Ah Neptunia, Compa's Otaku Bait Cash Cow Franchise. For those of you unaware, Neptunia is basically game consoles as girls. And that's basically it.
Really, just like the games, there really is nothing to this anime. There is no plot to this. Most of the anime is just fanservice that's just there to pander to the audience, and aside from that there's nothing special about this. Fight scenes are so-so, VA is passable (Compa's is terrible as usual), "serious" scenes are cringe-worthy and some of the jokes are just unfunny.
So, is this anime worth watching? If you took a look at my "Favorite Anime" list on my profile, you'd see this anime listed right smack dab in the middle of it. Yes, go watch this anime. I highly recommend it. Now this isn't me being sarcastic, there's just something about this anime that I enjoy to it.
It's not easy to describe. Maybe it's how cheerful and lighthearted the general atmosphere is; Maybe it's the appeal of seeing Iris Heart going S over everyone; Maybe it's Vert's Gainaxing; Maybe it's fun to see the cast transform. I dunno, this anime does all the major things poorly but does all the little things so well. I don't care why no males aside from one guy seem to exist in the universe, I don't care how the logistics of the universe works. Just turn off your brain and enjoy what is quite possibly the best "So Bad, It's Good" anime I've seen in years.
A definite guilty pleasure of mine.
3/10 (Biased score : 8/10)
Also Rei is just a great character.
