The first of Goro Taniguchi's "Gundam SEED is a fucking abortion, stop liking it" series. I'm a little surprised that I didn't follow it much when it was first airing, though the first couple of episodes are a little dull and full of episodic 'wacky' events that don't seem to matter. Having heard it's worthwhile though, I finally went through and finished, and it was worthwhile if not spectacular. The setting bland, and the main plot is as old as storytelling (revenge), but it's done well enough that it's fine. Got some rather nice super robot action too, for those who are into such things. 3/5

Despite the horribly unfulfilling ending, the rest of the show was ok. In my opinion, many of the characters were not as developed as they should have been or some of them were just sort of deemed not important or worthy of any screen time after their introductory episode. But, with a show that's 26 episodes and has to follow the anime rule of having shitty filler episodes that amount to nothing ...then I guess you can expect that. There are some funny and interesting moments and I didn't find myself wanting to kill (most) of that characters. Overall not bad but not great. It actually was one of the better things I've seen lately despite my unenthusiastic review, so I'll give it a 3.5/5

I'd actually give Gun x Sword a 4/5. It starts slow and the mid-series filler is as bad as any other series' but it gets better and better as it goes along and has one of the better endings I've ever seen, especially for an anime revenge story. I don't see how it could possibly be unfulfilling.
