About Martian Successor Nadesico
Only one ship stands between earth and total annihilation! The High Mobile Battleship Nadesico is the most formidable fighting machine ever conceived, but due to a shortage of trained soldiers, the crew is a little unorthodox. The poor Jovians don't stand a chance against the largest contingent of geeks and misfits ever sent into orbit!
Directed by Michitaka Kikuchi, Martian Successor Nadesico leans on a strong ensemble — Yuji Ueda, Houko Kuwashima, Omi Minami — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The series landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about animation titles of 1996.
