| Just marathoned tsuki ga kirei melodramatic but overall better than decent, randomly came across Cross Ange rn never heard or seen anything about this but piqued my interest Plz be brutally honest whether you think its shit or if its underrated, etc. I like the fact that its original and sunrise, sunrise has surprised me sometimes (thinking scryed and gundam seed here) Worth it or waste of time? Kinda in the mood to marathon more gotta catch the wave. Any commentary is cool, thx in advance |

| thx for the quick responses I'l probably decide depending on some more commentary my old man juices are tiring out now might ZZZ soon. |
| CROSS ANGE is THE best anime EVER MADE, with great action, great plot, great humor, ACTUALLY COMPLETED anime unlike bunch of trash LN anime that are popular right now, with a lot of GREAT CHARACTERS, especially the protagonist, ANGELISE-SAMA, the most badass anime protagonist ever made is THE baddest alpha bitch who doesn't give a shit about anything EVER. male? female? dragons? mecha? GOD? everything is under HER control, she is the most superior true harem queen! and it's nana mizuki, of course. |

| hahah i'm not gonna lie the art kinda makes me laugh especially some of the character designs i'm sure there's plenty of ecchi here not that i care.. but Is there an actual coherent story here? lul I guess that's what i'm more curious about |

| The yuri moments aren't that many and the rape is only attempted.It's one of the few mecha anime that I actually watched and enjoy.So watch it, seriously, and decide for yourself if it's bad or good cause it's definitely good for me. Plus (KINDA SPOILER BUT...) the main character actually got laid near the end and she's straight. TL;DR It was good enough for me.So it's recommended. |

TgK was the antithesis of a melodramatic show, any scene that in any other show would lead to an overblown screaming and crying segment, was instead and elegantly replaced by subtle character changes in body language and change in vocal tone. I'm not asking for you to all of a sudden like the show, I have no right to that, but you clearly used an incorrect word to describe a show which does its utmost to avoid the melodramatisism you implied, in my opinion. |

So what if they used subtle ways to display and convey emotions. I definitely appreciated that considering it's not common. I don't think it was incorrect at all. It was a tad-bit melodramatic to me. Really you're crying because you love the guy so much but you have to move omggggg the feeeels. No really, that's just how I feel. Let's just agree to disagree here. |

It was one of the aspects that exponentially increased my respect for the show, making it a very special and personal experience for me. But yeah, I can't disagree that I felt those feeeels. |
| there i edited my post i took the "VERY" out before melodramatic. |

| It's not shit, just different. It begs you to turn your brain off while watching it yet at the same time tries to make you think about the (partially existing) plot. I'll just say it's one hot mess, character and storywise with a dash of singing from out of the left field (I'd say macross,but I doubt plenty of people will get the memo), oh, and random deus ex machina and sudden stupidity syndromes that even the writers give up on explaining. I really like it though. It's stupid and (very)flawed, but l like the characters (and the story) for being stupid, nonetheless. |

I"ll attempt. thx. |
| It was overrated before, and underrated now. It's basically a Sunrise giant robot drama that creates some female empowerment, and them bashes it down with male chauvinism and ecchi. The drama (and giant robot/fighting, but Sunrise never disappoints with those) aspect isn't bad though. |
| Be thankful for the wisdom granted to you. |

| Appreciating the insight and honesty here, ty. |
Intelos said: melo = melody"Tsuki ga Kirei, very melodramatic" can you explain how in any fathomable way? Smh they play songs during drama moments => melodramatic |
 |
| cross ange its mecha isnt gundam level. its not too much mecha ll time time. the so called male lead is useless but isnt given enough screen time to become hatebale. the lead mc angeliese is quite unlikeable but shes meant to be a flawd heroine whos not a nice person. shes gets her virginity takes by one jailer thrusting a couple of fingers in her pussy [not actually shown] and that scene lasts like 3 seconds in the 1st ep. thats about it to the rape allegations. story wise, its better than most haremshit plots. wont spoil it yet but its not as deep or expansive as hxh or long runnin battle shonen but its a good story anyway. i dont recommend shit but since you asked, I'd say Definitely Watch this. give it a go, but if it gets boring dont think too much to drop it, if you dont like the 1st few eps, wont get better....... |
| It's a fun watch for sure. It got A LOT of hate, for the most bulllshit of reasons like 'omg rape, bad show' or 'this is sexist'(false) and the like, and while it's for sure kind of stupid and edgy, it's at the same time very fun. The action is kinda cool, there are great songs, a bit of n0ice fanservice, and a pretty unique main character. It doesn't get boring for a second, that's for sure. I would give it a try. Just don't expect anything smart tbh |
 |
| Don't compare garbage like tsuki ga kirei to Cross Ange Cross Ange has - Good Action - Has blood and people getting killed (make sure to watch blu-ray version because it has less censors) - has sexy girls and good lesbian scenes - has romance between the main female character and a guy - Has story and villains - Has some plot twists tsuki ga kirei look like just another boring romance/school anime. I dropped it after watching 1st episode |
| It's one of the few ecchi anime done right. |

