ikr?

it's because most ppl think it's bad right off the bat just from looking at the promo pics, the first ep and the fact that it's a spin-off of ZKC (which not many ppl know about) :(

what can i say. we can only spread the word about how awesome it is


I agree with both of you. I have watched/read the parent series and I love this spin-off.

Back then when I saw the PV pics I thought this was gonna be "meh" . And when I found out this was gonna be a SPINOFF and made by MANGLOBE , I thought , "This is gonna be soooo dumb" , because of the train wreck they had done for Hayate just last season .
^This is probably the reason or what's in the mind of a lot of ppl why this show is so underrated .

But still , I kept my hopes up because this is from ZKC and knowing that Hyoubu is gonna be the MC , I told myself to check it out .

And oh man , I was so wrong and glad that I hold on and checked this out .

I watched ZKC and I have to say, without Hyobu it would had been boring!
Now with Hyobu as the main character its one of the best shows I am looking forward to continue watching this year.

The first episode immediately made me fall in love - wish they showed some more prison adventures. So far, the series is pretty good - the only thing I don't like are the "Children." Those female characters just feel like they're tossed in there. Couldn't they have thought up a better rival for them instead of some teenage girls?

You mean overrated. Despite the fact that it's a spinoff of that horrible show Zettai Karen Children, it is average. Just average, nothing has been great so far and will probably never be because of the characters and setting.

The original anime was horrendous to me but this spin off I feel is the best anime of the season!

The scope of "ZKC" is much more grand than what was shown in the first anime (which was somewhat adjusted for a younger audience and comedy-oriented). The Unlimited spin-off is actually much closer to the original ZKC with its darker mood and themes.
If that's the case then I'm glad I decided to read the manga when this is over instead of watch the anime.

I didn't know anything about ZKC before, actually thought it seemed really stupid, but after watching this and reading more into ZKC (Kyousuke, the future, Kaoru, etc.) I'm just so in love with it all. Really can't think of anything that I dislike so far, which is extremely rare.

Heh. Can't agree more here.
Why the hell nobody else seems to watch it?
Even in anime blogosphere, you can't hardly find somebody blogged it.

This anime is awesome.
People think less of it must be because of ZKC anime.
They should try reading the manga.
This anime is a good companion to the manga.
I find myself looking forward for each episode.
This week's episode is especially good.
It's refreshing to see the past of Fujiko and Kyousuke got animated.
Please come soon, next Sunday!

i dropped this show 4 episodes into it, it got extremely boring after a very good first episode. i dont usually drop shows(ive only dropped one my entire life) but with my busy schedule i couldnt continue it, had it been better and not the same generic stuff you see in these types of anime, i would have made time for it.

I love this show, and I have gotten almost all of my anime friends and family into it as well. It hasn't been since Code Geass that I have waited in anticipation for every episode.
I had been in an anime drought till this series, and now all of a sudden I'm back in the swing and even getting back into anime music (Yes, I have all OP and ED for this show, as well as recent character singles), and for that I'm grateful. I'm however, I'm not really surprised that no one gave it a chance at first. It a spin-off of a show that no one's heard of, let alone watched. I only gave it a chance because I read a review on ANN.

I did try the original ZKC and wasn't impressed. In fact the only parts about the original I like were the episodes Hyoubu was actually in. I doubt I will read the manga either because the magical girl genre really isn't my thing. However, if they were to make a manga along the lines of this show, I actually might consider it.

I think however, that this show is slowly being brought into the forefront. I've been seeing more and more people check it out, and have about 4 anime blogs that are covering it. Word of mouth is helping it along bit by bit.

Maybe because winter is usually a lackluckster season (general viewship is down across the board) and every is occupied with Pyscho-pass at the moment.
For me, this anime and Love Live! are two hidden highlights of this season. I'm sure more and more people will notice this over time

I try to shy away from animes that involves a minority group being targeted for their differences because it usually tends to make me depress/on the edge of crying when the anime series end.another thing is that my cultural background is sort of like this "hmong" not that it matter since ive watched x'am: lost memories, Towa no Quon series...
I desire money. Not because I am poor or because I am greedy. It is because with money I will gain power and with that power I will be able to change the world.

But ive got to say at least that this is classified as the least 'generic' crap show this season has to offer .

Don't think the anime is overrated but pretty accurate surprisely especially coming from MAL XD.
Love the animation of esper powers though. The plot is kinda abstract and cliche, but nevertheless the action scenes and the series as a whole is still pretty entertaining

7 or 8 though a 8 would be pretty generous of me :3

How is it not underrated when it's beaten by Vividred, Sasami, Oreshura, Tamako, Amnesia and the likes?

Weird. Even though it's such an awesome anime. During the time I write this, the latest episode got rated as 5/5 by all the visitors, and 0 vote for all other scores. This is the first time I saw such an unified opinions towards an anime.

It's a decent series for me, but I don't find it underrated by any means. Then again, my standards are quite high when it comes to action shows (it would have to be really good for me give it a rating of 7 or above).

That's not underrated for this anime. If anything you should be happy it's even that high.

It's not just about the score. "This series just doesn't get much attention than it deserves" is probably what they meant. A popularity ranking of 1252 seems so low, IMO.

If it were not for the fact that Manglobe is animating this, I wouldn't have noticed this show at all.
