looking back it really wasn't that bad
>>283506671Actually you're right, it was garbage
>>283506671Episode 1-15 = Eureka SevenEpisode 16-22= Astral Ocean Episode 23-24=Hi-Evolution
>>283506671First half ain't bad and it was fun watching it with /a/ while airing but it's undeniable the second half is like watching a train wreck in slomo.
it was never badyou fell for the raids
>>283506671I dropped this after ep 15, so I got the best possible experience out of it.
>>283506671It was good, obviously. The fights were fun there were some interesting sci-fi concepts, the last mecha's design was super cool. Unfortunately it attracted retards and they cried about the relationship stuff.
It's good from beginning to end
>>283506742fippy bippy, especially the last 1/3
>>283506671I was on board with it until episode 18. Everything after that was shit. The director even knew it was shit, you can see it in the way he talked about it in the special episode interviews he did.
It was a great 16 ep anime.
>>283506983Well they literally say in the special episode that they only wrote a script through episode 15. Everything after that was made on the fly. Incidentally why Trigger leaves
>>283506671IT WAS A FUCKING TRAINWRECK
>>283506671I watch for she
>>283507263One of the best villains in all anime, that's for sure. The seethe she caused was the stuff of legends.
>>283506671Maybe like the first half but it tanks really hard after that.
before I started watching seasonal anime again this, My Dress-Up Darling and Franken Fran were one singular blob in my mind and I couldn't remember which was whichas disappointed as I was that they didn't actually adapt Fran's manga, Marin is still a sweetheart and her show is greatbut what about this? what the fuck is that plot I just read?
>>283506671It had its moments, but no it really was that bad. The tween back and forth drama was dumb and added nothing to the show. All of the side characters have tons of screentime wasted on their development that goes literally nowhere, especially the midget Z fuck who got an ENTIRE episode only to side with Papa out of fear.Everything up to 15 could be salvaged. The slice of life episodes after that were honestly great, but they happened too late in the show's run and destroyed the pacing of the ending. Again removing that tween drama shit like episode 14 would let the 15 climax happen several episodes earlier to fix all of that.The ending in the last quarter was irredeemable dogshit and would have to be entirely rewritten. Even the most generic kid revolution plot would have been magnitudes better.Also Hiro is a gigachad sociopath, he's much crazier than 02, and he's based. He had to spend his entire life naming and tard wrangling all of the NPC children around him, and he did it with a smile. It's hilarious how watching the show as it aired really made you think that he was secretly some scheming mastermind, when it was entirely unintentional because the writers had no clue what they were doing. Him being insane would have been better.>hiro the adults are gone, we're running out of drinking water, the cucked fatty is unable to eat, and my hair is falling out!>yeah isn't 02 great?
>>283506671all the ingredients for good anime, splattered across the kitchen floor...
>>283506671It implied gay sex so it was fine just because of that.
