Not sure what it says about me that spoiler[I'd probably check it out.]

Well you did watch the that Takoyaki princess anime right?

There is always that part of us that hopes things will get better. Even when some kid turns into a talking dog.

Well, the thing with this title is that it actually started out alright so I guess I'd check in just to see if that early semi-promise would ever be realized.

Hmph since I don't use the 1 - 10 scale and instead use the definition ANN has for each rating I gave this Decent. I guess Hitomis spoiler[motives to kill innocent people make a bit more sense now that he didn't have much time left.] So ummm.... I guess that was it. Moving on.

WHAT A NONSENSE.

spoiler[I mean, seriously, it is not possible to relate to Hitomi's reasons because those are blatantly crazy. There is nothing that connects his supposed wish to protect future "code breakers" and the idea of killing 50 000 unrelated people.]

This is why this show is very weak. Purely made up set of absurdities was fed to viewers in the hopes that they will not notice or "excuse" it because of cute puppy and cool bishonen with superpower.

Authors surely got lazy and/or stupid with this.

OVA 1

spoiler[Valentine's day & White Day theme.
Sakura was really popular with the guys.
Ogami missed out 'cause of Sakura.
Toki bagged a pretty big amount of chocolates.
This ova was totally about choco and fan service.
Nyanmaru special was kinda fun to watch and LOL]

Lol, OVA 1 would of been better if they released it on spoiler[Valentines] this month. Otherwise, it was kinda meh.

I just finished watching Ep 11 and based on what I have seen so far plus the comments here I wonder if it is worth finishing. Hitomi is just not believable as a villain -- nobody who has an outlook like he showed in the backstory could get to the jihadist/fanatic mindset just like that.

And hearing that girl cry out "That's Wrong!" one more time is going to make me punch a hole in the wall. Hopefully I would miss my expensive monitor.

I believe most people have a fairly low regard for Code:Breaker, overall. I doubt you'll miss anything by dropping it now, and you may save your monitor from a sudden, violent death and save money on wall repairs (not to mention a possible broken hand).
