This show was going to be a 10/10 overall for me and then.....the last arc came. No spoilers, but I finished the show utterly depressed at the complete ruin of the potential of the show. I love scifi, I love first encounter stories, but I hate when they end up exactly how this did. Art, sound, animation, everything else is amazing though! At first I was nervous about the style/CG, but by the end, I was in love with it. I watched the OP and ED every single time because the music was so beautiful. But, in the end, if you want a show aboutreal negotiation, check out Yugo.
