More like just generally unappreciated, at least in the West since Japan seems to love it.
From what I can tell not many people gave it much of a chance and I can still find people around the internet who clearly never saw more than a couple episodes at most claiming it's nothing more than a fanservice show about big boobs. Also very people people seemed to have had the patience to meet it's unusual style of dialogue halfway so the other claim is that it's confusing, poorly written and nonsensical. These people should obviously never be introduced to Finnegan's Wake. |

This show just needed a 15 minute animated narration to establish the setting... like the beginning of Lord of the Rings: Fellowship of the Ring.
The setting is really complicated. It takes a long while to figure out what the hell is going on. The series hasn't even completely explained where they are. |

Probably referring to F/Z.
Random comments + observations for episode 13:
My thoughts
Trivia question based on this episode (for season 2): What is "La Armada Invencible"? Happy Tsirhcmas everyone =), even though the other hemisphere had it already. |

Unfortunately C3 never made it big Though on the other hand, quite a number of people had expectations out of Horizon in the beginning, just not as much as say Guilty Crown, Persona, Fate/Zero or Haganai...

I would say C^3 fared better than most of the other shows that were condemned before they even aired...

I forgot that there are other numbers than "100k+" Hmmm, if we're going to go by that then Ben-Tou and Mashiro would also be considered Dark Horses.

Fared well in terms of sales? Probably not (Neither is Ben-tou from what I've heard)
Fared well in terms of how good the show is? The general response is yes, but as you know that's subjective.

What a great last episode, loved it! My favorite parts were probably Horizon's flashback (didn't even recognize that bgm until a few seconds in), the awesome animations, Toori being all awesome (as usual), the ending credit scene, and that cliffhanger... which i actually loved. I didn't think they would even go into vol.2 but they did and that made me ultra-happy. It's funny how I was the most excited in the last 2~3 mins of the episode/season. Summer break 2012 is gonna be amazing.

While I like C cube (Yukarinnnn), I don't think it qualifies as a dark horse. I don't follow Mashiroiro enough to comment on that. Bento I enjoyed as well, but novel fans hate it for taking up liberties with the plot, so I can't say that's completely successful adaptation either. Quote:
Japanese/Chinese have streaming sites ("sunflower" and "railgun") with commentaries that help answer some questions and point out plots that you would've missed otherwise (within 12 hours ...). English ... half week late translation = terrible for discussion in terms of pacing. There are probably more stuff I can mention for each episode, but the enthusiasm drops when I already watched the episode a few times (and school). Weekly, I still see people finishing the episode on Friday and we already have the next episode Saturday morning. Though I still think its a very nice gesture from mods for giving us a SF to help clear up the discussions (though I'm one of those who didn't think we didn't need it at first), the decision is still very much surprising considering I thought most of the discussions were doomed to begin with due to the (lack of timely) subs. I'm just happy that a certain "group(s)" killed another group, so people stopped getting misinformed. |

Plot is hanging... I was hoping of a romance at the end....but...
What I'm amazed was the SFX (where the hell those equipments coming from and... and...offerings???? duh?? I'll trade my lunch, or pray to a "maus"?) The D-E cups are fine but sometimes too much already. Kimi's song is EPICAL!!!!!!!! It still bangs in my head.. Kimi, I love YOU(Kimi). Judge. |
