It's good but pales in comparison to its predecessor.
The first series was a beautiful love story about a boy maturing into a young man with an anti-war message of tolerance and understanding wrapped in an interesting and unique sci-fi world with an ending we all wish all anime had.
This series has the interesting sci-fi bit and it has a bit of romance but it's missing out on any deeper meaning. It's an adventure, a fun one, but not as fun and not really memorable like the first series. And it will confuse the hell out of you most of the time. The end doesn't even answer all of the questions.
The problems probably stem from the fact that Dai Sato (the brains behind the first series) wasn't attached to the project and that there were problems with the production staff mid series.
This isn't the Limited Edition! Why does it cost more?!
If you're going for the Limited Edition one, which actually costs less, don't buy this version! The other one on here is also a Blu-Ray + DVD Combo Pack and contains more. Don't be deceived like I was!
pass on this one
If you loved the original don't watch this one, it takes everything the original stood for and just throws that out
