I was pretty fond of Space:AAB. Still am. I didn't mind what everyone seems to refer to as "soapy" as it wasn't nearly as shallow or poorly written character stories as soaps are...and I grew up on a lot of anime, which gets into character drama a lot, even in the good sci-fi shooters. I was not at all happy with the last few episode leading up to the end though...and I did not like the way it ended at all. If it hadn't been on following football and unable to maintain a viewer base because of constant schedule changes, I thought the show would have gone much farther. In some respects it reminded me of BSG, and in others Full Metal Jacket. I never liked the capital ships for either side, but the fighters were sweet.
