Gargantia on the Verdurous Planet
TV Show · Anime · Animation

In the distant future, a planet covered almost entirely by oceans, known as Earth, grows in space. Ledo, a boy who has known nothing but fighting all his life, saw the sea there for the first time. On its vast, faintly green waters, men organize huge naval fleets and live modest but active lives. Due to language and cultural barriers, Ledo lives as a lonely foreigner... but he's not alone. Ledo is just beginning his days on this green planet, asking what he must do to survive here, and what he is living for.

    Amy tries to help Ledo find a job and introduces him to a number of different industries aboard Gargantia, but he's just not able to land one. Then the wind dies down and the waves cease, making it a "Calm Day,” where the fleet shuts down so major repair work can be done. But for non-repairmen, it's time to take a breather. Pinion invites Ledo, Amy and her friends to a BBQ party. Everything seems to be going smoothly... until Amy gets involved in an aerial race and Ledo finds himself on the run from overzealous hostesses!

    Festival
    When Gargantia intersects with a Milky Way, it means there'll be a fishing bonanza, which also leads to a big festival. Ledo finally gets his chance to catch fish underwater in a Yunboro, but he's unprepared for the job. But during the festival, Pinion and Bellows, both of whom want to partner up with him for salvage work, approach Ledo. Meanwhile, Chamber is on a solo fishing mission of his own, but the giant Machine Caliber ends up causing even more trouble.
