Martian Successor Nadesico

It's the late 22nd century, and the Jovian lizards are attacking Earth. Nergal Heavy Industries decides to build its own battleship, the Nadesico, to take on the invaders.

Uneasy about the idea of a powerful battleship being in the hands of civilians, the United Earth military sends Admiral Misumaru's fleet to take control of the Nadesico.

The Nadesico heads to Mars, but in order to get there, it has to pass through the Earth's various lines of defense, including the Big Barrier. Can the Nadesico convince the United Earth forces to take down the barrier?

The Nadesico heads out to the Satsuki Midori space colony to pick up some new zero-G Aestivalis frames and pilots. After an explosion rocks the colony and disables it, their mission becomes one of rescue and retrieval.

On the long and boring trip to Mars, Prospector insists that Yurika take the time to perform funerals for all those who have been killed.

The Nadesico finally arrives at Mars only to have to fend off an enemy attack. Several members of the crew, including Akito, head out to explore the ruins.

Yurika and Inez put together a "Get to Know the Nadesico" broadcast to explain the crew's recent expedition on Mars. Meanwhile the crew's thoughts turn towards attempting to repair their badly damaged ship.

The Nadesico successfully returns to Earth only to find themselves right in the middle of a major battle. Meanwhile, on the battlefield, Akito's paralyzing fear has returned, making him a vulnerable target for the Jovians.

Admiral Munetake sends the Nadesico to rescue a goodwill ambassador stranded on an inhospitable island. Meanwhile, Megumi decides to use her free time to get closer to Akito in a virtual reality simulation.

Admiral Munetake announces that the crew's next mission is to the Tenician Island to investigate anew type of chulip. But the tropical island with its shining beaches may prove more of a distraction for the crew.

The Nadesico finds itself in trouble when they are given a mission to take out a new Jovian weapon called a "Walking Stick".

When the Nadesico's defense system malfunctions and starts attacking United Earth forces vessels, Admiral Munetake decides that the ship's memory banks should be completely wiped.

Christmas may be near at hand, but it's not going to be a happy holiday for the crew of the Nadesico. The UEAF doesn't want such a powerful warship under the command of civilians.

In a reversal of perspective, the Gekigangar crew settle down to watch the latest adventures of their favorite show: Martian Successor Nadesico!

Whilst Akito is trapped on the moon, back on the Nadesico Admiral Munetake suspects that the pilot of the Jovian robot they recovered may be hiding somewhere on the ship.

The revelation of the true nature of the Jovians has shaken some of the Nergal employees. Could spies in their midst already know about their secret plans?

Nergal discovers that Uribatake has been embezzling funds and spending a lot of time with Hikaru. Yurika drags Akito along on a special investigation to find out just exactly what the chief engineer has been up to.

Ruri discovers that she's the biological daughter of the King and Queen of a kingdom called Peaceland. With Akito acting as her "knight", Ruri sets off to Peaceland in the hope of filling in the gaps in her memory.

Nergal decides that to keep the Nadesico crew happy, they're going to give them a new captain! And what better way to pick one than to hold a talent contest?

The Jovian's have a new weapon - the "leap cannon". Capable of teleporting warheads inside of ships, it's potential is devastating. Can Yurika save the Nadesico and prove that she's more than just a ditz?

The Nadesico's new mission is defending the moon using its new phase transition cannon, but when something goes wrong with the Y Unit, the weapon becomes inoperable.

The Jovians send a peace emissary to the Nadesico - Yukina Shiratori, Tsukumo's younger sister. However, peace is the last thing on her mind - she plans to assassinate Minato, the woman who "corrupted" her brother!

Back on Earth, the Nadesico crew attempts to settle back into their old lives, despite the fact that Nergal is keeping a close eye on them.

When Tsukumo arrives on board to act as an ambassador, Yurika organizes a ship wide "Geki-Fest". She hopes that the themes of the show will serve as a guide for both the Earthlings and Jovians on how to achieve peace.
