It seems I rate things at a much higher standard than most people- don't worry about it too much. I just see "5" as the absolute average, and try to keep my average rating accordingly. It seems to me that "average" should remain average, if I get an influx of decent shows my ratings are universally reduced, and vice-versa. In other words, just because something got a 5 doesn't mean I didn't enjoy it, it just means I enjoyed it an average amount compared to other anime or felt it had an average quality. Also, it might be noted that my favoritism isn't necessary related to quality, it's just what I enjoyed the most.

it's gets better as it goes as it kinda gets into it's grove with how it wants to work this premise. It's got a very "modern" feel to it, like some of Makoto Shinkai's works. I think you'd dig it. After you get used to the CG.
Marina is gorgeous and awesome. Just the same she is clearly on the bottom when it comes to dominance with her hot secretary :p. Nena IS pretty nuts but that adds another kind of charm :p. And it sure looks it. Partly makes me wonder how I missed it .__.
The only thing I'm gonna miss about Geass when it ends is Lelouch and C.C-sama :(. Shame neither of them have been getting the kind of treatment they deserve. but hey, there is always Setsuna and um....Felt :p?
That's what I want to know. I mean that's just horrible. And plus, why is everyone and their mother getting a geass now? It annoys me enough that I spend most of the series wishing for more geass users and we get more...all at the same bloody time. Gahh. Best part of this episode was the 00 season 2 commercial.
