Just finished Texhnolyze. Anyone want to point out what makes it one of the best anime ever made? I'm willing to entertain the idea that I was just too stupid to get it, but how? Most of the show is drab shallow mafia shit and then when it goes all surreal/avant-garde at the end you have no reason to care because none of the characters were well explored. It honestly comes off like something an edgy teenager would make. Why was Ichise so fixated on Ran at the end when they didn't have any relationship and barely spoke?

>11 episodes into Texhnolyze
>STILL no characterization
>"dialogue" = old men discussing the plot cryptically
>MC has 1 line per episode
>literal slideshow animation with the color palette of 2000s FPS games
Did I get successfully memed by teenagers or something? This is supposed to be an anime classic? Even if it was to make an incredible turnaround (doubt), the first handful of episodes being this shit automatically disqualifies it from being a top tier show.

>watch 2 episodes of Texhnolyze
>guns, sex, violence, no comedy, color palette ranges from brown to black, characters barely talk or only say cryptic bullshit

This is like a parody of maturity, do weeaboos actually believe this is what adult storytelling look like? There are episodes of Pokemon more mature than this.
