  • I'm confused about michel as well. He looks like a boy but sounds like a girl is it a boy or a girl? Probably a gay boy so typical idiotic americans made it a girl.

  • Woah, woah, woah! Hang on a sec! I thought Michel was a GIRRL!  If she's a guy then why the heck is a girl voicing him! ...I'm so confused. -_-

  • They have space ships and entire civilizations built on asteroids... 9:28 but they use slave labor and swords as oppose to engines and guns?

  • It's all about the flying glass penis!

  • Wow, this show sucks.

    Why should I care again that these people are fighting?

    There's like...no characterization to relate to at all. They're just playing space battleship is all I see. Hope that changes in the next episode.

  • It's actually a really brilliant anime... I just completed the series. It's worthed to watch :)

  • Why do you go back to the ep1 comments to say this?

  • Really a fantastic anime... dramatic,exciting,undertones of ........ just what I like extremely... so I will share this with my friends...  thank you so much..

  • Hey Gonzo. Why don't the production staff grab themselves by the balls and come up with something original instead of a lame crossover between Escaflowne and Legend of Galactic Heroes.

  • A good example of what's wrong with anime nowadays. One of the worst opening themes ever. Not even an original song written for the show, just a crappy tune that doesn't fit, that was borrowed from a J Pop band.

    No way did the staff think this was a good song to use, this is just cross promotion and money changed hands.

  • ya, i can tell this will be horrible. Not even gonna try

  • Jeez, this doesn't make sense at all. If they have the technology for space ships and whatnot, then why are they riding in horse-drawn carriages and using swords to go to battle? Wtf man... with that technology they could blow up enemy ships with one fucking missile. Whatever, I won't be watching this bullshit.

  • Wilhelm scream! XD

  • *winces* I thought it was the sub. I think, as long as I can't understand it, this *coughs and in a snooty tone*, "ridiculousness might be endured."

  • it haves a weak start, and there is way too much

    deus ex machina, already, (too early) with the magnetic storm basically showing up out of nowhere, the shooting star deciding to show up when ever it feels like,

    i dont mind the animation, cuz i'm a big fan or the macross saga and other early anime, but to this day and age the quality is comparatively low.

    i gonna have to judge off storyline alone.

    weak start, potential pending further review.

  • ok well just skimming through, this looks like a shitty version of last Exile

  • A big battle, bunch of ships exploding. No one is shooting though... Looks like they half ass'ed this to save time. By the other comments this seems really bad.

  • absolutely horrible.

  • How very feudal of this show. Massive armies flying straight at each other, shooting each other down, sword fights. What I don't understand is, in this in space or something? I mean, at the end, she just goes out of her ship like that? Crazy.

  • WTF?!

  • wtf hes a she???????!!!!

  • Im not impressed yet. Im at 8:01

  • yay communism!

  • i was right michele was a dude

  • this one has 26 epsiode

  • I love that one commercial disbelief syndrom gravity one word no way

  • but on to more interesting things did anyone notice the guy with th white hair who had shaped like older moder telephones

  • What the hell...why is there only 4 episodes, cause I remember watching The Glass Fleeet before the Summer and there was at least 24 episodes?

  • because thats all they have right now jeez ever heard of licensing and copyrights complaints are for the stupid grow up you should be happy that they are even doing this in the first place same as when you saw the 24 episodes previously which was probably done illegally if you watched it online so please don't complain about youtube you is going through a lot of effort to do these things broaden your horizon and get rid of your selfish comments

  • Really, do you have conrete evidence to the claim that it was Illegal for FUNimation to post all 24 episodes?

    Further more, keep your the Insults to yourself, because the only one that needs to grow up is yourself.

  • oh geez thy repet lines from the origanal bible but add the black cross inplace of saying jewish people

    thats all.......

    kin of funny they r so advenced in electronics but yet they are so medival in the rest

  • Also, rofl, they have space ships, but no guns XD

  • Ever watched Serenity?

  • swords own guns

  • Only in a sword fight though. And there's a reason people use guns these days XD

  • cause they want an advantage over the sword users

  • and paper pwns rock!

  • lol if swords own guns.. why arent we using swords??? because all you have to do now is shoot someone. kills the point of a sword broham :3

  • with a gun you dont have to look the person in the eye when you kill them. a sword, is a different story. you have to know the person, you see their souls before you kill them. who they really are. and for all intensive purposes, you may not know who will win the fight. men were heroes when we wielded swords. now, we're just things who kill each other for no real reason.

