antifascist themes? sicko-yes environmental preservation subtext? jerma-herbivore coming of age story where characters actually act their age? mario-thumbs-up che guevara character that monologues about what the events mean? joker-che FLYING SURFING MECHA? lets-fucking-go banger fucking soundtrack? spongebob-party

ok downsides are - the first 10 episodes are pretty rough honestly aside from the first two. weird 2000s anime tropes and some anime weirdness with women but this does develop out well as the characters do. some of the characters are strange stereotypic designs (black guy who djs and wears basketball shirt) but the characters absolutely are not standard tropes in their own way.

either way i recommend a watch and try not to cringe too much during the first arc

    I love Eureka Seven so much! A simple sweet love story that hits me in the feels a little too hard. Not to go off topic, but have you ever seen Xam’d? A lot of people compare it to Eureka Seven for some odd reason. Not many people saw it when it came out because it was released exclusively on the Ps3 streaming service that Sony tried to push a long time ago.
