5.0 out of 5 stars Banner continues to impress, December 17, 2010

This review is from: Banner of Stars 2: Anime Legends Complete Collect (DVD)

With the war between the Abh and the United Mankind in mop-up stages, a series of task lay ahead: dealing with the remaining enemy fleet and bringing back under control planets that had been lost during the war. The story picks up with Lafiel and Jinto as they are assigned as Territorial Ambassadors assigned to a planet whose political situation is growing more unstable by the day. Having to navigate intersecting and overlapping sense of responsibility, justice, and commitment, Lafiel and Jinto discover what is truly important to them.

Both the Crest of the Stars and Banner of the Stars series are, in my opinion, anime sci-fi gems. The films do a great job conveying the rich story, beautiful narrative world, and deep characters from Morioka Hiroyuki's classic story. There are few anime science fiction series that are at once so fun, so rich, and yet serious enough to be meaningful.
