I completely agree on this, the series is funny, thought out, well animated, sometimes a bit too heavy on the swearing and one other thing: it legitimately continues the plot of Warhammer 40k, set on the dusk of the 41st millenium for over 25 years by now. The idea of the Emperor finally gaining a means to communicate with his subjects again and starting to actually "Get shit done" as 4chan's /tg/ likes to say is well executed, with the most imcompetent pieces of the Imperium (the Inquisition) rooted out and the Emperor himself learning about the Imperium's failings first to solve them later. He even tries to reunite with his remaining sons, first of which is Magnus the Red.
All in all, "insert awesome face here".

Absolute. Brilliance.
It's impossible not to love it. Voice acting is of unusually high quality, animation is really good - especially after second season bump - and the plot and action are just... amazing.
Most important of all, it's funny for both fans of Warhammer 40,000 and those who don't know it all that well. For the former, picking up all the universe references is enormous fun and Alfabusa doesn't shy away from throwing them in. For the latter, it's a really good "gateway drug" into the world of W40K - that's how I became a fan, anyway - and you don't have to know all the tiny minutiae of the 'verse to laugh at the Emperor and Little Kitten.
The only con I could possibly find is that the Emperor's preference for swearing - a lot and loudly - might not make it very family- or workplace-safe, but all in all, it's only a minor thing. Watch it. Absolutely worth it.
