Is Eureka Seven a seinen anime?
Eureka Seven is an 50 episode action-packed sci-fi shonen anime, featuring mechas. Though after watching it, I would think that it should be defined as seinen, due to the bat-shit crazy story.
Does Eureka ever show up in the story?
It takes awhile for Eureka to show up in the story, and even longer for Renton, but the “family reunion” episode hit me right in the feels and was everything I could’ve asked for.
What’s so bad about Eureka Seven?
The pacing (or lack thereof) is probably the most glaring of Eureka Seven’s faults, and one of the main reasons why my feelings for the series swung between love and hate so fast I should probably have myself checked for whiplash. At points, the show builds action and intrigue up with finesse and expertise.
What if Eureka Seven ran a marathon?
If Eureka Seven were to run a marathon, it would alternate between a record-shattering sprint and an exhausted limp, looking on in genuine surprise as other runners overtake it by moving at a consistent jog.
