I really thought that it was just me, that maybe I was not patient enough, didn’t get the show enough time etc. I was wrong! Turns out a majority of the fans..well at least vocal fans agree. The show has zero heart, it feels like a mass-produced item from the assembly line made by robots instead of humans.

Is it that bad? No.

Will it make money? Yes and probably a bootload. I cannot blame them though, it will probably be a golden goose. Studios will have to take less risks given the horrible profit margins from anime. We might end up with more anime used as tie-ins in the future than as the main product which is sad.
