Pretty damn good ending for a show of this type.

Didn't cop out, didn't make up some last minute BS.

Quite good, I thought it was going to be some nonsensical ending like NGE but thankfully it doesn't, though it's not epic enough, especially with that Black Fafner, suddenly disappeared just like that.

I didn't really enjoy it THAT much. Stupid, heck even retarded decisions were made throughout the show and the idea behind it all was stupid as well, an evolved species that tried to understand the species of the planet, what do they do? They fucking "create" hideous monsters and kill people by basically ehm, whatever the hell they are doing.

It was enjoyable from time to time when it didn't involve decision making.

6/10

I was very pleased by this show, it had some sloppy execution at points and it could have explained things in a more timely fashion especially mir, but i really liked the oppressive tone the show had and its focus on the importance of life and death, it was a very brutal series all things considered and highly depressing at points. The final was pretty great from ep 21 -25/26 and while i feel like the final battle was a bit lacking the ending was satisfying, and im glad they decided to not BS a happy ending on us as the bittersweet one we got where both tsubaki and soushi fade away is more touching and memorable.

Overall id say the series is a 7, i wanted to give it a 8 but its problems do hold it back, still im pleased with the show in the end and thats all that matters to me

Jizzy as you would call yourself because youre a dick The most butthurt award goes to you And clearly you havent watched that many shows thats why you cant determine if a show is unique or not Or maybe you're just a child who likes common stuffs where hero saves the day and guys gets all the girls. Sad taste you have there kid you came up to me in the first place making you look more like a kid who got slapped without me even knowing it and start crying about it to me

Many doubts are a partial answer, but there are also some small doubts that are created or can not find a satisfactory answer, the fact is that this final episode proves so poetic and charming in certain situations.
Only fault not having a counterpart graphics much more beautiful, but you can also defer on this point.
Narrative that always gave the feeling of having a slow pace, but I think you could not do without.
Plot that resembles that of souls that have preceded it, but in a certain way still managed to stand out a bit.
Overall it is enjoyable, if you have the patience to understand and accept a pace not priprio engaging.
The story seems to be well structured, if you analyze the material that has been achieved so far, is to be understood not only this first season, but what came after it.
Ultimately I would give as a final grade 7.5 / 10!

Now step right to the movie and resume the second season, just so I can better understand the plot.

Vastly mediocre, especially the first half...picked up a little bit toward the end, but still thought the ending was underwhelming.

6/10

I enjoyed the show. But it wasn't a classic. Just above average. People died, the enemy outclassed the human race and as said above the show had this dark oppressive theme going. A 7/10 score from me.

I liked the first half of the season more. The second half had too much comedy and happy moments.

7/10

Looking forward to the movie.

I both liked it and found it exhausting to watch. It's one bleak series but lots of cool ideas. Curious what comes next.

Hell yeah, that's a finale. Tsubaki's scenes made me sad, especially since her VA died last year. Hit all the harder. Loved it. But I have to say, I'd have been so pissed if they had ended it all here. Thank God the franchise went on. Right Of Left, here I come. 10/10 for me. I have nothing to complain about. Finished it about a week. Would have finished faster, but had to go to work.
