I finally finished the anime last night and my first/biggest impression of this was "Ive never seen an anime with this much contrast from beginning to end". The beginning sucked majorly and the ending was amazing. The artwork was nice and the quality was pretty good (even though I was just watching it on youtube cause I was too lazy to download).
The beginning was really pretty meh for me. Yeah there were nice fight scenes but that was about it, and if I wanted pure fight scenes, I'd have watched it elsewhere. The first 18 episodes took me 3 weeks to get through on and off. I watched 19-27 in one sitting last night up till 4 am.
Ive heard the music before on G4's blog and I'd say that watching it with the anime and on its own makes all the difference in the world. On its own, its just a clash of different genres while in the anime, its the clash of emotions and whatnot.
Overall, it was a nice anime but the beginning few episodes takes it out of the "great" anime lists for me.
