Well it might help if the cast were adults instead of kids. For obvious reasons of course.

Well, it's certainly a unique idea. I don't recall anything else involving a high school student being dragged off to become the captain of a pirate ship because their father had been captain and died. The fact that it's girl makes it that much more interesting, and sticking her in a miniskirt certainly doesn't hurt. I'm not quite sure what to think of them adapting a light novel series when the second volume isn't even out yet, but the idea is certainly enough to intrigue. I think that I'll keep an eye out for it. Hopefully it's good.

Ha ha, that's quite the interesting combination right there. It'll sell well, I imagine. Heck, I'm already sold. Very Happy

Sure mini-skirts and space pirates are cool. And put them together and it's even better. But do they have to call it that? I mean I believe in truth in advertising and all, but this is just going... I don't know... it's a little much.

Maybe I like for series to at least have the allusion of depth. I don't know. Laughing

If this isn't a sign of desperation from the anime industry, I don't know what is! Rolling Eyes

I'm surprised that I'm kinda into this idea.

Guess I'm just a sucker for Space Opera's......skirts too I guess.

I hope that this is supposed to be intentionally ridiculous. I shudder to think that it's reached the point where they can't be bothered to come up with a name to even thinly veil the fact that their anime is about fanservice.

Coming this summer: Panty flashing moe girl harem. To be followed in the fall by: Panty flashing moe girl harem 2: Different girls who are actually the same.
