| The ending itself was pretty epic, and the series itself was very entertaining and I liked a lot of the characters (Andy, Mix, Yunoha, Jin, Zessica, etc). This show COMPLETELY failed though in terms of its main pairing and female lead. Amata isn't groundbreaking but I somewhat like him when he's not screaming MIKONO-SAN and angsting, but Mikono herself? No thanks. Absolutely 100% USELESS up until the end. God, she just really, really sucks. If this was an actual likable pairing, this finale would have me fuck yeah-ing all over the place. Since I truly dislike the pairing? Ugh. 7/10. |
| It feels like they are throwing whatever shit they have to finish this last episode.. I mean where's the conclusion for Amata and Kagura? It's like nothing happened between them after their last fight.. Shall give this series 7/10, mainly for Andy x Mix stuff.. It's like I enjoyed them better than the main characters in this series.. |
| For the past few episodes, this series has gone extremely downhill for me. Even so, just the HINT at KaguraxZessica at the end helped for the ending. I really appreciated that as they got so much shit for the past 26 weeks with my least favorite characters frolicking around. (Amata and Mikono) However I kinda liked Amata this episode, he actually bitched about loving Mikono and did something successful about it. Glad Mix got her boobs back. ^^ Seeing Sharde for the finale was nice too, I wish we got something of Jin.. I still hate that he died. Overall rating? 7/10 and that's only for the side characters. Ok. 7.5 Because sassy Mikage is sassy. And I loved that. |

| I don't know, after soo much episode i just couldn't bring myself to like the two main couples, instead i was rooting for Zessica and Kagura Not really my piece of cake with love and all those stuff so 6/10 |
 |
| Lol'@ the priceless expressions when the commander volunteers to be the pilot. And oh..permission from Zessica to get a room for Amata and Mikono?! One of the best mecha series I've seen recently. Excellence: 9/10 ^_^ |

 |
| I liked when it was only weird. When the plot really began it's started to get boring. The final episode had a cool battle, but that was it. LOVE BACKWARDS is okay. |
| Wow nice ending! Glad to see that Amata and Mikono end up together and Kagura and Zessica accepted that. But I still don't understand why Appolonius left Silvia 12K years ago and let Apollo be with her, I was hoping that they would explain that when Fudou said it's time to learn the truth to Mikono, but what we get is about Mikage's deep love to Appolonius... Seriously there's no truth in that, that's a common knowledge. Anyway, nice ending 10/10 for this episode and 6/10 for the series because for all the trolling they give us. Also, Fudou keep becoming a troll even at the end, way to go to destroy a touching reunion scene lol. |

| i feel so stupid...when they switch evol to love...*facepalm. The ending was pretty epic. I really wanted amata to fuse back with kaguara and show some dbz action.... but oh well. Really enjoyed watching the last episode but fudo is such a joy kill like come on really? REALLY? I also thought at some point Shush was going to be another plot twist....lol |
| Well it was good anime, I think that fisrt season was better though, probably because both seasons seemed to say story differently and i liked first version more then altered later one. overall 7/10 Sent with Mal Updater |
( Currently interested in OP MC genre. Recommendations are welcomed, preferable those yet not on my list ) |
| Stunning artwork was the only reason i watched this show to the last episode. Story is braindead, as well as characters. It's the perfect example of a show that has high visual quality and low everything else. 5/10 |
| It's good to see Amata act like a real man, and Kagura able to acknowledge it.. Very good ending, too bad Amata's parents have to die after just meeting them :( Well i guess Mix is becoming a woman again? Her Big Bang is now growing! :D |
| Well I liked this ending and thought it ended pretty well. That last fight was great in that Amata never gave up and showed that true lovee prevail at the end lols. I am very glad that Zessica got outta there alive and that she was able to support Amata till the end. Also good to see that Kagura realize that his love because of fate was nothing compared to what Amata felt. And finally Mikono and Amata are able to be together cementing their love for each other. Nice happy end. On other notes, idk how Mix is starting to regrow her big bangs but thats fine with me. Mikono looks so much better with her hair down. And I've gotta say I really loved the music in this anime besides that Yunoha ED song. |

