Yeah, I pretty much quit watching it after a couple of weeks, as well. I like the character designs, but the story and animation aren't working for me. Gundam stories so rarely do, though....
I am loveing the MEGAS XLR show, though. I thought that was Bruce Campbell, but was like 'nah....'
Great stuff. Like Californium said, though, if you're trying to take it seriously, you're missing the point of the show.
