Okay... noiw... so I'll make this simple.

Created by J.C. Staff, based off a book, awesome characters, awesome story, ultra dramatic, definately heartpounding.

Well, okay maybe not that simple. It's a really great anime, I just bought it yesterday, and watched it until well... about now. there's a total of 13 episodes and it's pretty damn fast paced. Although it can be slow at times. The entire things is based around a single state of the art battleship and it's crew of military cadets. If you don''t like gaint ship to ship combat... well... what can I say? This probably isn't your thing... unless you're in it for the massive amouts of drama (including romance). Anyway, I have to say this is the only anime I've seen that's managed to make my heart pound that much, and that's saying something. The entire thing absolutely was amazing!

Oh did I mention that that single battleship is against an entire enemy alliance? It's pretty crazy, but really cool. The anime basially hits war on the frontline and political level at the same time.

Uh... well anyway, I'd say this one is definately a win.

Oh, and yes, it does have attractive girls in it. The ship has quite a bit of female crewmembers, although many of the major people on board are male... This being the captain, the main gunner, engineers, etc. I'm guessing there would be a number of girls that may find the main gunner attractive.
