I have more to say, but I'm waiting for ANN to post that usual BD/DVD rankings so we can have a proper thread about it (which by the way, weren't they supposed to post that few days ago?). |

Yes, the same thing happend 2 weeks ago. I have no idea why they are being so slow with it, oh well, other sites do post it, so its not really a problem. |

CMIIW, but by reading Knights of Sidonia's characters profile, is it implied that sometime in the future, humanity (or at least, Sidonia's crews) will finally be able to photosynthesize?
And what exactly does this mean?

Due to certain events in Sidonia's past, they've deliberately altered the crew's genetic code to enable photosynthesis. Also, Blame! anime when? (No that one doesn't count.) |

Knights of Sidonia looks interesting, but I read part of the manga and it seemed utterly incomprehensible.
On the other hand, talking bear. |

Which makes no sense whatsoever. Humans would need several square meters of skin exposed to intense sunlight at all time just to cover the energy requirements of an inactive lifestyle. |

The mention of "Gauna" reminds me of Nihei's other work Abara. I wonder if there's supposed to be a connection with Knights of Sidonia or if he was just recycling some old ideas?

Oh I remember now, I started reading knight of sidonia and stopped exactly because of the photosynthesizing aspect. In essence, it's just there for fan service, to photosynthesize they all gather in a room, get naked and stand around, it's really dumb and it's only there for fan service.
Aside from that I think the CG work for the mech but not at all for the actual character. Might give it a go of the review come out very good, but otherwise… then again there's yet to be much that grabbed my attention. |

I find the Knights of Sidonia manga interesting, so I'm going to give the anime a shot. I don't know if I'll be able to handle that questionable CG, though. Maybe it'll look better in the show...? (Not likely.)

Can't look any worse than RWBY did; ugh, was RWBY painful to look at. I really enjoy the knights of sidonia manga so I too will be checking this out. Is it going to be exclusive to netflix? Will we actually be able to watch it as it airs? |

Knights of Sidonia actually looks really interesting... but, unfortunately, it suffers from the fact that it's being fully animated with CG.
This is just a personal thing but I can't stand fully animated CG anime. It's painful to watch, really. If it was just the mechs being CG, I'd be fine with it, but due to that it's FULLY CG, I will skip this. |

I liked the simplistic character designs in Knights of Sidonia, but then.......there was the bear. An anthropomorphic bear in a mecha? WTF?
Also, fully animated CG, not something I'm a fan of. I can tolerate it, but toleration and enjoyment are totally different things. |

I acteally checked out the preview for that show after reading your post. An anthropomorphic bear voiced by Satomi Arai? By the gods, that sounds amazing. |

Most of Nihei's work is like that. He's a really good visual storyteller, and isn't keen on using dialog to explain everything. |
