Have you guys seen this film? It's an anime but please don't run away just yet, i promise you it's really good, much like Kerbal it's not about guns or action per say but about a space-program and it's one of the best films i ever saw even though i am not really an anime fan, i always think of it when playing Kerbal.

If you have the time give it a go.

I ran into that movie by chance and loved it! The Janky-ness of all of the space technology is very kerbal-esque.

Also, if you like hard SF anime, be sure to check out Planetes.

The song in the second video should be KSP's official theme song. Looks like a good movie, I'll have to check it out at some point!

Here is the original song used in tribute to Major Kerman:

I saw this film at least ten years ago and it still in my memory as a great film. It's the fisrt film of the Gainax studios, later they make Gunbuster and Neon Genesis Evangelion.

You make me want to watch it again.

I'm into the 4th episode of Planetes and really quite enjoying it, it seems a bit more fast-paced than i'm used to but i'm enjoying the artwork and the humour a lot, you wouldn't happen to have any more recommendations by any chance?

I finally watched this.

Now I'm looking into buying a DVD, in either English or Japanese.

Be careful if you're watching the english dubs. They only have up to episode 9 on youtube. D:

Custard Donut (in space); i may be nitpicking here, but ths is still not the original song. The original is german. (and it is much more depressing i think)

I need to see this movie, anyways. I like this old style much more than modern drawing styles. It feels oh so gritty.
