(My first thought when reading the title is Three Body Problem, but of course you already read it) Some manga / anime recs:
- Planetes (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Planetes) is a hard scifi manga with anime adaptation about daily life of astronauts cleaning up space debris. It feels pretty grounded, you can feel how its like living in Earth orbit and Moon
- Space Brothers / Uchuu Kyodai (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Space_Brothers_(manga)) tells the story of a Japanese worker getting kicked out from his company and then he applied to JAXA, following his younger brother's footstep
Not manga/anime/books, but there's a Korean scifi movie at Netflix called Space Sweepers (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Space_Sweepers), similar to Planetes. What I found interesting is that they have people speaking different language, and you can hear their universal translator translating their conversation to their own languages. Different than western scifi where everyone speaks English
On this topic, there’s a fantastic movie on Netflix called “Space Sweepers” that I highly recommend.
This Korean movie on the topic was pretty good too:

This reminds me of the movie space sweepers, that used humans in ships rather than robots though.

If you haven already seen it, you might enjoy the Korean movie Space Sweepers. I think there's about a dozen spoken languages in the movie
I wonder if we will ever get to the space debris situation that is depicted in the movie Space Sweepers.
