Cool. The movie kind of left things open, so I look forward to seeing more.

I think the original series was okay.

Haven't seen the movie yet but might give it a shot along with this sequel.

Considering the movie pretty much rips everything apart and restarts it anew, what with spoiler[ hivemind Festum vs Festum with independence versus humanity, ] It's not that surprising.

The series was good but I didn't think it was that good to justify a TV series. Did it do well in JP?

It's pretty much needed. The series starts you off in the middle of an onion and you peel back the layers outwardly as you watch, in two directions. And by the end of the movie, you're still in the damn onion.

This is my thought, basically. I enjoyed the initial series, but didn't think it warranted all the extras after. So I guess it must still be popular?

The movie would have been a nice place to end it, but I guess I'll take another TV series too.

i barely even remember what this series was about, but i don't remember it being all that amazing to deserve a 26 episode sequel. There are much more deserving ones.

First series was rough and I don't think I can ever get myself to watch the movie.
