Planetes?

It’s 100% Planetes, not sure why I didn’t recognize it earlier as it’s one of my all-time favorites. I’ve called it the Star Trek of anime before and I’ll still stand by that statement today.

It fills in an interesting niche of being a somewhat grounded and realistic sci-fi that has similar vibes to Space Brothers while being a bit less nerdy and much more dramatic about it. The first half is mostly episodic, while the second half has a fairly connected plot with some romance sprinkled in towards the end. It is definitely a character-focused show, but still manages to touch on some really interesting socio-political points (in the vibe of Star Trek like I mentioned earlier.)

Nope, this is quite a bit older than that
Yeah, this style is a lot older than Gunslinger Girl.
I’d say around mid 90s?

Damn… with that artstyle I would have expected it to be older! 
Especially with the “quite a bit older” than Gunslinger Girl, which aired in '03.

Ahh, my bad… It’s older but I thought (sorry for not looking it up) that GG aired much more recent.
It did have an OVA and second season in '08, maybe that’s more along the lines of what you were thinking?
