A familiar friend from the original series reappears
And there’s a promise of more friends from the past: we hear about a mysterious ship, the Silvius, perhaps a refitted Silvana. It looks to me as though they’ve retained the Silvana’s uniform, too.
PS., I love those toys. They’re just right for that time and that place, and a nice touch to give the world of the series a bit of added depth.
PPS., the aerial Obon candles were a nice touch, too.

I caught the goat, but now that you pointed out to the other stuff, that’s pretty rich.
I sort of glazed over the toys because they didn’t really pop out…whoever does layout for Gonzo need to step up their game. Or color direction, whichever. It’s like when I look at a cut of Penguindrum, it is so vivid and lively. When I see Last Exile it all kind of feels mushed together (if it isn’t CG).
Yes, the toys, especially, almost look like after-thoughts — compare the crudity of this version of the goat and toys to this one from the original series.
