Do I recommend Nadesico? Yes, but kinda. Nadesico is a classic mecha anima based a lot on other even more classic mecha anime, but it doesn't stand up to those inspirations, it traies to do too much at the same time and in the end it doesn't do any of those things really right, it has charming aspects but overall it feels like a jumbled mix of a lot of ideas that don't function that well together. When the series tries to do it's story seriously it's actually great, but every time it pivots to something else it crumbles imensely. So overall, Nadesico is great at a fewpoints, but it loses itself on so many other that is difficult to praise it more.
