonization in order to reproduce their home. Humanity, now ruled by a super computer that controls the birth of children, sees the emergence of a new race called the "Mu". The Mu, now hidden from the rest of humanity, have one dream, to return home, to Terra...

Gonna download the trailers. Thanks mate.

Change the link Bud, you're linking to the old series. http://anidb.info/perl-bin/animedb.pl?show=anime&aid=5039

[Munsu]

Fixed. Yeah this seems to be a prequel to that movie from the 80's. Now im intrigued to hunt down that movie and see what was it about.

[Munsu]

First episode by AE-Saizen:

[masamuneehs]

watched tonight. Fairly standard, "Boy in a distopian future has some renegade gift and the system tries to kill him but he gets support of others like him" probably going to be about him saving the world... A whole bunch of blondes in this show... Looks like there may be some slashable relationships here between the main character and Soldier.

Strangely set in a very normal looking world, all of episode one felt very normal up until the last five minutes. None of the characters stand out to me, animation is mediocre, music is mediocre. This story feels like it's been done a million times already. However, the last five minutes were intriguing enough to make me want to wait until at least the next episode before deciding to drop this series or not...

[AsclepiusZ]

I didnt mind the first ep. They left it hanging at a key spot in the story as expected so ill wait for next ep before making a final thought.

[masamuneehs]

Episode 2 & 3 are out!

A-E and Saizen - Toward the Terra - Episode 2 (http://a.scarywater.net/saizen/%5BA-E_%26_Saizen%5D_Toward_the_Terra_02_%5B0B45A9A0%5D .mkv.torrent)
A-E and Saizen - Toward the Terra - Episode 3 (http://a.scarywater.net/saizen/%5BA-E_%26_Saizen%5D_Toward_the_Terra_03_%5B4F15D73D%5D .mkv.torrent)

I'm hoping these are good, as episode one ended well, but was quite weak otherwise. I've also become quite a bit less romanced with my other dystopia anime, so here's to hoping this series turns out well.

[AsclepiusZ]

Just finished ep2. Found it interesting enough. Still need a few more eps to see how good its going to be. ep3 is downloading currently.

EDIT: Just finished ep3. Awesome ending on it. Cant wait for ep4.

[Munsu]

I don't know, I'm enjoying the series so far. Seems a bit emo so far, but I think it'll get better as the story progresses.

I wonder what else goes on during the adulthood exam... they have to do more than erasing memories, probably some brainwashing on how Mu are evil. Can't wait till Jomy's friend undergo the adulthood exam, I think they said they'd do it soon. We'll probably see Jomy forced to kill his friends or something.

Episode 4:
http://a.scarywater.net/saizen/%5BA-E_%26_Saizen%5D_Toward_the_Terra_04_%5BBD667795%5D .mkv.torrent

I thought it was a nice episode, I think it'll be the last introductory episode...

Episode 6 (http://a.scarywater.net/saizen/%5BA-E_%26_Saizen%5D_Toward_the_Terra_06_%5B481ED4A1%5D .mkv.torrent)
New Characters.

[Munsu]

Any of you keeping up with the series? I just watched up to episode 13, and it's been good so far. The show reminds me a bit of Battlestar Galactica, with the search for Earth (Terra) and all.

I've been liking the time jumps too, it's interesting to see how the characters have developed after a few years. It's been missing a bit of action, but it seems like that's about to change.

[Death13a]

I am keeping up with releases and really like the series. It interesting will they really go to Earth or stay at Nezka as most of crew wants to stay.

[Munsu]

I really doubt they'll stay there, mainly because the Humans either are already aware of them being there or they will be soon enough and send an all-out attack, so they'll be force to move. They'll probably lose a lot of people in that fight.

[Yukimura]

Keith Anyan is such an dick, but it looks like next ep he might have a chance to soften a little. It's either that or he'll mess up Physis pretty bad.

[Yukimura]

If anyone stil watches, it was announced that Toward the Terra was licensed by Bandai and AE & Saizen have dropped it. I don't think anyone else will be picking it up ever so oh well.

[Munsu]

Oh man, that blows... fuck, got nothing else to say.

