It could have been a great anime, the story is good, it reminds me a bit of Neon Genesis, it had so much potential, but fell short and ended up being an average one full of high school cliche.
The wasted potential is what made me angry. There is a samurai from 450 years ago that of course needs to go to high school, the Earth is in grave danger from the attacking aliens, but the elite warriors the only ones who could stand against the aliens well need to go to a culture festival or on a school trip to visit the hot springs...
Also one of the schoolgirls fights alongside of her....butler, seriously and they are one of the elite soldiers, when not on a school trip or festival or other cliche moments...Many characters are one-dimensional, like Yukina's mother, so painful to watch the soulless dialogs.
I watched some episodes on fast-forward because I completely lost interest in how they butchered this piece and just jumped to pieces where the story advances which again was good.
