Oh my god, I hated this anime so fucking much. Seriously, watching this put me off anime for months.
...okay, that was pretty harsh. But seriously, I don't know what it was, but I just couldn't enjoy this. I got about 19 episodes in before I asked myself why I was still watching. There was just something about I found boring as all get out. I was just watching, and watching, and watching, just hoping that somewhere along the line, I'd actually develop some amount of interest in what was going on, but the fucking plot never really got going, and if it did later on, well, that's way too damned late. The whole experience really did put me off anime for some time, until I finally ended up watching
The Legend of Korra a few weeks ago. That sort of counts, anyway.
Course, this is all my opinion, and something tells me that I'm in the minority. It's not really a horrible anime by any means, and I wouldn't really urge people not to see it. The character's are likable enough, if a bit cliche, and it boasts some pretty cool animation. It just wasn't my cup of tea.
Oh, and on a more positive note, the soundtrack by Yoko Kanno is fucking awesome. I loved the opening theme,
Stray, especially.
