The anime has its charms. Even through its lesser moments. I dunno. I really enjoy it still. Maybe its preference, or just me.
Everything has flaws, and it comes down to what you enjoy.
Every anime is different, and most have charms in their own way.
Like every controversial anime. Take sao. Half (or more) dislike it for reasons, others think its the greatest thing ever, and a few see flaws, but enjoy it regardless.
I would just say give it a chance, and see if its your slice of bread.
