So like… after 9 episodes, I realized Mentar was totally right.

this Blassreiter talk is all very interesting. I watched the first episode too, and the effects made me want to yak. Plus, it was about motorcycles, which interested me 0%. Gonzo doesn’t bother me, they get a bad rap when they’ve done as much good as bad.

Turns out the final couple episodes of Druaga had the same type of horrible CG and I thought that series was really decent.

Sounds like maybe it’s worth a shot.

Haha, Kabitzin I can’t believe you’re still following Nabari no Ou! I stopped it at episode 5! XD

I believe I said that Kure-nai had “slice of life elements”. Somehow you automatically translated this into “boring”?

Wow, that tickles me quite a bit, tnx
In a nutshell: I can’t guarantee you’ll like it, it’s definitely not for everyone’s tastes. But I’ve seen my share of animes, and this is a totally underrated show, and I somehow would consider it sad if it lost 90% of the potential viewership by the bad GONZO reputation and slightly misleading initial eps. Those few who follow it and discuss it on boards agree that it really is the dark horse of the spring season.

Hmmm, since you have a lot of political capital with me, I will take what you say seriously. Thank you for warning me about the crappy first episodes so that I can prepare myself mentally.
