I actually like the anime, the series. The movie was a bit of a disapointment, but i loved the Anime. The ending was just so damned good i had to watch the last 3 eps 5 times in a row to get my fill
This is one of the few manga conversions i dont pick over and complain about. Sure its not faithful, but there's just xsomething about it. I also loved the music for it, ive been searching for the OST's but no joy yet
I wouldnt call it s**t, since everyone has different tastes. I found Gundam Seed Destiny painful and terrible, but i know others who loved it. We cant all have the same tastes and likes, where's the fun in that
Given when it was made, and the number of episodes it has, content etc. This is one of a few shows (one of 7 in fact) that gets a 10/10 from me.
Edit: In case anyone is interested, the manga IS still being translated, slowly but surely. Once a month or so a new chapter turns up on lurk
