Whenever I see lists of top science fiction anime I feel like the vast majority of the given shows aren't even science fiction. Unless all it takes to be science fiction is to be fiction and have some science. Maybe so and I'm just being a bit a snob, I don't know. I'm open to discuss the matter.

Anyway, here are some of my favorite science fiction anime. I'm curious if anyone else has some favorites that I have maybe never heard of.

  • Legend of the Galactic Heroes This is likely my all time favorite scifi anime. It's quite long and the list of characters quite extensive which isn't my usual forte, but there is just something so comfy about this show.

  • Blame! This is a bit of a weird manga to say the least. There probably aren't many manga with less dialogue. Regardless I still feel like I took an endless journey across a structure of a scale I can barely comprehend.

  • Space Battleship Yamato 2199 Regrettably I have not seen the original, but this more modern remake seems to be true to the classic style.

  • Royal Space Force: The Wings of Honnêamise A visually beautiful movie with all hand drawn backgrounds and animations. A tale about a group of individuals who have a dream of building the first rocket ship to make it to space.
