(One episode watched):
How many times have I seen it before? A new series which begins with a prologue which has a serious, dark, frightening tone--and quickly devolves to an inane and juvenile one. Perhaps the message is that if we endure the predictable fluff we'll be rewarded by the story getting serious again in the last episode or two. But the price is far too high. Throughout episode one I was on the lookout for something that would make QC different from the rest, but it never came. The nearest thing was the fact that the protagonist is a kind of arrogant, stuck-up guy, but I didn't sense anything being done with that. Even at the end of the episode there still hadn't been anything of interest. No questions that I wanted an answer to had arisen, no LOL jokes had appeared, no interesting characters had been introduced, and nothing particularly novel had occurred. There had been plenty of fancy terminology, but I didn't care what the terms meant since I didn't sense the answers would have any value. The episode was mainly composed of a fanciful battle with globular pink things which never managed to harm anyone--were these the same creatures that appeared in the grim prologue? It all seemed like little more than target practice--a game rather than a battle. At the end, I could only ask myself, whose idea was this? The humor was too weak for this to be primarily a comedy, but the plot seemed totally unoriginal and uninteresting. At least fanservice was kept within reason. I am not really angry at this show, I just find it to be inexplicable. What legs was it supposed to stand on?