  • People's army, rofl.

  • the only stupid thing i find in this show is that i cant tell weather the ships are being hit or are fireing...

  • No Wikipiedia Says michelle IS a girl, but she is pretending to be her brother who was a Man, twin brother

  • it makes a lot more sense since the voice actor is a girl who also played 18 in DBZ and her voice is totally feminine especially when she really screams not yells

  • Michelle is a guy O.O fooled the hell out of me XD

  • what are other cool action type anime shows

    i want to get in to them

  • Then you clearly did not understand the whole anime

  • Michelle sounds kinda like shin

  • so the voice actress who plays Michelle also plays Tohru in Fruits Basket her name is laura bailey

  • I agree with you Kitsune. Sounds like a girl too. :)

  • I thought Michelle was a girl.lol

  • Michelle really is a girl, she's just pretending to be a man

  • xD I thought Michelle was a girl also.

  • How anticlimactic... the plot literally when: "Attack!" "Yay! We won!" "Ah!!! Bombs!!" "Oh shoot I guess we didn't win.... sorry people." And then she leaves her (his? I dunno.) people there to be killed in the wedding scene. Then- "We're fighting again!" "Oh know they're not fighting back" "I'll do this myself...." Oh my... How unoriginal. I'm really disappointed. Jyu-Oh-Sei, Code Geass and Galaxy Railways are much better options.

  • The monologue at the beginning sounded promising. The Sub seems pretty good. But Filmation can only do so much with the show. The both space combat and ground combat were uninspired and unoriginal. The story was a bit confusing as it showed two revolutions at different times and places.

  • That guy with the gold and black eyes reminds me of Halleluja and Allelujah from Gundam 00.

  • Is Michelle a guy or girl. She sounds and looks like a girl and she has a girl's name, but everyone keeps refering to her as "him"

  • oh the opening voice is Laura Bailey..... It sounds a lot like Lust from FMA... obviously bc she played Lust but it is defenitly different from Kuro from Kurokami, Keiko from YuYu Hakusho, Tohru from Fruits Basket, and Sana from Kodocha.... and other stuff she played in.. LOL

  • OMFG! O-O I was wondering why the end theme sounded fimiliar then I was though "omgosh! This is Namida Drop by Plastic Tree!" Wow~ I never knew it was an end theme. xD

  • ads ads ads im tired of them some one stop ads there realy pissin me off

  • press refresh and they wont show

  • ..and an add shows up after something very exciting happens.. i hate you advertisements -.-

  • ok can some1 tell me if michelle is a chick or a dude the voice sounds like a chick

  • michelle is a dude i think

  • ya she is a chick

  • It all depends on which context the rose is used in. As well as the audience the show is aimed at.

    For instance a vampire themed show would have a black rose. To symbolise the darkness and all that.

    While a romance show would have a red or white rose, to symbolise love and purity.

  • if you had a good internet connection you wouldnt have that problem

  • thats only if you have a crappy cp, or too much info in it, it slows down everything

    so dont complain for the flaws of your own cp >_>

  • pervert

  • ahem...THERE ARE GIRLS THAT LIKE ANIME AND THEY DONT APRECIATE COMMENTS LIKE THAT!

  • oh and another thing this show reminds of star wars.... lol

  • it's like in every anime i watch there a rose, is there like some special symbolism there?

  • o.O thats odd but not as odd as there being a powerranger nockoff joke in almost every harem anime XD

  • is michael a guy or a girl he/she looks like a girl

  • looked the show up on wikipedia and apparently michaels a girl just a very flat chested one

  • I think they're using the french pronounciation of Michel, the french version of michael

  • his name is meshell is it a she or a he

  • unlike our nations this nation advanced transportaion forther than weaponry

  • lawl theyre so high tech yet their using Fucking retarded slowly fly up to enemy then shoot tactics of 18thC Europe, LOZZEERSSSSS

  • They have space ships..... why the hell were they using bows and arrows?!?

  • lawl thought it was called Glass Feet

  • i did. prolly why i clicked on it. lulz XD

  • Capture him before my tea gets cool lol DOUCHE!

    (but admittedly hardcore lol)

  • im cunfused dont know if thats a chick or guy

  • it's DUBBED??

  • WAIT WAIT WAIT!! If the leader is a guy why does he have a girls voice?

    none of this makes any sense this is a failure of series

  • This shit is kind of gay.

