To be honest I wanted to stop watching this anime after the first few episodes mainly because of the main character. I decided to give it a chance to see if it would change as I expected it to, sure enough it did. Compared to the other mecha anime I have seen this is very poor. The anime did not follow the story from the manga but this is nothing new. After I finished this anime I didn't regret taking the time to watch it... but it is not something I would go out of my way for nor would I re-watch it.
