In the past I tried some Mecha and I just could not digest anything but Code Geass. See even if you have cool robots, you've got to have a strong storyline to actually keep mature audiences entertained. Code Geass had one. I saw the rating of 8.95 on this website for TTGL and had high hopes for it, even if it was a Mecha that have fooled me before, I believed this one to be different. Boy was I fooled.
When you watch the first two episodes of TTGL you are absolutely thrilled with the story as it goes on. Two rebels among a society of compromised. The way things go, it would seem as if sky is the limit for their adventures, just like One Piece where sailing seems like the most wonderful thing ever since sliced bread. How ever I had to stop watching TTGL at 10th episode.
TTGL has a bit too much fun and very little substance in the plot. I cannot delve deep into the plot as I may end up writing spoilers, but the huge potential of anime was wasted on too many robots and little substance with the story. Since this is a small anime series unlike greats such as One Piece, there is too much battle in every episode and too little character development.
I don't understand how this anime is different from any other mecha for immature, I was fooled with the rating here. I know many will say this is shounen and I was supposed to watch it in the first place, sorry but HxH was shounen too and it had an epic storyline. TTGL is all about battles, if only they did not rush things and took it slowly by developing the plot I could have liked it.
