Takopi's Original Sin unsat Violet Evergarden series + 2020 movie as my top 1 when I finished it last week. It's not perfect perfect, yet I fail to think of any other non-movie anime that is as consistent and complete in its overall quality as this.

WfM just wasn't for me. Give me my giant robots beating the shit out of one another with some war stories and politics sprinkled in. And since I've never been a high school girl with a budding relationship with another girl that part also didn't interest me.

But WfM biggest offense for me and makes it an anime that I actually dislike instead of one that just isn't for me; it's more loudly vocal fans. The ones who try and snub old school Gundam, IBO, and Thunderbolts. Are all of WfM fans that way? No, of course not. My wife loved WfM and sat with me through IBO and not once did she say IBO was worse.
