This is why these rating threads always bother me, and why I can't get along with something like MAL. Liking anime is a very personal thing, but as soon as someone seriously rates something popularly regarded as "uncool" high, or heaven forbid, does the opposite, they're jumped on. Maybe it's enjoyable to bicker about arbitrary numbers but I don't see the appeal.

For what it's worth, I found 00 fantastically interesting and hurriedly consumed all of the LE singles upon release, even immediately rewatching those episodes which had a commentary track each time to drag the experience out as long as possible.

I enjoyed 00 at its worst more than I enjoyed Geass (which was an entertaining enough show!) at its best. Setsuna wasn't my favourite character, but I found him more interesting than I did Lelouch. People are different.

In before the accusations of being easily pleased, whatever that means (I don't mind if I am seen that way).
