| Cliché cast of characters, but probably the best fight scenes I've seen in a mecha, at least in a very long time..so that makes up for that. 7/10 |
 "To be yourself in a world that is constantly trying to make you something else is the greatest accomplishment" |
| 8/10 would've been 10/10 if I was 12 years old for sure can't wait for 2nd season... |
 |
| Part of me actually wanted Izuru to die :3 I think that would be a much more befitting ending for this anime since he had that death flag over him for pretty much half the anime. It'll also make it quite a moving and touching anime having the hero die in battle for the future of humanity. |
 |
| the ending suck.. |
 |
| Not bad still waiting for the 2nd season and i can say the best mecha that airs from Spring 2013. |
 |
| Where is the second season already? So many loose ends, from whether Teoria's crazy brother survived and what her kingly big brother is going to do now and to who is Julia, what happened to her and what is the relationship between Simon and Teoria (I'm under the impression that she's in something like love with him? And technically they do have at least 1 shared child - Izuru...) |
| ったく、嫌な世の中だよ。 |
| Tbh, this seems to be leading to a Kei x Izuru ending. This last episode has more hints and any of the episodes so far. Kei convincing Izuru to stop fighting, barging in to save him, she screamed when she thought he died, and I love it how she's the only person who cried when everyone found out that Izuru is still alive. Heck, even her crew told her "be sure to win him over", and she went to save Izuru and tries to win him over. I can also see that Teoria or Simon will probably sacrifice themselves in the second or third season. I don't think Kei will end up with Izuru's brother since he seems to give up on her since episode 21. He knew that there's no way to win her heart since it belongs to Izuru so he even told her that he will protect Izuru to keep her happy. |

| I also think that Teoria is Izuru's biological mother and Juria is Asagi's mother. That means Izuru is part wulgaru. There's no way Teoria is Asagi's mother because if she was his mom, then he would be able to use the "awakening" power too. Plus remember in episode 2 when they took an examination for each pilot, and the Dr says that Izuru is different from others? That probably means hes part Wulgaru. Only Wulgaru can awaken the power thingy. That is my evidence. Looks like the Izuru x Teoria can't happen cuz that's just creepy. Mom x Son relationship |
| Aside from the abrupt ending, this conclusion was really attention grabbing and kept me completely enthralled until the final moment. The use of the 1st OP at the very end really helped enhance that moment of suspense as to whether or not Izuru was alive (which considering this show's track record, seemed obvious). Although when it showed him in his cockpit not moving, I was starting to go "wait...he's...is he?" As a whole I have to say I'm extremely surprised by how much I ended up enjoying this. Based on the first episode, I had thought that this was either going to take me considerable time to get through or I would have passed up on it altogether. The campy mecha atmosphere really grew on me overtime. Although the cringe worthy dialogue was something that kept me laughing out of disbelief (such as Ange's trash talking). It's ironic how Team Rabbit was notorious for individual skills yet horrible teamwork. In contrast to this, I found that although none of the characters stood out to me individually, as a set they really made for some hilarious and fun moments. I'm not well versed enough in mecha to say this with complete confidence, but this seemed like a fair textbook example of the genre. I welcome a continuation as the Wulgaru king implies that the hunt will continue on in some new form and there are plenty of potential loose ends that could use tying up. Although with that said, if this turns out to be the true ending then I can at least say that the journey here was fun even if the destination is lacking. The visuals were awesome and this is some of the most intense and adrenaline pumping mecha fighting I've seen in anime, particularly Jiart vs Izuru moments. 7/10 |

| I still think best-girl Teoria did this to help her own. They seemed to be stagnating, but this opened a new route for them (somehow). Above average episode (for this series). I was kind of laughing at all the false-sacrifices. (This series had such poor characterization.) 4/10 (below average) overall |
  |
| I enjoyed watching this anime... it lacks a bit of "oomph" (can't really explain it, lol) but it was consistently good towards the end. Hoping for a 2nd season! |
 . . . . . ✘ . . . . .DO NOT touch my rice. . . . . . I'm Asian. . . . . . |
| They really Coordinate the Fights between those 2 well. I mean...I have to say this is one of the 1st CGI mecha i've seen To actually fights epic , super fast paced actions , team working instead of 1 super op character etc etc. to not suck by the end of it's series. 8/10 Impressive "Mecha" show! hopes it makes it to SRW franchises! |
| Front Hooks...Oh yeah... |
| The characters in this show really stood out to me. The way they actually act like friends, ribbing each other but obviously really caring about one another. From the beginning they act like kids who've known each other a long time, and it feels natural. Also, the show has a retro feel, especially with the kinds of strategies they employ to beat the enemy. Zippy, flashy fights, but the end result is always pure brute strength. A lot of little things bring this from an 8 to a 9 for me. Just a really fun, endearing mecha show. |
| pretty surprised by the series as a whole. awesome mecha fight scenes, so so plot, bad character dev. i was actually hoping the other bots would awaken but nah, its just the hero that gets the treatment. |
| anime/manga version of steam would be awesome - https://myanimelist.net/forum/?topicid=1625396 |
| Who is Julia anyway? Simon's deceased wife, I would think, but that's just a guess. The movie could potentially elaborate on their relation. Izuru is in rough shape after all that battling, even if he is still alive. Remains to be seen if he'll be jumping right back into combat again. This anime is just spectacular, with enjoyable and progressively developed characters, immersive group interactions, and perfectly choreographed mecha combat. Even the humour—which is something I didn't go in watching it for—had enough dynamism to keep it consistently fresh throughout, never feeling out of place. Can't conceive of any flaws at all, which is just astonishing. |
