Oh yeah, there's also the problem that equally-mysterious all-mechanical life forms called Kill-T-Gang coming from Uranus are invading Earth for...something. Yep, sounds just like your average anime about a kid from high school piloting a giant robot in order to save Earth.

'''Captain Earth''' is a HumongousMecha anime from Creator/StudioBones and the team behind Anime/StarDriver.

A second-year high school student named Daichi Manatsu spots a weird circular rainbow floating around above Tanegashima Island on TV on the eve of his summer vacation, noting that he's seen it before. Getting a bad feeling about the whole thing, he moves it by himself to Tanegashima Island, which houses Japan's Tanegashima Space Center. When he gets there, a 17-year-old guy named Teppei Arashi asks why Daichi has returned to the island. Daichi replies that he came back to fulfill a promise.

Thinking of other mysteries including his dad's accidental demise and the memories of other weird boys and girls he met when he was a kid, Daichi arrives at the island loaded with overwhelming emotions, and as alarms sound at the center, he finds a giant robot known as "Earth Engine."

Oh yeah, there's also the problem that equally-mysterious all-mechanical life forms called Kill-T-Gang coming from Uranus are invading Earth for...something. Yep, sounds just like your average anime about a kid from high school piloting a giant robot in order to save Earth.
