About Voices of a Distant Star

Here is what Voices of a Distant Star (ほしのこえ) is about, retold in plain terms: a drama, mecha and romance anime by CoMix Wave (2002). The premise: It is 2046 when a mysterious alien force kicks off their annihilation of the human race. Leaving behind the one person she loves, Mikako joins the interstellar clash as a pilot.

Another thread: So - while Mikako risks her life to save mankind - Noboru waits. At first days, then months, then years for each new message that will let him know whether Mikako is still alive. While she barely grows older in the timelessness of space, Noboru ages.

In a drama series like this, character writing and emotional payoff matter more than spectacle. Voice work is led by Chihiro Suzuki as Noboru Terao and Sumi Mutou as Mikako Nagamine. If you count yourself among viewers who prefer story and feelings over flashy action, put it on your list. The run is 1 episodes in total, so you know what you are signing up for.
