I will say that Argevollen is progressively getting better with every episode, but you will have to go through 10 episodes of the stereotypical mecha anime that we have seen before in other series (and done a lot better...the first Gundam series comes to mind). At least when Xebec did that with Broken Blade/Break Blade we had the visuals and amazing fights to hid this...in Argevollen we unfortunately don't...and those first 10 episodes are sometimes dull, and a chore to watch. But hey, if the formula from 35 years ago isn't broke...don't fix it?Mythgarr wrote:
Oh well, Argevollen is still ongoing and still much better than this one...
On topic, while Aldnoah is by no stretch of the imagination a perfect series, it was a lot of fun (probably the most fun I had with a series outside of Free! Eternal Summer) Especially if you take realism out of the scenario every now and then...it is basically my attitude when I watch the walking dead.
My prediction for season 2
Spoiler
is that all the mars landing castles will be defeated and we will get more of mars/Vers. Either with a Earth Forces counterattack or a second invasion from the aggressors.
