I had pretty decent hopes for Symphogear, and even stuck it out through some of the sillier episodes in hope that the darker aspects of the show would become more developed.
However, unlike Madoka, this show fails to deliver on a deeper level.

Basically, it's a cheaper, less aesthetically and mentally pleasing version of Madoka; if you want entertainment, go with the real deal.

Kuragehime definitely took me by surprise- I didn't expect to enjoy this show anywhere near as much as I did.
I came in expecting a pretty typical set up, but once you get in to it, all the characters have eccentricities and quirks that make them endearing. The plot kept me interested the entire time, and though the ending could use some (alot) of resolution, what can you expect from an 11 episode show?
Definitely worth your time, warm fuzzies all around.

I was drug, practically kicking and screaming, into watching Aquarion.
My friend insisted the first 45-minute episode was worth watching, based on pure ridiculousness. I was, to say the least, incredulous.
Finishing episode one, I wasn't exactly impressed, but the art was so well done that I decided I'd stick with it.

Boy, am I glad I did.
On top of being a visually stunning show (I mean, seriously, exactly what kind of budget did these guys get?) Aquarion just has a completely off-the-wall, what-the-fuck-are-they-thinking kind of plot that I can easily get a laugh out of.
I won't try to give you the illusion that it isn't completely ... and utterly retarded, because, oh, it is. But I'm the kind of person who can take a ridiculous plot and find alot of enjoyment in it, and the fact the animation is consistently and extremely well done, Aquarion is a great choice for some good old mindless fun.