[Arcn3ss]

For fuck sakes, you got 8 million groups subbing 8 million shitty series, and when a decent show comes along with no loli, fanservice, harem shit etc only one group picks it up. Now that group has dropped it. Bah... /me rant over.

[YaGaMi]

Guys according to AniDB, Terra-Subs were also releasing it and may still continue to do so even though their last release was Ep 6 roughly a month ago.

[Munsu]

Groups that also sub it in French always makes me question their quality... since what they usually have is a Japanese to French translator then someone who translates the French to English. Hopefully I'm wrong.

[Board of Command]

Well...this really sucks balls.

[shinta|hikari]

This show is one of the really interesting ones (due to a serious plot) last season. I hope people manage to get subbed versions of this show, even if its just to get a discussion on this thread going.

[Nachtvogel]

Good news. Makoto picked it up.

Thank goodness for Makoto. This show really needed to be subbed.

[Nachtvogel]

It is getting better and better. Just great.
Here is the Link for Ep 18. (Yukimura linked Ep 17, not 18)

Shame that no one's talking about this series. This episode is filled some nice revelations and closure. Keith's behavior bewildered me this episode, lemme know what you guys think.

[Death13a]

This is a great show. Shin really does act like leader. It interesting how Nazka death squad projects the image of MU.

[Yukimura]

I get more into this story every episode, and it just keeps on delivering. Now I'm wondering what the connection between Keith and Phyisis was supposed to be and where the others Mother Eliza spoke of are. And who the hell is Grand Mother?

Also, Tony is an interesting character, on the one hand he's a huge asshole with no empathy (very bad leadership prospect), but on the other hand he seems to follow everything Jomi says and seems intent on convinces others to do the same. This is very good as Jomi actually has some empathy and leadership ability. Hopefully the little chat in the break room about Tony taking over was an isolated event. He seems to understand his position much better than the other kids, who all need to be slapped harshly in the face a few times.

[Everon]

Tony may have the body of a 16 year old, but like the rest of the children, they've still got immature minds. Whether or not Tony will turn into a good leader, I think is still up in the air. He needs more time to grasp the situation, time which the Mu unfortunately do not have.

Grand Mother seems like the mastermind computer of the whole human memory alteration. What bugs me is Keith's revalation about himself. I can't tell if he's accepted his role as the perfect human being, or if he wants to put a stop to the memory manipulation.

Yeah, I'm a bit confused about Keith as well. In the last episode he looked more human to me when he found out about his origins but at the end he looks like a machine.

For you folks that might have missed it last week.

Seems like Keith has accepted his role as perfect human afterall. BTW, is anyone else annoyed by the sexual tension between Keith and his psychic sidekick? Kiss and get over it with already!

Fucking Matsuka....

[shinta|hikari]

I hate Matsuka. The only reason I think he even follows Keith around is because he has some kind of taming instinct, wanting to make Keith show his "true self" even after being treated like a dog.

[Everon]

Terra 23 (http://www.datorrents.com/download.asp?id=26616&name=%5BMakoto%5D%20Toward%20The%20Terra%2023.mkv. torrent)

More hubric intrigue.

[Board of Command]

Weird how Keith has an abort button on his desk. I thought that was the PEW PEW button.

Fantastic ending. Be sure to watch the after the credits!

[Death13a]

I really liked the show and it had very good ending.

[Yukimura]

Man, a good ending to a good show. Good plot, good charachters, good villain, good redemption, pretty much all around good stuff. I was somewhat bummed about all the things that happened at the end but all in all it was well executed and very touching.

[Board of Command]

Fantastic ending. Be sure to watch the after the credits!
Crap...I deleted the episode already. Can someone briefly describe what happens after the credits?

[Death13a]

highlight:
Earth probably thousand years older.

[JMSpeed]

Crap...I deleted the episode already. Can someone briefly describe what happens after the credits?

The final medigo ship (partially destroyed) standing upright in the form of a cross on a rejuvenated, sunlit terra.

The entire series was compelling and touching. And the ending, was perfect. I have seen a lot of anime, and this one tops my list. I really enjoyed every moment.
