I was just IMing with Lyn about this and was going to post something I just said to her about Robin. So here goes.

Robin's been a very interesting show for me. Because it was looking like just an episodic show with a little bit of mysterious stuff going on. And I think that was really more serving to just fully set the scene. This is one of the things that has appealed to me in a lot of anime I've seen. I like that they don't always feel the need to give you the whole plot right upfront. Some people complain that shows are too slow (and in some cases they are, .hack//SIGN for instance), but I don't mind at all when there is a good story being told.

Now if they'll just hurry up and get the latest episode out.
