Part of the problem with E7 was that its intended demographic was never made quite clear. To quote
this interview:
"There was a director, who wanted something that reflected the music and subculture of his generation - and a love story. The producer said we need transforming robots that fight each other. The sponsor said that the show must come on at 7:00 in the morning on Sunday, and that it should be for kids... Everyone has to be satisfied."
Did they satisfy anyone, though?
Anyway, still catching up slowly with SnM. Really not "feeling" the show very much; I appreciate it from a technical viewpoint and appreciate how well crafted it is, but somehow it just bores me to tears on a regular basis which is really disappointing. I'd love to read the books, though. Maybe it'll pick up in a bit.
