Rokka no Yuusha (Braves of the Six Flowers) is so good, like Holy SHIT. It's not that popular in this Summer anime season it sickens me..!
I checked it out, the first episode was crap, almost dropped it midway, but it picked up later, with another shitty episode somewhere in the second half.
Certainly not the best of this season or even a close contender like you claimed, but good series otherwise.
So, thanks, I guess.
Cliffhangers are terrible.
Very poor blending of 3D into the rest of the animation.
