  What a surprise! another rare Anime that blows the Manga out of the solar system.

  Those opening 3 episodes were certainly a stroke of genius, lacking any OP what so ever and directed to capture the viewer into its den of amusement.

  My review consists of 2 sections;

  1. I will offer my thoughts of this show,
  2. I will put forth a few ideas which aim to boggle your mind whilst exploring the central theme of the show.

  Section One.

  ---

  A breath of fresh air. Space pirates, Isekai, Struggles between Nobles, Well thought out backstories? It’s got a bonanza of pure bliss. It’s smooth, oozing with sauce and super-bingeable to boot.

  __Story __ Fantasy lite, taking a few pages out of the ‘Fantasy Encyclopedia’, plus a large helping of Sci-fi honing in their their efforts there. A great choice by them. Not enough sci-fi to start wriggling around your brain centres for continuity notwithstanding us fantasy lovers would rather have a sea of our fan-favourite elements, but contentment still comes easy. The backstory behind this Isekai is extremely relevant becoming the driving force behind the plot. A Rare sighting, how brilliant! An author actually using the true purpose of the isekai theme. What a backstory it was! it’s crazy but not unbelievable with ample time to take in the true emotion, and to empathize with the perils of the MC. The Manga attempted the same thing, but it felt like an amateur attempt, compared to this which was just short of excellent. Once we enter back into it’s main plot, we get back on track for most Isekai. It’s still retains some charm and ingenuity but it does start to ride the same train tracks we are used to, but with a few jump switches, regarding the pacing which aren’t so appreciated. The is plot somewhat acceptable, right up our alley, lacking tension and having our beloved MC mowing down his enemies in the classic Dynasty warriors esque fashion. I will say that what it does quite well is that you can genuinely hate every single opponent he mows down, the directors with the guidelines from the author expertly lay the foundation for each of the confrontational encounters making every fight meaningful and every defeat feel deserved. This is important, because, I cannot even begin to talk about the amount of isekai where I rooted for the bad guys. The authors of those poor shows were so incompetent that it was so easy to take off the wholly superficial plastic packaging of obtuseness forced on to these characters for the sake of plot. These villains were likes of rapists, thieves, demons, murderers corrupt in all kinds of ways but at the end of the day I preferred and could empathize with their characters more than the main ones. Here I hated every villain, and loved the main cast. There's real villains, scoundrels, scalywags, evildoers and they love it! The type of wicked people, the only thing you can sympathise with is how much they love their job. I can't stress that enough, i used to pray for times like these. The conclusion was very satisfying, and was cleverly directed. The type of ending that you don’t know whether a next season is needed. Naturally, a new installment is gladly welcome but I wouldn’t be distraught if it never came. This studio isn’t known for longer projects either.

  __Characters __ When time is put into them, it’s extremely hard not to love them or appreciate them, they’re written with understanding. They mostly play their roles but there’s a richness to their interactions such that where you never feel that you need more of them, especially in these short 12 episodes. For most of them, don’t expect any grandiose character development, the meat is for the main cast. The way they’re written allows the viewer to understand them and empathize with them so barely any of their actions seemed out of place. There’s lazy scumbags in this show that surpass the best characters in so many of the isekai released today. A few of them really gave me a good a chuckle, it's a bag of sweets, so enjoy.

  Oh boy did they do well here. From all your favourite sound effects to the soundtracks underscoring its heated moments their efforts shone through. The composer ‘Ceo Yusuke’ I’ve only heard his work from another underrated banger  of a show ‘Under Ninja’.

  He was great there also. From those 2 it's evident that he's got a massive range breathing the life into these worlds, giving me goosebumps at the heights of the show. They were tactful with most of the material sounds and effects although some were a bit off. Comedic tones were clever and the more eerie tracks whilst simple outshone what was going on on-screen sometimes. If I had a critique it could definitely sound a bit more intergalactic, cosmic and celestial it certainly fits the theme, but sometimes you could definitely use it for a world devoid of these elements.
  
  Have a listen to their main themes, and you'll understand what the composer went for here.

  </center> __Animation __ 
  ``
  
   Nothing too remarkable, for the most part a serviceable adventure. Ample detail where needed, various scenes showing good facial expression, minus the robots. If my favourite manga/LN was adapted with this level of animation, I’d have absolutely nothing to complain about, it more than does the job. With a space setting, spaceships, advanced technological weapons, 3D is just perfect for this scenario. It’s ok, but as is standard with Japanese production it’s never that good. The space fights, well everything is followable, but lets just say its the writing and characters carrying the experience. It is possible to get the feeling of grandiose intergalatic fights of sheer magnitude but i suppose the feeling is quite fleeting. They tried very hard with the visuals so the effort is evident and undeniably there though it lacks polish. You'll see all sorts of contraptions and ideas in this, some comes out quite well, some leave a lot to be desired, by all means it's appreciated.
  
