>>31223It's one of the worst Gundam shows (if not the worst). At least something like SEED Destiny still had ambitions and concepts that felt original at the time before it derailed and went full Kira-wank|slash|every-other-episode-is-a-recap-episode. G-Reco (the TV show) was too overwhelming and obtuse, so many people dropped it, but the creator had a vision which you might appreciate or not. IBO is often cited as a hated show because of the ending (which I actually liked), but it definitely felt refreshing when it was airing. There is not a single element in The Witch that stands out beyond mediocrity. Everything has been done elsewhere and better, the show doesn't try to be original in any element - it's even self-aware in how much of a copy it is (aping specific Utena and the first MSG shots). It's a mecha show aimed specifically at moe otaku and yurishippers, who don't care for the story, robots, sci-fi concepts or war drama and are content with walking and talking tropes for characters. It's such a lazy show and it gets away with it because of the target audience.
