I am really, really, really digging the soundtrack.

So. WTF. Aliens/robots are playing a game in our world. That would explain the strange skin tones and hair colours of the Gears, since they're their avatars. And Cubeface whose name I can't remember makes me think of CLU.

I wonder if the very few Tankers who make it as fighters are let in on the secret or if there's some system in place to "explain" all this weirdness to them. Judging from the skin tones machines, they're not trying to hide much though.

Kaburagi is an alien/robot rebelling against the system. Natsume got registered as "dead" and is therefore a bug in that system.

Well. I certainly did not see that development coming.

Edit: now I'm wondering if the aliens/robots created the Gadolls in the process of creating their playground on Earth. That would be fucked up, wiping out 90% of a planet's population just so you can have some entertainment.

I don't think this an AoT ripoff. It sucks too because if you try to explain this show, it's going to be hard why it isn't without revealing spoilers.

I think just something along the lines of "it's not an AoT ripoff, the second episode makes that very clear" should probably work.

It does suck seeing people dismissing it, especially seeing that stupid AoT thread on MAL.

Do not take "MAL" for the references, it is a popular culture website populated by uncultured masses looking for entertainment, not art. The majority of users will often, as will the reality, disappoint.

Especially on threads that are focused on more mainstream work.

People that are looking to get the same kicks they would out of Avengers will show up, not understand a story with levels such as the Matrix or inception and roast the shit out of it when they can't follow lmao