  • This is the stupidest thing I've ever seen. A leader playing with roses, futuristic battle with old medieval outfits. I think the guy who made this series should be dragged out of his house and shot.

  • This stinks like ass and feet... ha... ha

  • hahahaaa, why do the women look like men lmao !

  • Seems boring based upon a single episode, but it'll take a few more to know if this is any good...

  • this anime looks like it'll be good but.....it has sum SERIOUS LOGICAL faults!!!

  • is he a she???

  • ITS a girl pretending to be a boy(she has a twin bother she pretending to be him)

  • What the hell?  Why isn't he suffocating in space?

  • damn....I was hoping to for another anime like "Last Exile" but instead I get bishounen shit.

  • Sea battles in space? SIGH.

    Noble causes but it all lacks feeling. There isn't much that wants to keep you interested.

  • 4:18 - They should be chanting, "Yes We Can! Yes We Can!"

  • this anime sukks the only good one i can find is ohshc! that is the dedeyest programme ever! Yay ohshc!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • Ugh... boring, crudely drawn characters, bad designs, and an over dependence of CG effects, plus a story that fails to draw me in... more shit from Japan. God anything will pass for anime, and funimation will eat it up.

  • The reason they say "he" and "sir" is because the real Michel is a guy, the character you see is the sister imitating the brother.

  • gay

  • What tipped you off? The rainbow over the three guys at the end of the intro?

    Or just the fact the entire episode sucks balls.

  • this show is boring but......nahh its just boring

  • The dubs are umm...unsuiting for the characters.

  • As usual.

  • Michel is a girl. They just say sir as a respect thing for her position... maybe the translators didn't know the word m'am.

  • She must be that tough :O

  • actually at one point in time, all military officers, despite their gender, were called sirs.

  • she reminds me from the girl off the old movie Joan'de Arc

  • I am now a fan of this anime.

  • Hold on a minute.....Isn't that the Dubbed voice of Haruhi from OHSHC?! And Haruhi's voice was sorta guyish!?!!! SO THERE!!!!!!

  • no

    nooooo

    two totally different voice actors...

    the one for OHSHC is caitlin glass

    the one for this one is laura bailey

  • Does Michel sound like a girl in the Japanese dub, too?

  • Michel aka Racine Blanch is a girl. Sorry but I just had to tell, because it was getting boring reading the same thing. "Why does Michel sound like a girl?" Duhh, because she is a GIRL.

  • Just one question then why do they keep on saying he not she its really retarted if you ask me that they would make a mistake like that over and over again

  • I'm assuming they gave the male Michel a female voice so that when Michel and Cleo get closer, it doesn't freak out American viewers. Aside from the hair and the voice, Michel is clearly drawn in a masculine fashion - the face is too blocky, the body (clothes aside) too straight lined.

  • Not to give out spoilers but I read on Wikipedia about the series and the character Michel and now I get why Michel has a female voice. :) I find extra research on stuff helps a lot plus aids me with informing other people. But yeah, there is a logical reason why Michel has a female voice, not 'just' cause of the later relationship with Cleo.

  • Good Lawd the hair styles....

    ABBA/Prince fans will love this....

  • michelle is a girl

  • is michelle a girl or a boy cuz they keep calling her/him a guy but she/he sound like a girl?

  • Michel is suppose to be a guy but sounds like a girl (with a logical explanation which is revealed later in the series)

  • Did he say SIR?!?! At 14:50?!?!?!

  • is it just me, or do you guys focus on one of that guys eyes rather than the other?

  • wait wtf? michelle is a dude??

  • Michel is a guy's name, too. I think it's French. Sort of like an offshoot of the name Michael.

  • yeah i have heard of that it is just that my moms name is michelle and the "michel" (or w/e the spelling)dude in glass fleet looks and sounds like a chick so yeah i was surprised when they kept refering to him as "he"

  • thats what im saying? michelle sound like a girl

  • How are they breathing in space?

    Now I want to launch some fireworks in space...

    That dude sounds and looks like a chick...

  • Air in space. Take that astrophysics.

  • Ugh... the flaws of Science in Anime...

  • ugh its called science fiction ?! it doesnt have to be accurate

  • Dub is the best. only niggers like sub.

  • everyone got different tastes ... i like both and i am not even a nigger lol

  • screw you, that is so inappropriate.

  • FFFUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU­UUUUUUUUU

    why'd it have to be duuuuuuuuuuuubbed?!?!dsf;khasf­klhas

    oh well.... guess i dont get mah glass fleet. id rather read the manga n e ways >_>

  • Oh no, why did they put it in my own language so I can understand it?

    Fucking Weeaboos.

  • b-b-but it sounds so geeeeey! ;~;

  • Le gasp! They translated it from moonspeak to human. Those bastards!

  • and i loves mah moonspeak!

  • lot of things about this show are confusing but the most confusing. why do all main characters have blonde hair? almost every anime they have blonde hair (or crazy colors that arent natural)? im pretty sure the japanese almost all have black hair soooooo the heros are european or american?

  • Wait... this show doesn't make any sense.

    First off, why are they using swords and horses? They are IN FUCKING SPACE!

    Next, why does human slavery even make sense? Wouldn't upkeep of a human slave cost more than a machine?

    Does this show know what time period it is in? I mean, I could understand if this was a show in ye olde England, but this is FUCKING OUTER SPACE! They should be shooting lazers and fighting on distant planets, not over little chunks of dirt.

    Retarded.

  • "Wouldn't upkeep of a human slave cost more than a machine?" ah, but you cant power a machine only off of other machines. thats right, cannabalism. see? slave upkeep is not almost nothing!!!!

  • swords are regarded as a more noble weapon

    it also show higher ability thats why a lot of military people still have them

  • haha, well did you know that some science fiction in Space have swords?! like light sabers in Star Wars or robotic horses in Brave Starr? also pulp science fiction based in space (mostly set in Mars) have characters loosely based on a period piece like victorian gentleman .... not every science fiction is made the same .... it's called imagination and it does not have to make sense :)

  • The difference between light sabres and swords is that they are futuristic. I can understand using a sword if you ALSO have a gun, but they don't have any guns of any kind. (that I can see)

    I don't want all the science fiction to be the same you asshat, I just want some consistancy. If you have space ships, don't use swords (unless you have magic powers).

    Also, how are swords imaginative? They are in almost EVERY SINGLE ANIME.

    P.S. No one likes Brave Starr. No one.

  • haha ok ok i got ur point ... i am just open minded :) and hey Brave Starr is the man when i was a lil boy, lol ....

  • i would think they would have guns AT LEAST for the foot soldiers and give the mains swords kinda like Warhammer 40k

  • 40k has a great setup for that, tons of guns for everyone, but then the officers have many high powered melee weapons and pistols.

  • 21:53 makes me DIE! It is entirely too snotty noble! What absolute hilarity.

  • They seriously believe she's a guy!? Have they all never seen a woman before or something?

  • no one really knows in japanese cartoons. The common assumption is guy. That's how it works in japan right?

  • Well, in Japan, the men and women look the same - you really can't blame them, right?

  • hey if it can boil it's flamable and it snowed like 4 years ago in texas

  • You know, with everything I just saw, I only have one question.

    Guy or girl?

  • Girl, its revealed later.

  • Interesting church service.

    I like the premise: Ye Merry Old England in space. With a possibly American or French revolution?

  • reallity check????? cannons in space????? no sucktion when glass broke??? breathing is space???? HORSE AND CARRIGE??? WATER CATCHING ON FIRE? SNOWING IN TEXAS!?!!?!?!?!?!!?!? wow

  • you know, it does snow in Texas.

    Granted its once a decade, but it still snows.

  • some times shows just do that.....

  • i don't know what to make of this show yet

  • wtf? Michel looks and talks like a chic!! i think FUNimation made a mistake...

  • I don't know about the manga, but she even announced her name as pronounced 'Michelle'.

  • yes well that may be the case, but they refer to michelle as 'Sir' and Him, not her or ma'am. I dont know, but it keeps me up at night. And i can't watch this show if the dude sounds like a chic and looks like one, it would throw me off

  • That is because, it is a her, she pretends to be male.

  • Yes, as sagasky said, she is pretending to be a man. That said, I think it was a poor choice to pronounce the name Michelle instead of Michael. Would have been less confusing.

  • In most militarys the female officers are still refrenced as "Sir", like the british and russian armys.

  • I wish the would put in Claymore, or Kenichi....

  • thats what i would like to know

  • how do they breath in space???

  • if they didnt put adds in this, this wouldnt be on youtube, it pays for it

  • Michel is male?

  • fuck google ads
