Also, Basara's theme of anti war seemed crazy even before we figured how he was actually connected to Operation M.

BUT once the show gets into the real sound force arc and actually explains what a protodevlin was the show does pick up.

To me Gamilin was the meter that actually mirrored the audience's attitude. At first he absolutely hates Basara and his meddling in war operations. Eventually he figures out that concept that Basara represents is worth fighting for.

Like the others have said, it's best summed up as "LISTEN TO MY SONG!"
True its more of a simple mecha action in space thing(like gundam......heehehehe I kid), less epic than the other 2.
