As I was watching this weeks episode, something came to mind. Yuki was talking about how if the base was destroyed, the people of Earth could go extinct. Then that got me thinking about another show about humans that survived near-extinction: Gargantia!

I don't know if this has ever been talked about, but IMO Aldnoah Zero could be the prelude to Gargantia. Go ahead and argue this among yourselves, but one thing that stood out to me the most was what I read on anisuki's forums. http://forums.animesuki.com/showthread.php?t=119195&page=4

The lack of a moon in Gargantia. Either that's one hell of a coincidence or Heaven's Fall is the reason there's no moon in Gargantia. Regardless, I thought it was pretty cool. Flame me if I'm wrong to your hearts content :D

Idk perhaps, but after reading
"Because there is no moon
This has been discussed before, and it's really very strange but if you pay attention you'll notice that in spite of the many shots of the starry sky that we got never once you can see the moon in them.

It could be just a coincidence or just an error, but it is very suspicious."

"I sure hope the lack of a moon is a coincidence or an error because the scientific implications of Earth actually losing its moon goes well beyond anything the series has demonstrated at this point. No more moon = calamity on a huge scale."

That got me thinking xD

But he doesn't care about it. He stopped writing anything after third episode.

no, he is very similar to Buddy Complex, there is no doubt as Slaine is so duente Bizon, just watch both anime and you will see that both are characters with unhealthy obsession, Slaine by Princessa and Bizon by Hina.
In both compulsive and have weak characters, Slaine and Bizon undoubtedly are the worst characters ever created, and Slaine much more childish and stupid.

The problem I have with it is if the people have already colonized mars then what's the point of escaping into space as cephalopods? Or even interstellar vessels for that matter. And correct me if I'm wrong the people of that earth were warring over technology and then later because of the oncoming ice age not due to invaders from Mars (who happened to also be genetically human).

That Glock 17 lesson seems to be in his voice. Either that or they got another Gun otaku on staff writing.

I'm not talking about a similarity in characters, I was just brainstorming(?) and thought that Aldnoah could have lead to the events of Gargantia. It could entirely be possible as A0 is set in 2014, whereas Gargantia is set to be in the far future (hundreds, maybe even a thousand years) and within that timespan, humanity could have reached near extinction, which would result in post-Gargantia earth. After the Earth is ravaged by war, the Martians could have abandoned Earth as it can no longer sustain life, and we all know they sure as hell don't like Mars, so they're forced to leave the solar system, maybe even taking some people from Earth with them, and thus they create the Galactic Alliance. Of course this is all just speculation, but I randomly came up with this idea and thought i'd share it to see what others think :s

Yeah Aldnoah.Zero = Gargantia.

Equality in disappointment and wasted potential.

Though even Gargantia's characters had a bit more depth than most of the characters in Aldnoah.

Id say garganita was better at being what it wanted to be.

The problem with gargantia is it wasnt what mal people wanted it to be.

Aka battle shounen with robots in space.

Yep, the writing in Gargantia was way better. If you recognized the tropes, the plot was coherent too.

I can't even start to guess where Aldnoah is going or what it wants to be.

I kinda see the similarities but they are different. for example Aldnoah zero is based in Japan
