Interesting dynamic action show with impressive creative visual art. Cool vehicles, monsters and air ships. Complex poorly explained world makes it difficult to understand the confusing plot and motivation of characters. Ending is not entirely satisfying because as we/viewers learn more about the world it makes less sense... Despite that, the show is not boring, partially driving attention by unfulfilled promise of explanations.
Some good not over-exaggerated drama is somewhat spoiled by unethical human experimentation. Occasional good short dialogues, rich for notable quotes:
Children are the bonds that hold a marriage together.
Failing to value the lives of others cheapens your own.
Real strength means knowing the lives of others are more important than your own.
Everyone becomes an aggressor in times of war, and we all share the burden of sin.
If there were words for it, I said them with my heart.
Don't hide anything from your parents except your first love.
If your God orders you to perform a sinful act, should you do it?
You'll stay alive for as long as you praise a woman's cooking.
Indulging your hatred won't make you happy.
