And then it never did and I watched the final episode and was just disappointed that I wasted all that time watching it when it was so bad.
Bleach was kind of the same way but a bit more of a letdown because the first arc is actually genuinely good. It's not perfect, but it's interesting and has lots of cool characters. And then...all that goes down the toilet.
Star Ocean EX was disappointing only in that it ended on a cliffhanger because a second season never got made.
Don't you be dissin' Magical Girl Lyrical Nanoha. I might have to challenge you to a duel.

btw, do girls watch them? I mean is it wierd? (i know girls watch shonen, but shows like Air and puella magika madoka are'nt shonen, they are a seinen sub culture.) because i am a girl and i want to know if it's strange to watch these shows. (I don't at the moment, but clannad has been recomended alot)
