Meh, I guess so, the ending just didn't sit as well with me as I thought it would.

Speaking of endings, Psycho Pass and Robotics;Notes have both wrapped up. Psycho Pass' was great, but that's not what I'm going to address right now. Robotics;Notes ending was crap ! It just was boring and predictable, much like the series as a whole. Seriously, when I went to rate it and saw I had it at an 8 I thought "What the **** was I thinking?!" and bumped down to 6. Coming up is my review.

Robotics;Notes. When one sees the ";" in the name, their mind jumps straight to Steins;Gate and their hopes for it skyrocket, without any regard to the fact that the same company made Chaos;Head. Playing off this weakness, it seems 5pb tried to make Robotics;Notes into another Steins;Gate. Just one problem:

Robotics;Notes is not Steins;Gate.

The story is slow to start and would immediately turn off anyone who isn't familiar with 5pb's works. Even when the story starts to pick up, it is incredibly slow. 5pb continuously tried to liven things up with countless cliffhangers at the end of episodes, but were only successful in doing so when they decided to kill off one of the characters. This was successful until the end of the next episode when we stopped giving a **** since it was only a minor character. After that point it was just more boring plot development.

Characters are introduced slowly and developed even slower. While I thought the characters were better than the story, it wouldn't take much to beat this story. I found myself able to connect with characters every so often, but there was only one character that I could say I really liked (try to guess who).

The soundtrack, well, sound in general was probably the best part of the series. Music matched the moments, blah blah blah, let's wrap this up.

In the end, I felt like only a few people in the anime were really taking the events of the end serious, thus causing me to feel the same. "Oh no, the lives of 5 million people are at stake, hey wanna get some ice cream?" All in all a crappy, anticlimactic end to a subpar anime that even Chaos;Head was better than

3/5: Average

Heh, I couldn't make it through the first time, but I plan on trying again later. Let me know how it works for you.

Currently catching up on Zetsuen no Tempest. Fricken episode 13... I could've just watched the first 14 mins of that an wasted less time getting caught up.

Raikenzera has now added "Summary episodes" to his list of deadly anime sins.
