I was a huge fan of the original series back when it was airing, and despite the plot amour and everything it still was one of my favorite series. Unfortunately after the first series the quality went downhill. The plot amour is at stupid ridiculous levels in this anime. I swear someone dies every episode just to come back to life (this applies to the villains as well). It really takes meaning away from the fights and the sacrifices.
If you are a fan of the series you will still find great enjoyment in watching it but its definitely not the same as the first series. Also the author is a huge pervert and it really shows. Sometimes I think I`m actually watching a henti rather than a shounen (the innuendos are everywhere).