Raigerzero said: I don't think so. Zessica and Kagura, my (and for many others) favorite characters, have much more interesting personalities and general character and are WAY more devoted and deserving of their target love interest (albeit said interests are super boring and flat) Zessica yes, but Kagura didn't deserve since he only loved fictional Silvie/dead for 12k years Sylvia. Raigerzero said: Number two: Evol is Love. Face it, everybody know this will happen in last episode. Anime was corny since beginning. |
 |
| Evol is as much of a disappointment as it's prequel. How the hell did Kagura and Amata make up so fast. They were at each other's throats in episode 24 and just suddenly becomes best friends the following episode without any real development. Not to mention, Kagura was completely in love with Mikoto and saying he can't live without her for the entire series and then just gave up on her on the last episode like it was nothing. Somehow, the happy ending just reminds me of the prequel - rushed and extremely cheesy. |
 |
| Such a disappointing ending... why would Kagura, the reincarnation of a dog, and main antagonist for most of the serie just help Amata to get with Minori in the end? |
 |
| Evol started out pretty well. It knew not to take itself too seriously. It had it's flaws back then too, but it was still fun and enjoyable. However, when the second half came along everything took a nosedive. Characters, storyline, writing, etc. Sure the production values were still there, especially with the finale but it when I take away the finale, which was pretty solid. Now it still had the ongoing issues that I mentioned earlier and last minute changes to 2 certain characters personalities. Overall it was decent. Production values were there, but everything else like story, characters, writing, etc. still the same mess. As a series, Evol is a disappointment. |
| must...need...SECOND SEASON!!!!! with more intense kagura x mikono luv~ |

| Aquarion LOVE LOL? that was predictable. and yeah the old guy was Apollonius. figures. somehow he doesn't mind his dog getting his woman. Still hate the Mikono and her being with Amata. I guess poor Zessica gets with Kagura ..... who is Amata anyway. Oh and WHY IS KAGURA all of a sudden nice? he gives up like nothing and changes personality like nothing? Oh and apparently Mix became a chick again thankfully. What about the rest of Altair? None of that is explained? It wasn't bad, but I really disliked the 2nd half of the season. Still plot holes, and unexplained parts. Still hate Mikono. Still hate Kagura. Still hate Mikage. Oh well. I would have liked to give it a 6-7, but I'm just sticking a 5 there. |

First: Amata was reincarnation of Apollo and Kagura was Amata's dark half. Second: Mykage was main antagonist. Third: Mikono and stupid plot. lolLIPopsz said: must...need...SECOND SEASON!!!!! with more intense kagura x mikono luv~ LOL. Mikono wouldn't have reason to reincarnate. mystik said: Oh and WHY IS KAGURA all of a sudden nice? he gives up like nothing and changes personality like nothing? Yes, it would be better if they explained it in something like - Mykage taking all his magic mindfucks out of him to left him without his Sylvie(fake) memories. |

| A lot of people misinterpret what 'dark' self means. He's not evil or anything, it's like a picture in negative, your traits but only reversed which is a very philosophical eastern idea of ying yang that complement the same thing. In their last gattai they realized they were pretty much the same, Kagura was passionate and hid his softer core. Amata was gentler and hid his rough edges. |
| i actually prefer zessica over mikono. any who, was mykage a guy or girl? seems like some boys love action going on. |

Angel_Beats said: i actually prefer zessica over mikono. any who, was mykage a guy or girl? seems like some boys love action going on. Hes a she again. Mix had Boobs again and implants cant fake those things. I enjoyed the series and upset the apollo was not apollonius. But the way he acted made sense that he was the dog. But gen/zen being the real apollonius was a shocker. He decided to surrender let his love find a new life so she could be happy and he became the earths guardian. It does and doesn t make sense all at the same time. Like with Gurren Lagan. But I will say this it was a great anime none the less. I like how the pulled it off because that dog was always in the pictures so it made it plausable. Still would have liked that Apollo was Apollonius but it makes sense when you put the fact from the first series and this one that Apollo was never Apollonious. and the real Apollonious never died like Touma didn't. Also the companion must have been created by apollonious so in a sense He was a part of Apollonious. But the original never died bet celine and pollon did. So they were reincarted on the illiusion Apollonious created. He began the worlds guardian so that his compaion would fufill his love. But the wings of apollonious disapeared but were not returned to his original owner but the companion which explains why Amatas red wings. |

 |
| -Am I the only one who actually liked the Amata x Mikono pairing? -Well, to be completely honest, I was fond of Zessica, and thought that it would be nice if she went with Amata. -Unfortunately, I then thought that she wouldn't win because she isn't the main heroine, so I decided to stick with the main pair (Yes, it's completely possible to "shift" shipping). -Generally, I think that this show was absolutely awesome and orgasmic and I really enjoyed it. -In the end, the whole story of the two anime was just Apollonius trolling around and not accepting Toma. Well, Zen was still damn awesome for the whole show. -The music (especially the first OP) being used in the most suitable situations is also what makes this anime so wonderful. -Also, the absolutely magnificent mecha-action and absurdity (of course, in a good way) that reminds me of Gurren Lagann and such. -It might not please some fans, but putting Zessica and Kagura together was the best thing the producers could do (and to be honest, I despise NTR, which contributed to me liking the main pair more). -Now, there were many flaws with this show. Pointing out some of the most prominent ones: -Amata contradicting himself. He went all like "screw fate and destiny!", but in the end it turned out that he was the original half of Apollo, meaning he was still destined to be with Mikono all along. Though it still proved his determination, since he probably didn't realize he was the (half) reincarnation of Apollo by the time he got into this fate and destiny depression. -Then there's Kagura's wtf sudden change of heart. He suddenly turned all nice guy and gave up Mikono, who he yearned for so much the past 25 episodes, to his hated rival, all because his love was stronger. As much as I like Amata x Mikono, I think that was pretty crap. It was as if all his efforts through the entire show had all gone to waste. Kagura is a very interesting character, quite possibly the most badass out of the whole series. I don't think it's logical that the writers could just write him out like that (same with Zessica, who loved Amata with all she had). -It might be interesting to point out, just how did Mix get her BIG BANGS back? Has the disease not gone past the point of no return? So it's just temporary? -Even with all those flaws (and many more, too), Aquarion EVOL still remains as one of my favorite shows of this year, absolutely. I believe most people believed that it started off well, and had a huge budget, before crashing horribly just like how Guilty Crown did. But for me, the enjoyment and the fact that my favorite couple got together in the end really was what made this show special. Hate this show as much as you guys want, but it won't change the fact that this will be an unforgettable show of ecstasy that will forever be etched in my memory. |

