Really nice anime. At first when i saw the picture i thought it would not be as nice, and also because i was already watching a lot of on-going animes at that point, i thought this anime could not have compared to the other animes i chose to watch. But after seeing the manga cover in Kinokuniya, i just had this gut feeling that i just had to watch the anime. After i watched the anime, i really regretted not having watching it from the time it first came out, but one thing that was good was that it already had 13 episodes so i did not have to wait. I really find that this anime is better when u watch it one shot,
I really love how the anime really made each character have a unique personality, and they really stand out from each other, making it easier to remember and identify each character, even at the beginning. However, in the beginning, it seemed like they had not really figure out the teacher's character yet, but it all worked out in the end. 
At first i really thought that, based on the pictures, Akiho (the girl in the picture) would be the main character, but it turned at that Kaito was the main character.
I really loved how each episode is packed with suspense and unexpected events. I find that there are a lot of twist and turns in the anime. Though, i must say that they way they start each episode is really dissapointing. Since they usually end with a cliff-hanger, most people would be super interested in the next episode, how ever when the next episode is out and it turns out to be below their expectations, because they always start of randomly. It really destroys the whole mood. Also the one thing that i could not overlook was the fact that Nae could defeat Yoshio in Kill-bad so easily. They should at least make him distracted for a second or something. I really liked the pace of the whole anime in the front part. But when it comes to the part where everything links together, I think that they should have paced the anime more equally, and I really thought that they should have put more emphasize and time into the last few part, because I think that that is the main point of the whole anime. I really think that they should have properly showed the whole past about Kimijima Kou and Senomiya. They should at least have a whole episode on it. Really thought that they should have ended in 24 episodes instead of 22. 
I think what i loved most about this anime was the purpose and the plot club members building the huge robot, Kimijima Kou, and about Frau's mother going missing. Even if all of these started at different timings and does not seem to link (in the beginning), they all start to link together and will eventually form a single event. I really love these type of plots, because it really requires a lot of planning before hand, and that is what i feel that makes an anime or manga more interesting and attractive.

Not very nice (I did not like the way they draw their eyes), however, it's unique and characters does not seem stiff at all, although in the beginning the teacher's face was a little stiff. Really loved how they designed the robots, really unique and original.
