I've watched this as a kid and still remember the highlights of the story. Comparing it to Eva is pretty dumb tbh, like the themes and appeal aren't even similar. Cliche and predictable is like: what? The direction of the story was given from the first few episodes, there's nothing to predict there. Unless you predicted the "events" that lead to it? Just because a concept overlap like bestfriends fighting each other makes it cliche? CG has a lot of similarities to Death Note, the most note worthy is that their second half was a car crash but the former perfectly paralleled park while the latter just crashed. Still, people love them regardless of the flaws, they choose to see the highlights instead of the questionable parts, which is why they're highly regarded in the community. I can't believe someone would actually rate erased 8 and this a 6 and 4, tough times.

As much as people like to shit on the second half of Death Note, I can't see why you would dislike the ending as well. Even someone like me, who is a massive fan of the series, thinks that the second half is inferior to the first one (although not as much as most others say), but the ending is still easily one of my favorite moments in all of media. It felt like a very natural conclusion to me that didn't leave any room for qualms whatsoever.

I did like the last scene and the way it concluded but the ending revolved around N which is an inferior character to L but still managed to delivered mate in a 5d chess. It's like when the best player in chess losses to a filler player.

Ah, I see. I understand what you meant by that now. And yeah, I kinda agree with you, but that ending is still masterful to me.

Yeah, it's average. It says a lot about the anime community in general that such bad writing as Code Geass is generally considered a masterpiece
But nagatoro and one room are a masterpiece
