This show could have been so, so good. Instead, it's full of plot armor, nonsensical decisions and crappy writing. Crappy writing goes hand in hand with plot armor for your main characters when you don't know how to make your story work. And you can definitely see here that the writers had no idea how to finish this show, and were just pulling things out of their asses as the seasons moved on. Oh and if you thought that Star Wars storm troopers had bad aim, you ain't seen nothing yet. The highly trained security forces and mercenaries hired to keep everyone safe couldn't hit the broad side of a barn with a tank, nor can they see someone coming in from the left/right in rooms with glass walls.

This movie falls under the category "it's so stupid, it's funny".

The whole point to it is to poke fun at all the patriotic morrons out there, and it does that marvelously. You shouldn't take it seriously, it's not ment that way. Just a funny movie.

I will be honest, I saw the trailer for this on Netflix and added it to my list because it looked interesting and goofy enough to waste at least 15 minutes on an episode, without giving it much thought. It stayed in my list for a couple of months until I finally got around to it. And I'm really happy I did. At first i went into it more as background noise, it wouldn't be the first show that i had in the background, just so the room isn't silent while I'm doing something else. Initially had it set on english, so I didn't have to pay much attention to the screen, while still hearing what's going on. But in the middle of the 3rd episode I realised that I was actually paying more attention to the show than I initially wanted to, and the story started to suck me in. The characters show up one by one, not crowding the episode, and they each get an explanation on who they are and why they do what they do but not necessarily from the start (you will get some heartwarming backstory on a few of the characters in the OVAs and episodes in season 2). The show is mainly a comical one, with splapstick gags employed throughout each episode, but with a dramatic tone that makes itself felt especially in the backstory episodes or in the main storyline. Overall, the show is great, with very good character building, even if the style of animation might be off-putting for some.