| All I know is some girl gets probed in her butt in the first episode. That alone makes it a solid 10/10. |
| "No, son, you may not have your body pillow at the dinner table!" |
| It's just a shitty Gundam Seed clone with lesbians and gratuitous tits and ass that tries to be funny instead of being legitimately hilarious like Seed and Destiny. Also, none of the characters in it can hold a candle to the king of Gary Stus and laser spam which is Kira Yamato. |
| I c. Looks like a bag of mixed opinions. Surprised the top 3 reviews are all 9s and the 4th one is a 1. Lul. Love it or hate it type of thing. Anyhow thx for the replies I read them all thoroughly either way I'm gonna start it today as soon as I wake up entirely I'm still groggy as hell from marathoning last night. Worth an attempt at least it seems like. Actually quite surprised how many people liked the show considering how uninspiring it looks on surface. There's a chance I might like it sounds a lot like code geass levels of depth and nonsense to me... maybe worse? Even though I think code geass S1 was a 10 personally it's definitely has its flaws plot wise and sometimes is kinda nonsensical and dumb, but hey it sure as hell delivered on a lot of other parts for ex: keeping it entertaining as hell constantly and with some quality drama. So considering that aspect there might be a chance I enjoy Cross Ange for sure. anyways thx everyone. If anyone wants to add more commentary tho go for it and thx in advance. @hamakami wow that was a lot of work, thx for the comment. I am aware of those actually Book_Lover recommended me YLIA too before. I am familiar with those titles but out of those 3 If i were attempt something I would probably go for YLIA first. I might get around to it sometime but honestly the HIGHschool setting itself is somewhat of a deterrant for me.. and I'm not huge on the melodrama part but sometimes hey it works for me. Just gota really get the feeling to watch it before I go into it though otherwise. I'll get around to it though looks like it has a high standard of quality at least, just afraid it might be cheesy as hell and melodramatic to the point where I think its bad. @Catsoul lul that made me chuckle. |

| Allow me to share a little story: A user on MAL was looking for a strong female protagonist with some romance. I recommended her Cross Ange. After four episodes, she dropped the series saying that she couldn't handle the fan service. I convinced her to continue watching it, and she agreed to watch. Two days later, she finishes the series and gives it a 10. If you enjoyed Gundam SEED, then you'll be right at home with Cross Ange. If you do watch Cross Ange, then remember to WATCH THE PREVIEWS AT THE END OF EVERY EPISODE. Watching the previews after the credits roll is one of the great charms of the series! Many people tend to misunderstand Cross Ange because they skip over the previews. The Previews are important and give you some hidden details in the series, so don't miss them! I rewatched the anime three times, two times subbed, the third time dubbed. While the sub is generally better, the dub has some quirks of its own that makes it special, specifically "Go f**k yourself." The anime is fast-paced, and with all the twists and turns that it has, you'll probably marathon it to the end really easily. One of the reasons why Cross Ange is my favorite anime is because it is one of the very few anime that succeeds in doing what other anime have failed to accomplish: doing what it wants and not giving a crap about what other people think. As one of the creators stated in his interview: "Either you go all the way or you don't do it at all." And Cross Ange goes all the way...especially in the Blu-Ray version... |

Awesome comment, i will definitely keep that in mind I'm about to start it. I'll give it 10 episodes no matter what (I hope i don't regret this). I will definitely watch after the credits as well too thx for that tip. |
| PUHAHAHA I just have to say I'm on ep 10 and the part where she just starts singing outta nowhere i almost spit out my water because it was so laughably out of place. Anyhow i'm gonna keep going XD. |

Maybe you've seen in some show, a hotpot stew where each member brings a secret ingredient and cooks it in a dark room and the you don't know what you might pick up. It brings every 'twist', nonsense irrational behaviour, and impulsive charas into a big complex storyline. |

XD I like that there's lots and lots of content even though its nonsensical, it still makes the attempt to keep you entertained at least which I value. After about like episode 11 or 12 it gets much better though I have to say, at least I felt that way so enjoy! |
| I finished Cross Ange yesterday and it's very recomendable. It has a lot of plot twist and some characters with great personality. Don't take the story very serius. |
| For a mecha, it's shit but a great watch, Ange (the MC) has biggest character development of all time (it's astronomical) and it's that kind of anime where Alpha Heroine took the beta male MC's job of building a harem 9/10 Almost forgot that one of my favorite ship of all time is in Cross Ange too |
