Spoiler for Episode 1:

The premiere was very good. Everything were well-implemented, the politics might not bore the viewers if they're curious about the story, the character designs are rad and fit the sci-fi setting and the mecha designs, while not looking nice (for me anyway, except the Argevollen design), fall into the same category as well. The pilots are competent and know what they are doing and Jamie was adorably moe in every aspect. The music sounded pretty cool so is the opening theme by Kotoko, it easily had the best introduction episode I've seen this summer so far. I'll definitively keeps it up.

[Utsuro no Hako]

I like that fact that (most of) the mecha are bulky, ugly machines, and there aren't any untrained kids who are better than professional soldiers after five seconds in the cockpit, but damn that MC is annoying. I sure hope is CO comes from the Bright Noa school of discipline.

[Irenesharda]

Doesn't seem to be much to this, it's your average mecha fare with a usual boy-falls-into-cockpit beginning. At least this one has a little training, I just wish he wasn't so unlikable.

In fact, both male and female MCs and most of the characters aren't that likable, both countries have issues, and the main mech is only okay.

I love mecha, so I'll stick with it a bit longer, but I'm hoping it really finds its stride and shapes up.

I did not fine main character annoying all of it In what he is doing is understandable

[Mr Nr]

Quite a good first episode. Given this is 24 episodes I believe it's got plenty of time. The only thing that felt off was the fact that the cgi wasn't very good and clearly stick out like a sore thumb. Other then that the mech designs were really good has a nice clunky feel to them expect for the MC mech at the end of episode. Cause you know the main character needs a nice new clean one to defeat the bad guys. Interesting world and premise. Hopefully it gets better.

Classic MC disregarding order to fulfill his self-appointed justice despite how obviously idiotic it was.

In a mostly realistic military setting, you'd expect some believeable behavior from the protagonists.

Anyway, aside from the MC, that was not so bad. I was not impressed by the so-called "main front" battle, but otherwise I liked the feeling of that mecha platoon.
Will watch at least a few episodes

Just finished up 1, I liked it. Two armies fighting over resources, walking tank style mecha, good action. I enjoyed it, good debut episode. I'll tune in next week for more. The Argevollen mecha is nicely designed, shame it had no weapons, but I guess karate chops do well enough.

[SinsI]

Ouch, that was hard to see. Using the weakest robot parts - delicate and extremely fragile arms and legs - to directly hit the body or head of enemy mecha... Main hero must really want to trash his new toy.

I wonder if they have Air Forces in that setting... A wing of tank hunter helicopters would've decimated those troops.

[ookamigirl]

Mecha everywhere.
Well, it is a state of war after all.
Halfway through, but not seeing anything that would peak my interest.
Still seems just like an average mecha anime.
Ah, so they kept the best for last.
Not surprised by their surprise that much.
Even though that Argevollen is pretty awesome in a fight.
Think I'm gonna skip this one.

[Flower]

Well... Umm... Not terrible, but not much to recommend it for me, either. (shrugs)

Mecha is a tough genre for me, though, so maybe no surprise there.

Will check out ep 2, prolly.

[DevilHighDxD]

I was surprised, our MC who has actual military training actually has worst debut than normal regular HS student. My wish for a L-elf like start out MC won't be granted it seem... I'll give it some couple more episodes.

[ChampDream]

so far I like Argevollen design, but the rest do not got me interested.
I wait and see the next episode to see if I'm going to keep watching this.

[hai_san]

What strikes me first that was the mecha designs, the normal mecha are similar to the models used in Front Mission videogames while Argevollen looks like from Evangelion.

I will see how is developes.

[bakato]

OP is awesome. Can't wait for visuals.
