Wish I was there...

-1: Eureka Seven - First things first, I really, REALLY love the soundtrack. I still get hype when I listen to those songs to this day.

Now, some background: I've lurked SA for like 8 years prior to registering, and used it's open access to follow the anime scene since catching up on TTGL after it aired. I noticed there was a HUGE bias towards Eureka Seven since it was the favorite of the longtime subforum mod, and so naturally I tried looking at it to see what was up. Episode after episode passes and aside from rocking out to the opening and ending every time I keep wondering what in the gently caress do people actually enjoy about this show? Sure, some of the surfing robot battles are cool, but is there even a character to like? A story to be engaged with? Anything? And back then it was absolutely impossible to negatively critique or question the Eureka Seven dogma. I finished all the episodes with glazed-eyes of boredom and confusion as to how not a single person ever voiced anything wrong with this show.

So guess what? My opinion is that the show sucks! Main character sucks a big suck, story sucks, main girl mostly sucked, the couple (names forgotten) were the best characters albeit in a minor role, and this show especially sucks for having such loving awesome music tied to it while sucking so hard. Also :lol: at AO, your sucky series deserved its sucky sequel!

Thanks for ruining my anime credibility, 2006.
Enjoyed Renton's big moment in the final episode but otherwise largely agree with this critique. Charles/Ray and Anemone/Dominic were vastly more interesting than everyone on the Gekkostate combined.
