I wouldn't go as far, but it was disappointing, with an ending that was the nail to the coffin. Enokido seems to hate the characters he's created (as opposed to the existing ones he 'borrowed' from UC for his masturbatory fanfiction), because he relegated them to mere NPCs the further the show went on. I still don't understand how Shuuji came to be the dimensional janny was and who he was in Lalah's life to care for her so much. Even Char knows him...just because! The show couldn't even bother to focus on the romance when it's one of the few things Machu had going for her. Nyaan was a non-character - a design with a vague description. Shiiko received more characterisation and an arc than her. Sayla becoming the Zeon Queen with no build-up whatsoever cemented my opinion that I had been watching a half-assed story originating from a crappy AO3 fanfiction that had no justification of being turned into an anime.
