I can't fathom how underrated this show is. I mean, it is confusing at times, but it's so consistent and beautiful. The directing is amazing. 7.77? Really? So many more people should watch this.

Because the series suddenly decided that it has a plot when it didn't need one. I would have rated it a lot higher if it remained an episodic series throughout its run because it looks very good.
It has exactly the same issues as kekkai sensen, also by the same director.

it did have a plot since the start, though? the episodic bits were about introducing the characters while building the world & plot of koto and myoue becoming the end & the beginning.

It did but the episodic bits were so much better that the reintroduction of the plot in the last three (or was it two I don't remember) episodes brought the series down for me.

It doesn’t have popular appeal I guess, but among certain groups of anime fans it has a pretty good reputation. I liked it

I can only give my own thoughts derived from my own experiences with the show, but I found that while the show was incredibly captivating audiovisually, there was very little substance to back it up. I understood the themes, messages, and the lot throughout - although I will admit it did take quite a bit of pondering - however, it didn't really connect with me, and I felt as though nothing came together in the end. It felt very disjointed and like it wanted to say something without the knowledge or the means to actually put it into action.

I think Kyousougiga is an incredibly subjective show in the same vein as Mawaru Penguindrum or FLCL. Not everyone will connect with it, and that's okay. It's made for the people who do connect with it, and I've seen that those who do, REALLY do connect with it, which is awesome :)
