i'm watching E7 currently and it's pretty good. it's very good with music cues to the point where it sometimes feels like it's being carried by them

it seems a significant portion of E7 stuff has been purged from youtube including one of my favorite musical tracks from it that only plays during the last episode(Rainbow by Denki Groove) since I last looked up E7 stuff on there. definitely grab the soundtrack if you're able, one of my all time favorite anime OSTs.

Rainbow is probably my favorite track from it, but Sprinting Spirits and Final Wish are really drat powerful tracks too, Final Wish gives me chills every time I hear it. E7's soundtrack is mostly known for the OPs and EDs and techno, but the orchestral stuff is phenomenal too. just an amazing soundtrack overall.

I never watched AO, heard it was a trainwreck so skipped it. Is the soundtrack to that comparable to E7, or did that fall flat too?

well looking for a Denki Groove song seems like a slightly more difficult task after Pierre Taki was arrested for cocaine use and erased from existence in Japan

people who liked 7 seem to hate everything that came after but it's difficult to get much of an answer why

i didn't think 7 was god's gift and is just a nice modern (then) pastiche of older mecha that has its own issues, so all the sequel stuff seems like it'd go over better

There's also not that much mecha in E7 really. It has kind of a meandering start that goes into a romance/coming of age story.
Looking back I think it's more the general atmosphere it managed to create and having the small core cast of weirdo characters bouncing around in that, that made it work.

Ao ends by giving the characters a plot device weapon designed to erase the series from existence lol.

The first movie is a clip episode that tries to rearrange the clips into a different story.

I don't know a whole lot about the E7 sequels, but I think it's kinda similar to how people feel about Nadesico: the original wasn't super groundbreaking but was a well-done tale with a generally optimistic outlook, and then it got a bunch of weird sequel stuff with a much darker tone that kinda stomped all over what people loved about the original.

they're, kinda different situations. eureka seven's sequel stuff is tonally weird and basically disconnected from the original story at this point. nadesico's continuations are, half untranslated saturn and dreamcast video games and half a movie that honestly does have plenty of jokes that are more characteristic of the series and honestly isn't that much darker... but it also basically torches what made characters like akito endearing and, is an unfinished cliffhanger ending to the series, that will never be officially resolved. nadesico is, way more infuriating just by nature of how much it leaves literally everything hanging. in like, a way that's actively bizarre cause everything it sets up, is resolved at the end. but akito just leaves. he just leaves before the story can end so they can have a hook about needing to find akito.

i think if prince of darkness had an actual ending it'd still be kinda polarizing but, it at least wouldn't feel like they just continued the story directly into absolutely literally nothing

Have you read Hakumei and Mikochi? It's another kind of rural slice of life manga that's really good (imho, it's like my favorite manga).

It doesn't retcon it at all, it just uses its story as a story. At the time I liked Pocketful of Rainbows/Good Night, Sleep Tight, Young Lovers (I wonder why they changed the title for the English language release) for being a commentary on compilation movies and franchises as a whole, but between its own cynicism and the way later E7 stuff didn't really build on that I've gone off it since.
