While lurking through the Geneon Lounge here:

...I watched the trailer for the upcoming release of Starship Operators. It has a very interesting premise of having a group of mostly girl cadets fight against an enemy while being broadcasted on the air; so we got ourselves a reality TV concept mixed in.

From what I got in the trailer, it sounds like the Ocean Group is dubbing it (that narrator sounds like Kelly Sheriden who did Hitomi in Escaflowne and Sango in Inu Yasha). Not to mention the music will be done by the infamous Kenji Kawai of GiTS fame with songs by KOTOKO (Please! series).

So is this series worth it because I remember a few fansub groups dropped it or never got around in fansubbing it before it got licensed by Geneon.

Doesn't sound too bad, i might check it out if it gets subbed/dubbed

I've seen the first epidode. It's very effects-intensive, like Vandread, but it was kind of so-so.

Looks pretty good from the trailer. I'll have to look for it at Hammergirl when it comes out.

I've seen a few episodes. It's almost entirely fanservice, with little else. Take that as you will.
