Out of curiosity, did anything in Eureka 7 EVER become anything other than a pure bog-standard mecha series? I watched it for awhile on YTV (back when I had
cable and there was an anime block) to see what the fuss was about and spent every episode wondering when I was going to see what was so special about it.
Bog standard main character, bog standard plot, bog standard love interest, bog standard fights, bog standard morality. I'm not trying to diss people
that like it, I just honestly wonder why it became a big thing when everything I saw in the first five or six episodes was completely unoriginal. Does it
pull a mind trip or become seriously deep later on, or is it just that it has surfing mecha and a bunch of women?
Well I supose you'll have to define bog standard for me because if skysurfing transforming mecha which fight with combat boomerangs isn't enough to
pique your interest then I don't know what is.
