Crunchyroll’s got a very good get this week with the addition of the Martian Successor Nadesico anime series thanks to Nozomi Entertainment. The streaming service now has the full TV series, the Gekigangar 3 OVA and the Prince of Darkness movie to give you the full experience. Due to it being an older license that has its rights split around the world already it’s only available to viewers in the US and Canada.
Check out our review of the series.
Plot concept: The Earth, its moon and its Martian colonies are under alien attack, but the war against the “Jovian lizards” has, so far, been nothing short of a series of disasters.
Disgusted by the incompetence of Earth’s military, the independent arms manufacturer Nergal builds its own space battleship and plans to launch a desperate offensive to save humanity. But due to a shortage of trained soldiers, they’ve assembled the most unorthodox crew to ever launch into orbit! With a pacifist cook-turned-unwilling mecha pilot and a ditsy admiral’s daughter in command, can this unprecedented gathering of geeks, misfits and anime fans prevail against the Jovian menace?
