When it aired, I loved it. It became my top 1, out of the ~450 I had seen at the time. There are only two problems I can think of that I wouldn’t argue against - First, the plot holes left unfilled by the anime. Shounens generally have trash plot anyway, so that’s nothing new. Second, apparently some people were hyped about it, which is stupid. I never saw any hype before it started airing though, so I can’t say if that is true or not.
The world was good. Animation was good. Music was good. The main cast was well-placed (especially Shu and Inori.) The arcs were all great up until the final one, and the VN brings it all to an amazing conclusion.
Plus, I loved Shu. He was cute.
I hate mecha anime though, so I might just like it because it managed to get past that hatred. I still like it though.