  They even went for the the cinematic bars at times.

  __Section Two.__
  
  Great shows allow you to engage in deep thought about the themes, this show is somewhat a masterpiece for that.
  This show appears to be not so deep, but in each idea they bring forth, whether knowingly or unknowingly there’s an ocean of depth to be discussed there. I will bring attention to one of the main themes behind this show, it’s not so overtly discussed but it’s totally explicit once you finish the show. 
  
  AI/Robot vs a Human Woman as a Wife.
  
  First of all the primary purpose of a woman than to be a man’s wife, a helpmeet. Her purpose comes from a man. Wo-man literally meaning from-man.
  
  Before this show honestly, I’m more of a realist, so if you’d ever ask me about this, I would just brush it off, say that it’s impossible for AI to replace a human woman dismissing that thought as mere folly.
  
  Initially I was frustrated, viscerally irritated at the MC’s obsession with the robot, but the truth is you can't really 'simp' on your own Robot. Episodes rolled by and the more I thought about it, the more I watched the show I realized I was wrong. There's an abyss worth of argument for such a peculiar situation...
  
  We had quite the intriguing experience of this idea from various shows and games like ‘Nier’ and particularly the show we had quite a few seasons ago ‘My Wife has no Emotion’. 
  
  https://anilist.co/anime/175450/My-Wife-Has-No-Emotion/
  
  A show about a man purchasing a robot in a real world setting, flirting with the idea of replacing a woman with a Robot. It did attempt to tackle this topic but it felt incomplete and ultimately it gave the impression that it didn’t believe it’s own argument. Whilst this is the anticpated conclusion, It’s a shame we couldn’t delve deeper. It did great at painting quite the magnanimous picture of this idea, getting the rubber on the road depicting the sheer awkwardness of displaying a robot as a wife to others and even your own parents.
  
  Let’s explore some similarities and differences between a human woman and an AI/robot copy.
  
  Human woman
  - Has emotion, and is more loyal their emotion that to the man.
  - Can give you offspring whether that is even yours, or productive isn’t guaranteed.
  - Existential crisis is betrayal of the man. Betrayal is practically impossible to avoid for most.
  - Needs to be raised, taught and cultured to be useful and productive or else impossible.
  - Social benefit.
  - Very Expensive.
  - Extremely Low Chance to be Virgin.
  - Value proposition unreliable, value never exceeds price.
  - Will decide if she will tailor herself to your desires.
  - Will decide if she wants to give you companionship or real emotional/sexual relief.
  - Will always be a burden, only redemption is through bearing and rearing productive offspring.
  - All responsibility, Authority is up for debate Can range from (0- 90%).
  - Family bridging, creation and inspiration.
  - Have to protect her.
  
  Robot with extremely advanced AI
  - Fake/manufactured emotion. 
  - No chance at offspring.
  - Very low chance of betrayal.
  - Will always be useful and productive.
  - Negligible social benefit.
  - Very Expensive.
  - If not buying used, you’re getting virgin robussy.
  - Always provides value, value exceeds price.
  - Will tailor itself to your desires.
  - Will give you (the illusion of)companionship and real emotional/sexual relief.
  - Burden reliably relieves as time goes on.
  - Most of the Responsibility(can blame faults on manufacturer), All Authority.
  - Empirical benefits are absent; Family creation, bridging, propagation.
  - Depending on the type can protect you.
  
  </center> Can you decide the winner here? 
  
  However what is even the objective purpose of having a woman in the first place as a man? Indubitably they’re mostly a burden, you’ve got all the responsibility like you would for your child but there's no defnitive sense or reality of control.
  
  I would say that the purpose first is children and secondarily bringing 2 different families together expanding influence. However men aren’t all this pragmatic and there is an intrinsic desire, essentially driven from hormones for all men to have something resembling a woman by their side.
  
  If you were to get something resembling a woman, a woman is still first choice for the practical and social objectives but for everything else you can’t be shamed for picking a robot.
  
  Frankly a robot/AI provides none of these empirical functions, but if you aren’t thinking so existentially and looking for pleasure, aesthetics, functional housekeeping, stewardship and maintenance then suddenly the comparison isn’t so fair towards the human woman. We haven't even begun to explore the canyon of social and legal hurdles which you may incur dealing with a human woman....
  
  If we are to think outside the box, are they mutually exclusive? <center>
  ___Why not have both?___
  
  Whilst this was pretty decent, i recommend the light novel as the definitive medium, if you finish this and hunger for more, start the light novel.
