The animation and story (you thought it was dumb?) but it eventually becomes hindered by weak characters and slow plot. Oh! The music is EPIC.

The animations are eyecandy and the soundtrack is sweet too. Plot pacing could have been better though.

Of course I did! You seriously expect I believe it was Yuu's duty to protect that girl? She was pretty much a stranger...His character didn't seem very consistent, and in general Yuu's step into the plot looked forced (I almost laughed at the part in which Inori tells him "Use me").

... Well, the OST does sound good...ehe...but there's a lot of anime with great animation...

Characters are awful. Plot is weak. 2nd half is awful. Music is amazing. Animations are pretty good.

The characters are so badly written and the plot just keeps getting worse and seems to become like Swiss cheese by the 2nd half.

It does have its bad point but you are making it sound like it's crap. I liked it. OST is amazing. Story too. It is slow paced but the first and last parts are pretty solid

Aside from the great music and animation it's nothing special.

Truth be told I actually enjoyed it quite a bit, although it's probably true that this is because I had honestly expected this to be a terrible series from the bashing I'd heard. I thoroughly enjoyed it though.

Guilty Crown does have its unnecessary fanservice and the characters do seem inconsistent at times but I'd still say that on the whole it's a good series. Shu develops a lot as the story goes on and the plot, while far from being perfect, was pretty enjoyable all things considered. The characters aren't the most stellar I've seen but most of them are treated pretty well and the only one I had major problems with in terms of development was Inori because her personality felt all over the place and it was hard to point out her thoughts at any given time. There were a lot of parallels to Code Geass, which some might claim as "ripping it off" although I felt that Guilty Crown had its own elements that separated it from Geass. After all, Shu is no Lelouch by any means. Truth be told I viewed Guilty Crown as a mix between Geass and Evangelion actually.

It's a bit hard for me to explain why I enjoyed this series since even I'm not so sure exactly why I liked it so much. But regardless I'd say it's worth watching overall even though many out there hate it. I'd say the first 15 or so episodes are the strongest, and I didn't like the last stretch of the series as much but even that's not too bad and has its moments.

Only the fighting and Music are really good, everything else bad enough to make me cringe
MC crying the ENTIRE series about how no one understands him
Lets everyone walk all over him
It also has a very anticlimactic end just for the sake of having one

I've finished it and man, I have mixed feelings about it. The visuals and audio are definitely top notch, but I'm afraid that's all what I found good about the anime.
