A concept just weird enough to get people interested in seeing what the hell the show's about.
Animation quality that's pretty damned good for what by all accounts should probably be a very low budget affair.
Decent enough plot (even if clearly rushed since no one in their right mind would bank on this show to be the success it was).
And above all: outstanding directing and some pretty damned nice sound work (from soundtrack to directing without forgetting voice work).
At least that's my take on it. There aren't enough compliments to give to the execution for this show and it's just a shame that it'll probably never get anyone outside the regular anime following to even bat an eyelid at it. It's a very good example of how good execution can turn what looks like a mediocre concept on paper into a substantial hit.
