I love it and i hope part 2 will meet my expectations

Edit: Today I finished part 2 and i was blown away because the whole part is a masterpiece holy shit, it even made me cry which is the second anime to make me feel this happy for an ending. We won't forget!

I'm not saying it's my favourite but it has an interesting plot and the animation is good as well. I say it's a mediocre.

i was hooked in season one and really enjoyed it but the way everything just kinda resets in season two was kinda immersion breaking. fidos death was a really emotional scene and his rebuild was like “oh okay i guess none of that mattered”. annoying loli character didn’t help either

Mild spoiler warning if you haven’t watched part 2

I absolutely loved part 1 (9/10), but I didn’t like part 2 nearly as much (6/10). Frederica was so annoying to me and I was disappointed that Lena was almost nonexistent up until the last few episodes. I also felt that the main cast in part 2 just couldn’t die at all, while in part 1 it seemed like there were actually stakes? That made me less emotionally invested in the fate of the characters. That’s just my opinion. I won’t fight anyone who liked part 2 or anything lol.

It’s pretty good. High stakes, enjoyable characters that develop overtime, deep messages and amazing production. It can be a little slow at times but overall an easy 8/10

Yes. For a mecha it's better than code Gayass

Wouldnt say it is bad, i struggled a little bit watching the frist part, most of it was pretty mid up to boring, it had some interesting Scenes and a good animation, but that’s already all, the story didnt realy catcher me. I havent watched the second part and probably will not do it. Summarized: A average mecha anime which I wouldn’t consider as good.

The music was insanely good. But that’s Hiroyuki Sawano for you. It’s an absolute blast to listen to.

The novel/source material was my personal pick, I got hooked by its first volume 2 years ago and I don't regret reading it, easily a 10/10, seeing the anime animated accurately in a much more passion compared to other light novel adaptations was a plus point for me, others may say its a masterpiece, yes it is. I know, I know... this anime isn't for everyone. some might not like it the way it is or some just want to nitpicked the show. anyways.

Its always personal preference that matters.

if not this year, 86 Eighty-six will dethrone code geass from the mecha genre. from anyone who did not know, the first cour/volume along with the Federacy arc is the weakest and got adapted into an almost masterpiece level (I'd say almost since not everyone liked it so...) let alone its peak arc which is next season...

Yes and Part 2 Episode 11 was a masterpiece followed up with none of the most satisfying endings I've seen in a bit

Didn't like it that much, it was pretty mediocre and a bit too overdramatic for my taste, I'm all up for emotional moments if they are done with subtlety but those moments felt a bit too overdramatic in this anime and they used it way too much, kinda felt forced and artificial.

The CGI was jarring, I hate the CGI usage here, it was pretty bad so not much to say about it either.

Just finished season 1, and was disappointed with it but I hate dropping animes so I will start watching season 2 now, hopefully, season 2 will be better.

I give season 1 a 6.5/10 so far.

You mean hopefully you'll enjoy it more? Both seasons are masterpiece level. But that doesnt mean everyone is going to enjoy it equally, or even at all. If you considered first season bad, I doubt it will ''improve'' in your perception. Second season is more of the same except even better. Which for someone dislike season 1 would probably be ''even worse'' instead.

The CGI in the show is actually pretty good for once, not sure what the complaint is with that one. Its nice considering usage of CGI is usually rightfully complaint about because of how low quality it is.

As for emotions.. emotions are per defination not really subtle. They are either shown, or arent. But subtle? Not really anything like that. I found their display in the show (or lack thereof) felt very real.
Very emotional when shown.. because thats what it looks like when you let emotions flood out.

For me this is easily one of the best pieces of media ive ever experienced. (season 1+2)
So its an easy 10/10.

Fair enough, I respect your opinion about it mate, I guess this anime is not able to please everyone.

I finished season 2 (2 days ago) and I gave it a 7/10 but only because of the nice ending which I enjoyed, I didn't enjoy the rest of the stuff that much. What can I say, this anime is simply not my cup of tea.

I really didn't like the CGI usage here, I've seen better CGI in other animes but I know that implementing CGI on a 2D anime is not easy, sometimes it will simply look out of place and that's what happened here, I've found the CGI to be quite distracting in this anime.

The emotional moments in this anime felt a bit too overdramatic for my taste, they create a melodrama over something and it keeps snowballing from there and it happened a lot, it really felt forced and artificial IMHO, I rather have something more subtle in the emotional moments, for example, I've found the emotional moments in Steins;Gate, Naruto, Attack on Titan, Claymore, Parasyte the Maxim, Re:Zero, etc... a lot better, plus I love the OST in the emotional moments on the animes I mentioned, I simply didn't like the OST in this anime that much in those moments and I need a good OST to connect with those moments.

An example of the good OST I'm talking about in the emotional moments: Sadness and Sorrow (Naruto), Farewell "Suzuha's Theme" (Steins;Gate), Chain of Memories (Re:Zero), Elegy of Massacre, Her Most Beautiful Eyes, Her Most Beautiful Smile (Rurouni Kenshin), etc... this is just to name a few but these are the type of OST that I love in the emotional moments, 86 didn't have those type of OST in the emotional moments so I wasn't able to enjoy it that much either, I need those type of OST since they have a lot of melody in it and 86 didn't have it, I've noticed that the OST 86 had in those moments was mostly a piano piece but it lacked the "melody", to me it mostly sounded like the pianist was improvising those moments in piano, I simply didn't like it that much since it lacked the "melody" that I usually love from the OST of animes that I mentioned. Not saying that the OST in those moments is bad in this anime, I simply didn't like it since that OST in the emotional moments is not my cup of tea either but not everything was bad, I did love the OST Two Worlds Apart in this anime though, it's one of the best OST in 86 IMHO.

Its original soundtrack was really nice! In my opinion, Hiroyuki Sawano, Yutaka Yamada and Kohta Yamamoto are the best anime composers for epic OSTs.
Nice visual effects :)
