Okay, so that might be an overly narrow genre, but the show is pretty well done with a diverse cast and a fairly compelling story. If you like Ocean Punk or Mecha animes, you'll probably like this. The only real weakness I saw was the ending, when it turned out that the leader of the cult was the mecha's AI rather than the main character's commander- I'm not putting spoiler tags on that because it was so obviously foreshadowed that it really couldn't be seen as a surprise. And so the final battle ended up being a cliche over The Evils of Free Will rather than a more emotionally satisfying struggle where the main character would have actually been forced to examine his conflicting loyalties. Too bad.
Anime A decent ocean punk mecha
