I'm confused to whether you hated it or recommend it in a "So bad, It's good" way. Whichever it is I'm still living a K-ON! free life so I'll probably look at that before I even consider this.
Now to decide which show has a dumber premise. The one with catgirl samurais or the one with trumpeting soldiers.

Not recommending it thus far. It's cold and slimy, but I'm giving it another episode before I drop it.
The thing about K-ON! was that it had a certain knowing charm. It knew how dumb it was and took every opportunity to be silly and funny and totally inconsequential. Here it sounds like they've tipped that balance into pandering idiocy. I'll still give it a shot.
Wow, most people Ive talk to are comparing it to Haibane and Kino, which of course are huge complements. The score was wonderful, the backgrounds beautiful, the characters likable, and the promise of an intriguing storyline was set up as well. It's a damn shame you couldn't see past the K-on!/moe hang-up you seem to have to see what was really going on with this show.
@Rinshu That's why I'm not dropping it yet. I hear those comparisons, and I say "ok, show me what you've got." First episode did not hook me at all, though.
I thought the first episode was a bit boring but not enough to make me drop it. I'll continue to watch it in hopes the story picks up and we get some pew-pew in this moe-filled world.
I hope we get to see that tank in action.

Still not interested, when all these moe soldiers kill their moe friends in the name of a moe cause, that's when I'll perk my ears up and start listening.
Ok, watched the first episode. I didn't think it was as bad as some are saying. It probably won't be up there with kimi no todoke, but it seems no worse then the average slice of life series.
Not interested. Now if characters start dying as they portray the tolls of war on the mindsets of the people, then I'll start checking it out.
I will admit though, that is some fine scenery porn.

Ugh, we've had enough "war is evil" shows. I'm hoping this series portrays the military in a positive light, instead of simply stereotyping them as an evil bureaucratic war machine.
It'd be fun to see how in the beginning all the characters are really high-energy and innocent, though as the story progresses and the war begins to take it's toll, they slowly go from that to manic, scared and traumatized. I'd say it'd be an interesting way to turn the whole 'moe slice of life' trend on it's head.
I was somewhat suprised by this. I went into it expecting a clean copy of K-On, but what I got felt somewhat unique. Not to mention although early screenshots had me skeptical, the actual artwork is amazing at times, which is always a plus.
However, I'm guessing it's going to quickly go down the K-On route quickly with the "BFF" stuff. Hopefully not, and hopefully it'll have a more intriguing story, some elements of the first episode could prove promising yet.
