Starship Troopers should have been a serious full lenth episodic scifi anime like Legend of Galactic Heroes or Space Battleship Yamato if one wanted to cover the full length of Rico career from start to finish instead of being a butchered movie adaptation by a bunch of Hollywood politically corrected asshats who don't even bother reading the book and think its fascist propaganda just because of its political and militarism theme or because they watched that 1997 parody of a film by Verhoeven. While i hate Japanese nationalist wank in their military mecha stuff at times, at least a Japanese anime studio with actual commitment would have make SST a more faithful adaptation. The book itself is simply just too long to cover the whole journey of Rico in one film from a boy to a man, and the episodic nature of an average weekly anime is more than enough to cover the whole interpersonal journey of a soldier perspective of an interstellar conflict.
