Honestly, if you think this anime just plain sucks, you just don't get it and are mad about it... Please don't be.
Before you watch: Think of this as a coming of age story with the craziest twist a writer could think of. Also, if you don't make it to the end (pretty hard considering the fact that it only takes a few hours) you won't be giving it the chance it deserves.
The prurient attitude is a bit too far for the age involved, which is why it only got a 4 in story (which actually started out as a three, until I remembered the end), so is the robot. Seriously! A ROBOT? too, schtick-y - too much of a cliche for anime - but the rest of the plot: enigmatic, divine, completely inspired, I have no idea who would have thought of such a brilliant place to put a wormhole, but, MY GOD, it's almost entirely what made me want to view each piece. The only writing that comes close is Paranoia Agent.
I wish someone would create an "Unusual Plot" keyword section, granted, many things would be placed in it that wouldn't be any near the same level, but how else do you put FLCL, Paranoia Agent, Hell Girl, Hakaba Kitaro, and Trigun (some of my favs.) in the same category? There have to be others I'm missing because the keywords I find interesting aren't relatable, or just not attatched, with what I'd like to see.
