Science fiction is so prevalent in anime that Hollywood movies and TV series can only envy its diversity. Here you can find space opera, giant robots, cyberpunk, and even alternate history.
1. Space Pirate Captain Harlock, 1978-1979
An anime classic based on the manga by Leiji Matsumoto, a space opera about the pirate Harlock, who sails the galaxies on the starship Arcadia. The series is continued by another adaptation, Galaxy Express 999, which takes place in the same universe.
Despite the dated graphics, the anime is memorable for its romantic atmosphere, well-written world and vivid characters. And the main character, Captain Harlock, will make you fall in love with him from the first episode — he is a grim but noble loner, ready to die for his principles.
2. Planetes, 2003-2004
The characters of Planetes are space scavengers who clean the Earth's orbit from old satellites and their debris that can damage ships.

Makoto Yukimura took to Twitter on Dec 20, 2023, to announce an unexpected delay in the release of Vinland Saga chapter 208 in the upcoming issue of Monthly Afternoon magazine.
According to the tweet, the chapter, which was originally scheduled for release on Dec 25, 2023, will not be published as planned. It will instead be delayed by a period of two months.
This decision to go on a break was taken due to unexpected health issues faced by the author and his family.
He, however, assured the fans that medical tests ruled out the possibility of Covid-19 and influenza, with the doctor diagnosing the condition as a common cold. Despite initial concerns, Yukimura’s family, including his eldest son, has since recovered, and everyone is now in good health.
Yukimura apologized for any disappointment caused by the hiatus, assuring fans that the decision was made to ensure a full recovery before resuming the series.
