Review of Royal Space Force: The Wings of Honneamise

Shiro Lhadatt is an average guy who wasnt able to fullfil his dream of being a pilot .Instead the road of life placed him in the the Royal Space Force (RSF),an organization that very existance is a enigma and is a source of much ridicule and scorn and is seen as a huge waste of funds in a country with so much social problems.Shiro Lhadatt live day to day with no real expectation or hope for the future,as he see's nothing that can change his state of mediocrity. His life changes when he meets a young god-fearing woman who encourages him to look beyondand think higher than his current surroundings.And so to everyone surprise he volunteer to become the first person to undertake a journey to outer space.His choice takes everyone by surprise since out the of all of his colleague's he was the the one with the least interested in the the Royal Space Force (RSF).

While everyone associated with the RSF thinks this mission is just in scientific interest,the state has their own insidious agenda for wanting the test to go underway.

The first thing that stand out about this anime is the brilliant animation,it is incredible.The texture and shade of the colours and the detail of the drawing looks so vivid and real.Whether its a scene of the city at night time,a house or the forest it is done in great detail.Most will say the animation is dated,but the drawing far surpass most of the computer generated animes that use mainly bright colours and special affects to mask drawing impefection.

A scene that stood out in my mind especially was when the launch was about to take place in the latter part of the anime and image of the rocket was shown,you just down get that realism with todays anime.

There wasnt a great deal of music in the anime,but the little that was in it was quite appropriate and fitted the mood and feel of the anime.

It did get a little bland at time since the pacing can get rather slow ,but it still manage to keep my attention.There is also a touch of humour in the diologue as well.There is definately a' slice of life' feel to this movie and the characters portray this message confidently without being strange or pretentious unlike so many of todays anime.Overall a very good watch.
