This anime is slightly above average for me and I enjoyed watching it. TLDR: This anime isn't amazing, but it gets better over time. Recommended for: people who like to critically reflect/discuss on what they watch. Positives: (1) if you've come for feminist themes and social commentary, this anime is good for showing the interpersonal relationships between girls/women in the workplace such as Namino and Haru, and these character interactions can be a good point for thinking critically about things (if that's something that interests you as a watcher) (2) once you get past it, the anime isn't purely about feminism or "proving the men wrong"and there is an irony to their work as space fishers which will click about 60% of the way through

Negatives: (1) This anime involves quite a few uncomfortable scenes clearly made for the male gaze which soils a lot of the positives, (2) I'm not a fan of the infantilization of some of the characters, if you're looking for "girl power" or "strong women" be prepared for characters who behave younger than their age, (3) there is an unfinished plot line that I would've like to have seen resolved/seen the conclusion of and it seems in the series as if there is set-up for a second season but as its now 2024, that clearly didn't come to fruition
