Never in my days of being an anime watcher have I been so disappointed.
Not only did this anime start like its the second season and your supposed to know why and how Aliens, if they are even aliens, invaded.
There was no explanation. Just dialog. Lots of dialog that didn't make any sense at all. I suppose it would have made since if I saw the first season, oh wait this is the first season.
The characters are mostly all the same. Either loony, extremely emo, or just plain weird. If your looking to fall in love with a character or two, well guess again. Theres no character development. Like I said they expect you to know who they are and why they act like they do. This is the FIRST SEASON people.
When I got into the second season. I became even more frustrated cause I'm watching alot of action with no explanation. Then enter the smart Professor genius guy to give the main character a new and better Gundam err Fafner. Only to complicate the story even more. He's using all kinds of words and saying what they had to do to fix the world. Damn I wish I knew what he was talking about.
Of course its a Gundam rip off with Evengelion inspiration. But it fails to measure up to or even be compared to the great anime's that it obviously bit off of.
While I didn't dislike this series, I agree it was utterly confusing. No explanation at all, it creates questions rather than answering them.
But it's nice to watch if you like mechas and don't care too much about an not quite understandable plot line and an open end.
