Trivia:
The names of the Zentradi spies Warera, Rori, Konda form a complete sentence in Japanese. When rendered into Japanese words, it comes out as "Warera rorikon da". In English, the sentence means "We're pedophiles". moreGoofs:
Miscellaneous: Due to the fact that at least three studios of wildly varying quality worked on each episode simultaneously, many minor continuity errors and animation inconsistencies (for instance in Ep. 3 "Spacefold" where the escape pod under Roy's Valk every so often switches to a gunpod) crop up in each episode. moreQuotes:
Misa Hayase: Hikaru, go away! Don't try to rescue me! It's too dangerous!Hikaru Ichijô: When have I ever obeyed orders like that?

Still has a strong following and for good reason: The plot, the character descriptions, the mecha, the music, everything was wonderfully done - except for some sub-par episodes done by a Korean studio.
The voice acting was just what you would expect from self-respecting professionals. The storyline is tight and cohesive, while the characters seem to actually grow and mature before the viewer's eyes, seeming like actual personalities rather than just being mediums for the action.
This is definitely an anime everyone must see.
