This anime has a lot of great things like decent ost, interesting characters and story. Yet,i felt the story execution was horrible. Several episodes went to loss and reveal nothing. Interaction between characters has no impactful feelings. It's just sad knowing this anime could have been bigger if the story had had a better direction.

@Sekiro94 the ending is okay. But the story was meh. It had its moments though. And don't let forget the pace. It was very goddamn slow.

This show was such a massive disappointment to me. its done by bones who have such an amazing catalogue, at first the premise was interesting, and potential character interactions seemed interesting. then it just became dull and boring. truly felt like wasted potential

Honestly for something that I reverse image search from a dumb gif, a story of reconciliation and coming to term with something is way above my expectations

I'm inclined to somewhat agree with Raizer007's post, especially the middle and latter episodes seemed to be wasting time, I think it's funny that for more than half the show the crew of the post office ship, that initially were built up as our main supporting caste of characters, were shipwrecked and essentially spent most of the series doing nothing. I also feel that the anime killed/got rid of several characters way too soon. The pacing was a bit off, it was far too fast in the first 3 or so episodes were we didn't even have time for proper worldbuilding (who the north and south are, were Senten island falls in that bunch, why are they fighting a war) before the action starts, but several episodes after 13 were wayyy too slow.

I hope I'm not being overly negative, I actually did enjoy large parts of Xam'd. The animation was great, the characters were interesting, the character designs were fairly unique, the op and ed were bangers. I just feel that the sum of the parts was greater than that actual end result we ended up having, and that's what made the show slightly disappointing for me.

It’s a good anime, but yeah, I think that’s the big problem with this anime.

It had so much potential that it didn’t utilize.
If I had to choose between One Piece and a girlfriend...I think I'll go with One Piece
