Aww... Gunbuster is a favourite anime and one of the first places I was introduced to the concept of time dilation (the second was Joe Haldeman's Forever War).

Then again, this thread deserves nothing better than lovely 9/11 memes.

I love Gunbuster and it's funny that you mention The Forever War because it's what inspired the time dilation in Gunbuster.

Anyway, anime proved that jet fuel will melt steel beams back in the 80s. Case Closed.

Gunbuster is kinda like a Tarantino film in that it's an original work that's also a loving homage to the works that inspired it. Most of which are the anime, movies and science fiction the guys making it had grown up on or were into at the time.
