I've seen the first four or five episodes. Since it's not a particularly fast-moving show, I can't really testify as to the plausibility or palatability of later developments in the real meat of the plot, but I can say that it treats its concept and subject matter with due seriousness and attention to detail. It's definitely aimed at thinking grownups rather than action junkies. The character designs are, um, rather dated - a la Matsumoto or Wings of Honneamaise (sp?), but with a normal TV budget rather than their gorgeous production values. Mechanical and historical details were spot on to the best of my ability to determine.
I have every intention of picking up and watching the rest of the series or its manga incarnation at some point... I'm just... um... *eyes massive 'To Watch' pile, including about half of BTVS and all of B5* ...procrastinating. My viewing was interrupted by download and storage issues, though, not anything related to the show itself.
