I honestly didn't expect much when I sat down to watch an episode. But boy was I pleasantly surprised. Not only is the story refreshing but you get a chance to understand the characters and what motivates them. The action sequences are beautiful and well done and so is the overall story for the show.
3 episodes in and I'm hooked and can't wait for the 4th episode to drop.
Easily one of the best animations right now IMO
Strong cast and compelling story. After watching 3 episodes I am still hungry for more. The animation is a feast for the eyes and at the end of each episode I feel like it just started. Can't wait to see this story develop and the world to expand.
Despite my grumbling about this series having enemies which are fighting the protagonists for unknown reasons, I would say that this series is well-done. Apart from the one genderfluid character, all the others are compelling and their lines are strong, as is the story, generally. So, I'd recommend it, although I hope for improvements in the quality in the upcoming season. I would say that this is stronger than some of the other animated series, which is why the current rating is justified.
I'm just 2 episodes in the serie, and i felt compelled to write a review. Gen: Lock filled a void which was present in animated sci-fi genre. It has emotional depth, intelligent writing, excellent humor (most notably in Dr. Weller and Miguel Garza as comic relief), and likable characters that are wonderfully casted. It feels like a lovechild of Robotech, Ghost In The Shell and XCOM, so what's there not to like?

Wow talk about a strong start. The pilot episode gives just info information so you're not lost while still building the world and characters to satisfactory levels. All the while it still doesn't forget the action.
So far I like all the characters, even the ones we've only gotten glimpses into, and that says a lot, as I'm usually quite picky on characters in my favourite genres, 'of which this qualifies.

- TriviaIn video production, a "genlock" is a device used to synchronize two sets of video signals. The availability of cheap consumer-grade genlock hardware (in the form of the Amiga computer) is what first made fan subtitling of anime possible. The genlock allowed fansubbers to overlay the subtitle video signal on top of the source video signal, then record the subtitled video to a videocassette.
