You should probably avoid Rie Kugamiya's voice pack for the Japanese market Maplus 2 GPS package then.

I'm a bit surprised to here someone say her voice was more annoying in Toradora than ZnT. I agree that her voice can be grating in Shana though.

That doesn't mean it doesn't have merit.. just that it doesn't push MY buttons.
A few days back I was discussing Angel Beats and it's "everything and the kitchen sink" approach to anime with a friend. I remember at one point joking that "So it's basically Code Geass done by Key?" At which point my friend said he thought that was actually a pretty good description of it.

I actually enjoy the show for it's mash up, parody like nature... I'm just not sure that's what the writers are intending. As to the characters, well, it's probably not a good thing when I throw my support behind a particular character due to fanart (soooo cute...) rather than the show itself.
