Summary: Listen to this...
Review: I've seen all of Nadesco's episodes up to episode six and I can tell you that I didn't just buy those videos to waste money, no surey Bob. I like this anime so much I can't wait to buy the rest of the series! You shouldn't just stop at this though, once you watch this anime you have got to watch others. I can give you tons of other anime series for you to watch that are so addicting(Fushigi Yugi) that you'll buy the whole series, but that's not my job. I'm here to tell you what a great anime Nadesco is, so I'll begin. This movie does not contain any graphic stuff(you know what I'm talking about) and it's the kind of movie that's best when watched alone or with a fellow anime lover. That's what makes Nadesco so cool. Wait, there might be something in there referring to you-know-what, but I wouldn't worry about it. It's a really good anime so you should buy it.Toodles!

Summary: great series
Review: nadesico is one of the best series ever. great animation and plot. this dvd should be nice in place of my fansubs :D

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: A great space comedy
Review: Nadesico was one of Japans next big hits after Evangelion. The story is usual fare, one experimental ship that goes against the great force threatening earth. The characters are pretty nicely done and the comedy is very good. The character interactions are extremely fun to watch. The animation is very good quality and the japanese voice actors do a very good job as always.

Keep in mind, although this is a comedy there is tons of action. Nadesico is able to mix slap stick comedy and action to form an enjoyable series.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Funny and action packed
Review: Martian Successor Nadesico is a great anime. Personally I thought it was great because it was funny and action packed. The story is based around a cook reunites with his childhood friend who is the captian the story then takes off from there. This anime is probaly one of the best mecca's I ever seen.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: VERY GOOD DUBBING!
Review: For anyone who has complained of bad dubbing,watch this video!ADV film has really outdone themselves with this dub.The dub complements the story and chracters so well and the parody's are hilarious.I put the dub next to other great dubs like the Digimon dub.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: A 'well-endowed' anime
Review: As the reviewer, Greg from D.C. said, "don't let the serious box art fool you." He is perfectly right.

For starters, just the first episode alone literally had me rolling with laughter, it was so funny. The following episodes, were just as funny. A good comedy this anime is, but it has, surprisingly, a deep story line and really good action.

The setting is this: In the future, our colonies on Mars have been destroyed by a seemingly unknown race of people known only as Jovians. Analysts believe that the Earth is next and Earth's defense... is failing. Tired of the incompetence of Earth's military forces, an independent corporation builds their own spaceship, calls it the Nadesico, and collects their own disarray of crew. Among this crew, we find a general's daughter, a fry cook, an otaku, an anime voice actress, and a strange gal that calls everyone an idiot (in fact, it's pretty much her only dialog).

Our seeming hero of the story is Akito "fry cook-not a pilot" Tenkawa, a survivor of the attack on Mars. The ship's captain, Yurika Misamuru, is the kawaii, well-endowed, grown-up daughter of a general who is ordered to capture the ship and her crew.

In all, I humbly believe that this anime is great for pretty much the whole family. But don't get me wrong here, there are a few scenes. One scene has adult content, but it shows nothing (it's implied) isn't anything to get wound up about. The other scene is downright horrifying. I'm 21 years old and seen my share of movies, but I didn't see this coming and was shocked to say the least. ...that poor little girl with the orange... :~(

I don't want to ruin anymore of this great title, so if you want to know all what I'm talking about, purchase a copy today. While you're at it, you might as well go ahead and pick up Volume 2 as well. This video is so good, you will anyway. ^_^

Summary: Gekiganger- gekigan flare!
Review: Nadesco is the funniest anime i've seen since dragon pink. the story revoles around the crew of the Nadescio. Nadesco seems to bring together all the best parts of anime w/ Mechas, great stoeyline, and voice acting. The Nadesco's crew it mixed w/ a obsessive enginer, a mecha-pilot/ cook, a emotionless helmswoman (idiots), and a captain that is always in the middle of a situation with akito that seems to annoy him. in the first volume you witness GekiGengar3, a anime that seems to always be in the same situation as nadesco's crew. anyways to make this short, buy nadesco now! you won't regret it!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Nadesico does it again!
Review: This volume is just as incredible as the first two! I only have one complaint: only two episodes?? C'mon ADV, don't hold out on us!!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: More Nadesico goodness
Review: Just like Animerica said, you can see this anime get steadily more serious. That's a good thing, by the way. This volume is as good as the first, and that means it's incredible. I still love this show, and I think almost anyone else will, too.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: What a show!
Review: I don't know what it is about this show, but whatever it is, it's perfect! I read the Animerica article on it and bought the video out of curiosity. After my first viewing, I found myself thinking that it was okay, but less than stellar. But then I watched it again. And again. And again. I found myself watching the video every chance I got until I could buy the next. I watch a lot of anime, and have extremely varied tastes (I also enjoy Akira and Serial Experiments: Lain), and I feel that this is one of the best. You can't go wrong with Nadesico.
