As long as the story unveils you start to realize that this will be a mixture of different themes and that won't really make a lot of sense; that can make you really uncomfortable since you can't piece things together very well which will make you find a lot of uncoherences beetwen the story, thats why you have to try hard to understand it, and that process won't be interesting at all, it can sometimes get irritating.
The Art its something else, i found it great, clarity on every aspect that you see and beautifully done. As i told you before this show mixes a lot of things so... there will be mechas and sometimes the movement applied to them can be awkward; thats why in my opinion it is not outstanding.
The Sound by the other hand, was something i really enjoyed, most part of my feelings and sensations came thanks to the mix between the sound and the situation wihch made me forget from time to time about the clumsy story.
Talking about the characters ill tell you something, there will be always that wall that will not allow you to fully compenetrate because you will not be able to naturally see them evolve, it's like the characters are imposing their changes to you instead of flowing naturally but... that doesn't exempt the fact that sometimes even more towards the ending you can find those moments on where you can compenetrate.
With the awkward story and somewhat strange character development some of the twists they tried to make and some of the situations that nailed what i was slowly expecting once i started to watch (not before as i said i came with no expectations) and adding the fact that i liked the music a lot i can say that i enjoyed this... maybe it was the art and the music afterall what made me stay.
If you enjoy a colorful, clear, well animated battle you will like those moments and embrace them on your journey through this one.
