You guys should really watch PlanetES... after 10 or so episodes the show becomes absolutely amazing.

Heh heh. 81.6% and counting... But thanks for the tip, nonetheless. It's good to hear recommendations, or should I say confirmations, even though it's mostly here already.Originally Posted by Budweineken
The evil-home papa colonel is one of my favourite characters in the team. The contrast between his stoic behaviour at work and his role as a doting dad at home is particularly amusing.
Kudos to Budweiken for starting this thread cos I love this series alot and it's a huge refreshing change to the usual ridiculously superhuman fare we're accustomed to. It's got an adaptable script good enough for film, audio and print. Plus, no heavy marketing with candy toys and other paraphernalia. Especially candy toys.
Hmm. Excited?

Well hopefully you'll like it, but give it a chance since the first couple of episodes are not as good as the last 16 or so... The atmosphere changes quite suddenly.
As for Rescue Wings, can anyone tell me how good those yu subs are? Remember I'm very picky.
I have been watching Yu subs all the time, and I don't have any particular complaints. Although I'm not that picky at all, so I suppose it would need to be a ghastly sub to deter me. Oh, I'm not saying Yu would be bad. I think it's good enough.
The episode I watched last was missing kanji letters (in karaoke), and if I have understood correctly that means the packet didn't contain a font, or something like that. I haven't educated myself enough to know how this matroska thing exactly works, and why it doesn't work optimally always. You might know the detail far better than me. But anyway, that was the case.
just watched episode 7. Man this show does such an excellent job of portraying emotions. It's very raw and yet somehow vivid at the same time. It's like meeting a beautiful woman who doesn't wear any makeup but still looks good all the same. ... except, well it's an anime...
oh, and yu fansubs are pretty lowly, (good enough for me though so long as it's not a show with alot of hard to do terms. The one set of terminology, the military ranks and codes, yu does a great job on. Froth-Bite is obviously the best group subbing this series, but I think it's been almost two months since their last release...
speaking of Froth, nobody's posted this link here yet.

Humans are different from animals. We must die for a reason. Now is the time for us to regulate ourselves and reclaim our dignity. The one who holds endless potential and displays his strength and kindness to the world. Only mankind has God, a power that allows us to go above and beyond what we are now, a God that we call "possibility".
Planes drop every day, but rescue helicopters never:
Episode 7-9 batch - Yu
Now, it had been such a long time that I had no idea anymore what was the last episode I'd watched, and thus I just set the whole thing to dl. Well, it turned out the episode 7 is redundant, unless it's an unmarked version 2. So, remove it or not from the files - your choice.
Edit: Fairly good episodes, although overdramatized. 8&9 are actually the first and last parts of a 2 ep arc. Maybe after all the apocalypse plots of the "normal" animes, the kind of everyday disasters happening in the real life don't feel like much, but honestly I can't see how all the people in the gondola seemingly lost their consciousness when it rocked a little bit... Well, that was the only weak thing, so I suppose it was a fine arc otherwise. A bit upscaled but nothing serious.
Oh, and too little helicopter action...

Yu released 10-12 batch
Really got to like this series - hopefully won't be waiting as long for next episode
Heh. Considering this is a 12 episodes series, the wait for the next episode could be long indeed...hopefully won't be waiting as long for next episode
For series aiming for high realism the slice of life could be a fitting description, and that also suits this series. There wasn't a strong plot, unless you consider character development a plot of the real life. Still, like seanos said, this was a very likable series, especially so because I like helicopters so much. And furthermore, the last episodes were very intense and interesting.
One more fine series is a thing of the past with this. I certainly wouldn't have minded if this, like so many others, had been a longer one.
Damn .... I would never has guessed that, it seemed like it was just going to get good/better...
Series as a whole was very good I thought, a lot of it was slow moving (not necessarily in a bad way).
It seemed like a 26-episode series, the pace it took was slow, and began character development late on.
cuz this show rocks and froth is the best group subbing it:
