I was always quite eager to see this series and I managed to pick the set up cheap fairly recently. I'm not the biggest fan of mecha anime but I've been keeping an open mind and have started to appreciate them a little more now, as long as they're done properly. This series has quite an adult feel to it, it can be fairly political and it doesn't rely massively on mecha action. It's a slow paced series, which I normally quite like but I must admit, at times it did become a little tedious. Overall, the story is fairly simple until the very final episode. I thought the final episode itself was excellent and made the series worth watching in the end. I think it's fair to say that I had high expectations going into this series (I'm not sure why exactly) and it didn't live up to them but it was a good, solid anime series, just nothing special. It had it's up's and down's, one minute I was getting really into the series, the next, I was losing interest slightly. I believe this is one of those series to forget you even have and then eventually, somewhere down the line, re-watch it again. I'm sure I'll appreciate it a little more the next time around.
