Overall a very watchable series, with an ending, if imperfect.
Pros: -Animation. (strong colors, characters, etc) -Music. (Fantastic score, opening and closing credits) -Initial plot. (Some Trope use, but the politics was a nice angle)
Cons: -Starts to loose it's way in season 2. -Tropes. -Ending Plot some really hate. -Very "short" Ending.
It Falls under a number of genre categories (Action, dystopia, political thriller, some mecha etc)

Pros:
The story, while not entirely original, is well executed and well built.
The characters have their own depth and there is great character development throughout the series.
Contrary to what other reviewers have said, I loved the ending, tho I felt it was a bit rushed. Most of the animes that I have watched have average endings but, guilty crown has one the most well built and satisfying endings that I have ever seen.
The animation is pretty good with well executed fight scenes.
The soundtrack is amazing and the music that is played during action scenes, really adds to the experience.
Cons: The story is pretty similar to code geass, and in comparison, isn't handled as well Some plot points were not explained properly and it seemed as there were some character decisions only for plot convience.
All in all, as other reviews have already suggested, this show contains many similarities to Code Geass. However, guilty crown is a great anime in it's own regard and i would defineltly recommed it to any anime fan. As such, i wourld reccommend keeping an open mind and to not compare the show to Code Geass. The 7.1 rating doesn't do the show justice as it definetly amongst the better fantasy/sci-fi animes out there and it is highly underated.

The anime looks beautiful and has some good fight scenes. However, trying to understand the plot (especially in the second halve) is near impossible.
Plot twist after plot twist. Everyone good is apparently evil and then good again.
Except for the guy that killed his sister's husband out of pure jealousy and then tries to destroy the world because of the same reason. And who or what is the Daath guy??

Deserves much more...before watching read the reviews but was really disapointed and after watching the anime i can say that it was worth it. Nice anime.
I just finished watching guilty crown and i must say i am baffled. The idea in the first place is very original and very exciting. The anime does an excellent job of portraying the events and expressing the idea. The animations and soundtrack are terrific and the dubb quality is top of the notch. One will find many discouraging reviews for this show. I say that they are right to a certain degree, the characters could use more development but otherwise it would be a ten over ten. The ending is very satisfying and not too rushed. There are a few plot twists along the way and the story is very exciting. As i said before, the only drawback is the lacking character development in some cases. Animations: 10 Soundtrack: 10 Events: 9 Character Development: 7 Dub and Sub quality(English): 10 Overall score: 9/10
