Yes, the old discussion was too old to post in *tears*. But still, Eureka SeveN is an awesome animé. It has Mechs for the Mecha lovers, and some nice battle scenes, but it actually has character development that rivals Full Metal Alchemist (heck, it even ties for it). And I'm not kidding, either. I've seen all 50 episodes subbed, and this is one heck on an Animé. I'm glad they don't overload it with Mecha scenes either - they have each fight make sense, and it's not the usual "Defeat a different Mech each episode either.)
After you get past the "Filler"-like eps (Pretty much 4-9ish) everything just blasts off, and you don't get another filler (Except an eerie episode [#39] that seems like the animators just wanted to humorize/Parody Eureka SeveN a touch.
As for favorite character? Holland and Talho are some of my favs - though I love Renton and Eureka as well. (And another character later.. *cough*). Holland is just awesome, even though he can be a "you know what" a lot of the time.
XD And the kids.. they were brats in that episode, weren't they? I liked the voice actors for them - the girl's was especially snobbish. Maeter or whatever her name was.
