This would have been one of my favorite sci-fi anime of all time. I watched it with the family way back in 2014 and it quickly grew to be one of the most intriguing, eerie, and dare I say disturbing anime I ever saw. The pacing was one of the best in my opinion, with things being revealed at the right time and things getting intense at the right moments. It even referenced some real-life mysteries like the UVB-76 radio station and solar flares. It was perfect; almost as good as Steins;Gate if you ask me!
The final episode though, was one of the most disappointing things I EVER saw. Without going into too much detail, it felt incredibly rushed and concluded everything the series had built up to so haphazardly that to this day, I have yet to see a "finale" nearly as bad as this one. Weak cartoon finales have always been met with "At least it wasn't as disappointing as Robotics;Notes" in my opinion. I could go into more detail why I HATED this final episode, but I'd rather not spoil this otherwise great anime. It took me awhile to remind myself how much I enjoyed the anime up to that point, and how worthy of a watch it still was.....if you don't watch the last episode.
This series is a solid 8/10. Would've given a 9 or 10 if not for that awful finale.....

All cliches of anime are here. And I mean it as a bad thing. Most of the characters are cringy for bad-taste slapstick comedy and screaming faces with dramaqueen atitude.
As I watched, every episode needed more and more suspension of disbelief f.e. Grownups involved in building robots help teenagers with assembling funds and parts for a huge robot (10+ meters) and this party of few teens will design it and build it, but they are completely surprised by a simple law of upsizing the structure 10 times, making it more than 10 times heavier.
Its really not worth your time, if you need a scientific based anime, go watch Planetes.
