Like its predecessors, this series is flawed. Chocked full of cliches and bizarre choices, this australian adventure starts out on questionable ground. That's not to say its bad. Like the movies, it overcomes a lot of cheesiness and logical inconsistencies to be something that works, but it's in spite of those qualities, not because of them.

Fans are quick to overlook these short comings because, hey, we're here for the giant robots, but it's hard to argue that the series wouldn't be more worthwhile with some better character foundation and development. Especially since we really don't get all that much kaiju battling in the 7 episodes so far.

While the fantastical anime elements are new, one would hope the point of extending on 2 movies would be to spend less time world building. However, for now I'm optimistic about the established base the first season sets up. Thankfully, we're granted at least one more season, but we'll have to see how much of this actually pays off.
