I don't usually write reviews 'cause I believe in watching first, then judging.
Well, let me tell you this. I watched it. The whole lot of 25 episodes of wasted potential.
I'll try to make it short -unlike Bones did with this show- so you don't have to waste more time if you're already interested in watching this.
1. Plot: Lousy piece of crap. Was a Clicheton, or a Cliche-fest, in the wrong way, not in the funny way. Every character is poorly developed and wasted on clichés made up to interest some audience. It was like they targeted every demographic and ended captivating none. Because of
...
this, the plot is all over the place, there's no argument that sticks with the show for the entire season, and the arc are so poorly designed and developed that it can be compared with a more episodic stuff like... you know like what. The first episodes can catch real quick, the rest just hang on to you like leeches, sucking your life bit by bit with its endlees plotwist that can be seen from space. There where a ton, and I really mean a ton of things that got left out of the entire plot, things that common sense dictates that are relevant.
2. Animation: Awesome, outstanding, kind of the best out there, somewhat comparable with some Production I.G works. Well, Studio Bones was on par with this show when looking back on his previous works. I mean, the mecha design resembles a tad to Heroman, but yeah, it looked cool. After all, according to the Studio's Director, their animators drew it all by hand, there was practically no CGI, if none. Kudos to them.
3. Sound: good music, everything seemed to go with the mood... nothing memorable. At least they didn't screw up this one.
4.- Character: yada yada yada, theres no originality in this characters and even the stereotypes are bad done. There's little-to-no development, and their roles where so messed up I couldn't even bother to remember the names past the first two or three episodes, since there's so many and you see little of them. It I could score this segment, I'd give it a -0.01.
5. Enjoyment (and overall): a Studio Bones work to forget. They've done some pretty amazing shows in the past, but this isn't something you can call out among the rest of other awesome anime and say: you should be watching this or that, 'cause Studio Bones.
I pretty much ended watching this show out of commitment to the animators and the Studio previous work, and because of earning the right to argument my stuff correctly.
Seriously, don't watch it, even less marathon it, unless you don't have anything else to watch and you can watch it very episodicaly, like, one episode a month.
