    I have basically learned that anime companies suck at describing shows. Though through average good verse holy crap this is painfully bad ratio in Japanese animation, probably only one of those will be good, one will be watchable but not good and the rest will be used to melt peoples minds.

    I miss just having normal Japanese TV. So many bad TV shows that were so worth watching.

    Sometimes I think you chaps are very divorced from reality. When you were 13 did you not date and flirt and all that? When you see two teenagers holding hands walking down the street do you not go "Ah, young love"?

    No honestly, my anime watching has slowed down considerably in the last couple years.

    Looking at season lists the last time I really watched a series was when Darker then Black and Nnemosyne were on so 2008ish

    Nothing really has interested me since.

    When I was 13 I was busy not being a "mature" 16 year old highschool guy who all the 13 year old girls in my class wanted to date.

    And, (at least in the series I haven't seen the movie) the two 13 year olds do nothing more than hold hands and maybe, at the very end, kiss, if memory serves.

    Romeo and Juliet is perfectly fine, even though Juliet was 13, but OMG anime is soooo pervy because two 13yos like each other.

    It's been in my cart on Amazon for months... actually, it might be on Netflix.

    Personally I though it fell off in the second half,

    this is a fantastic description of how I feel about it
    The mecha adventure RideBack (2009) takes place in 2025, when the sinister cabal GGP rules much of the world. Rin Ogata was a rising ballet star but sustained an injury that ended her career. She rediscovers the excitement dancing used to bring her when she begins piloting a RideBack, a robot-motorcycle hybrid. Applying the coordination and skills she learned in ballet, Rin forms a mystical bond with her machine as solid as any Gundam pilot's. She quickly surpasses the other riders at her college, even reigning champion Tamayo Kataoka. But those piloting skills get her into trouble when she and her roommate Shoko find themselves caught between the "antiterrorist" forces of the GGP and the rebels of the BMA. RideBack often feels like two series spliced together. Rin's journey to regain her confidence is an interesting and original shojo adventure--her back story provides a convincing reason for her piloting skills, unlike the usual superstacked female mecha jockeys. The BMA-led revolt against the dictatorial GGP is just a standard-issue sci-fi saga with fanatics on both sides seeking revenge. The filmmakers don't have enough time to tell either story well in just 12 episodes--the underdeveloped subplot involving collusion between the leader of the GGP in Japan and the mecha manufacturer feels tacked on. But despite its flaws RideBack has a spark of originality many recent anime titles lack. (TV 14: brief nudity, violence, violence against women, torture, alcohol use) --Charles Solomon

    I think it falls under the rule, "fans ruin everything." Even though many of shows that become popular do not oversexualize the characters the fan base does. A lot of the merchandising ends up sexualizing a lot under age characters as well to sell to such people. And there is a subset of anime which does sexualize the underage characters.

    The show you are talking about isn't one of those. In fact many aren't. But between the fans and the subset that does it is pretty easy to point to Japan and go, "WTF is wrong with you?"