| Totally unexpected ending, but I kinda foreseen it. Since apollo is not the real apollonius it means the real one Might be Free from romantic pairing. Knowing that fact I watch with content and acceptance the cliche story of apollo and slyvia (lost interest at apollo and mikage pairing). Though my otp shrade and cayennne died, I'm very happy that Toma's thousand years of Love and longing has finally come into fruition. Woooot! My hunch that it might be Fudo was bulls eye. And I totally ship the two. And what I love most is that... the Gay love story of Toma is a HAPPY ENDING! Even though it took (2) anime seasons of betrayal and heartache but still, his unwavering gay love prosper in a so-called straight anime!! omfg, I'm really so happy for him! *bursting in happiness* note worthy: the woman who was apollonius love ended up with a dog spirit (pfff)... seriously, this anime loves my kind(yaoi fan). ps. I watched this anime for BL scenes, and boy! didn't disappoint and I was totally pleased!! |

Dr_Smurph said: I have to say the saddest story here is the truth of Fudou. His love fell in love with a dog...twice and he just watched He didn't mind because he loved Celianne, not her reincarnations. |
|
| Cheesy until the end XD I kinda missed all that cheese in the last few episodes, but they brought it back in this one so it's all good. I like how Amata and Mikono ended up together <3 It's sad for Zessica though...and Kagura? Sorry, his change of heart just came out of nowhere and doesn't make sense at all. "Oh Amata really loves Mikono, more than I love her. I respect Amata now and must support them!" Of course, Kagura didn't really say that, but still, it was too much of a stretch after all the, oh I don't know, 20+ episodes of Kagura going on and about his smelly wench and destiny. Meh. However, I still enjoyed this anime overall. It was hilarious for the most part, and I liked many of the characters. I also enjoyed being trolled when it was revealed that Apollo=Pollon. Most of all, I enjoyed the orgasmic Unions LOL |
| The camp and corniness came back which was a welcome thing. This series was at it's best when not taken seriously. Mix and Andy are back together and she got her bangs back. The death toll was lower than expected too. Zessica and Kagura's reactions to Amata/Mikono after 25 episodes were pretty ridiculous, but I guess to be expected. |

| Awww, I guess I'm one of the few people who liked the ending even though I have a strong huge of dislike when it comes to wimpy female leads. :D (Anyways, that kiss is pretty nice) I think one of the main problems why most of the people didn't like the ending is the fact that they made Zessica a better character than her winning rival in love which is Mikono, obviously (which is why people like/favored her more than Mikono)+Plus, how they tortured and made Zessica suffer in the past episodes. If the writers hate Zessica that much, they should've switched her personality with Mikono's or atleast, make Mikono a better & likeable character than Zessica, most of the people wouldn't probably have any problems with how the way it ended. And hopefully, Zessica will get a happy ending with Kagura in the future. She can't be forever single and forever inlove with Amata anyways. c: Ending was satisfying and I enjoyed watching the series. 8/10 |

| All the butthurt... :D Most of you missed the creators' concept for the Aquarion series. Just like SnA, a parody of the super robot genre of the 80's and the mecha genre of the early 90's, EVOL is also a parody - a series that mocks the "love story" of teen pilots prevalent in this generation's mecha shows. The REAL love story that actually matters in the whole franchise was the fated Apollonius and Touma. I think this concept or "trolling" was brilliant since teenage love hardly lasts when compared to the 24,000 years of love and hate between soulmates. I still wonder how most long time fans thought that the "Song of Genesis" pertains to Apollonius and Celiane when the lyrics didn't reflect the relationship of these two at all. Hell, the creator have to explicitly show the viewers they're mistaken in the movie just to set them straight and perhaps erase the 12,000 year old Apollonius/Celiane "romanticized love story" (and its connection from Apollo's and Silvia's love story) from their minds. |
