The Orbital Children is all ready to drop on Netflix on January 28, with its first part. The Japanese anime space adventure series follows five children, two of whom were born on the Moon and three from Earth, who are stranded on a Japanese space station following a horrific accident.
Set in outer space in 2045, hopes for their survival are bleak as they depend on a narrowband, some low intelligence AI, a social network, and a drone piloted through an AR device. Will they make it safe and alive?
Here is the stacked main voice cast for The Orbital Children.
