Aldnoah Zero - Remember Code Geass and its imitators, grand, theatrical mecha shows driven by manic twist-a-minute plotting as impossibly talented masterminds engage in scheme and counterscheme? Remember how they so often turn out dumb and creepy? Aldnoah is one of those, only with none of the skeeze, a tight, lean plot, and even better music and visuals. It's a summer blockbuster in all the best ways. poo poo, listen to this:

The soundtrack isn't bad, but I think Hiroyuki Sawano has gradually turned into the Hans Zimmer of anime over the last few years.

That aside...if I were making a list I'd put the show as an honorable mention, all things considered. Didn't really hook me as much as I had hoped.
