| I really hate it when people are like "guilty crown sucks" or "guilty crown is just a copy of code geass", I mean, sure its not 100% original and it definitely had room for improvement but it doesn't make the anime bad per-say. Honestly, the only aspect in which it was worse than code geass imo was the personality of the main character and the pacing in the beggining, other than that it is pretty much superior in all facets. =i do not believe on judging an anime by its originality, because even if it is a copy, if it does it better, who cares?= Edit: Because people are screaming in my school library how certain overrated anime's are bad. I am not saying that they are amazing animes or anything but the certainly aren't bad. |

| Because it was bad. |
I'm also filled with pure-hearted ulterior motives. |
| I don't think it's because of the lack of originality. There were was just too much that wasn't explained. |
 |
| I seriously hate the ending just hate it. |
 |
| I don't hate I just dislike it. Loved the world they created, the music & the dudes little powers but the characters sucked IMO. None of them were interesting... Looked great too |
| I thought it was ok, not really as bad as people made it out to be. |

| In my opinion, they butchered the story around the second half of the series, though I thought it was awesome when |
 |
| Haven't watched it yet, but I have played through the OST multiple times and I have to say it's the best I've heard. |

| People loved Code Geass and saw Guilty Crowntry to accpmplish something similar.Therefor they deemed it a rip off and bad. Me? I found the story was ecoming stupid and that I did not careenough for the characters to keep going. The musicwas great though. |

| My memory is fuzzy on it, didn't it try to be a "jack of all trades" anime but just fell flat from trying it? |
MoeMoeAttack said: Good luck with that.I would have to fervently disagree with your statement on how GC is superior to GC. |
 |
| I never said this anime was amazing, but i just don't understand why people rip on it so much like it wasn't horrid or anything and it did have redeeming aspects. |
AsianKungFu said: I thought it was ok, not really as bad as people made it out to be. Pretty much. Although the main character could have been a lot better. He was bad. |
 |
| Meh. I think I just expected more from it. |

Please don't feed the trolls! In my next life I want to collide at the corner with the cute transfer student carrying a piece of toast in her mouth...rodac |
| the main character should have been gai |
| save all the cute girls from ntr manga |
| i don't hate it because i don't know it :v |
| The music though . . .Thsat alone makes me happy I gave it a go. |
| "Fuck this shit, fun things are fun!" |
| I just marathoned this series and I can't even imagine how I would've felt if I had watched it week after week. Seriously, I felt masochistic when Also I don't think it's a carbon copy of code geass... if anything I felt the series had more elements in common with evangelion, but still managed to look original. Mod Edit: Added spoiler tags; please hide plot details. |

| More like Cliche Crown Couldn't force myself anymore to watch past 7th episode. It's really boring. Only animation is good. |
| Between the adult world and the world of kids, there, Holyland exists. |
| It was just horribly bad,only thing which made me sit through was to see how this abomination would end. |
One Piece episode 914 & 915 & 1027 were a mistake and 957 brought the salvation - FMmatron |
| I think the main problem of GC is mc - Shuu is annoying, selfish, useless piece of shit, who acts like a child and always complaining. He's literally nothing without his superpower, worst mc I've ever seen. |
| I honestly can't remember much I watched it 3 years ago. But I do remember getting annoyed and frustrated with certain events that happened and I cannot remember much. |
 |
| The story is poorly written. If not for the amazing OST and art style this would have been a total disaster. |
| The closer you get to the light,the greater your shadow becomes. |
| Because the MC's harem is dead and some people cant stand it,i̶n̶c̶l̶u̶d̶i̶n̶g̶ ̶m̶e̶ |
| Maybe sad ending :) |
| because show is bad |
| First time I watched Guilty Crown, I rated 9/10. I was intrigued by the entire concept of peoples' souls being manifested by a physical tool; and that concept was also interwoven into the whole genetic crystalization virus/cancer thing concept. And on top of that, the CG animation was the highest quality for that time. The only reason I gave it a 9 and not 10 was because MC turned into a nazi halfway through. First time watching, I knew the middle section of the story was shitty. Second time watching Guilty Crown through, I now realize the ENTIRE story the full time has always been a clusterfuck that either made no sense or was otherwise shallow and boring. Like damn, now I dont even know why I chose to watch this a second time. Now I'm rating this a 3/10. A 6-point drop -- the largest change Ive made to a show's rating after a second watching. |

| A lot of people say it's copy of Code Geass , well I watched Guilty Crown before Code Geass and I didn't think like that , idk why so many people don't like it , for me it's very solid anime |
 "I want to show that woman the true Yoshikage Kira. I want her to hear how I feel deep inside. That I want to take your slender neck into these hands and strangle you to death." |
| I kind of hated it as well. UrbanSpaceman said: I think the main problem of GC is mc - Shuu is annoying, selfish, useless piece of shit, who acts like a child and always complaining. He's literally nothing without his superpower, worst mc I've ever seen. I agree with this. You just cannot have a good anime without a solid MC. Terrible MC here from start to finish. I always wanted him to die or suffer. |

| Finished it yesterday and i agreed with someone here. The anime had to stop at first 12 episodes. The bad thing is that after 12th episode there are some good ideas and scenes but with no good ''handling''. The ending for me it was not so bad, but not good also. After final battle they didn't show us many things to answer some questions, for example what happened to supporter/main characters. But i want to say a BIG THANK YOU for the amazing OSTs, especially Βίος(Bios). Sorry for my english. =[ |

| Main character became a tyrant for one episode! The music was good tho. Story wise? Pretty damn bad. |
 |
| I dont get why it ever got that much popular for starters, from solely episode 1. Hope it gets better, to the point I then can have fun and just say, aside the ending, this was very enjoyable.

| I just finished watching the last episode. I was mostly enjoying things until Shuu decided to turn his school into Lord of the Flies, then it all kind of fell apart. Considering how often the MC complained about Gai’s methods it didn’t take Shuu long to become a worse leader. The whole plan to melt everyone into LCL... er I mean merge everyone into a crystal was pretty lame too, that idea seems to have been done so many times now I’m not even sure where I saw it first (maybe Douglas Adam’s Shada?) Overall I think it did such a great job with the atmosphere in the first episode that it took the final episode’s naff ending to really snap me out of it. I think the show could have just about got by if they’d had a better ending. |
| I agree. I recently read a GC review and recommend it to anyone else who wants a good overview of the plot aspect of the anime. You'd find the review here. I have no objection to others' reviews and opinions about Shou or the plot-holes or the character developments, because beauty lies in the eyes of the beholder. I don't believe in the main character always being the starter or forgoer of a healthy developmental cycle or "the win-win role" who brings out the best everywhere. For me, the MC was very relatable; That was the biggest dull part of the series. And the only one. Sure it has its imperfections and many parts may not be powerful; but personally I have loved GC for as long as I can recall. |
