The occasional interesting idea
Light and Mia. Both very annoying to watch and have a lack of coherent motivation and general characterization (3 more)
Aesthetically bland
Tone is very confused. This movie has no idea what it wants to be
Rushed plotting, things happen too quick. This is made worse by the laughable twists at the end.
As someone who's never watched this anime, this is awful

Worth the struggle
A classic of course. From an academic perspective, it is interesting to read this and look at the flaws caused by the limited knowledge at the time of writing. Without knowledge of DNA or genetics in general, there is a lot of guesswork here. But still this is a great book, and a great starting point for someone wanting to learn more about the world of evolution.

I loved the general storyline. The places he went, the things he saw, the people he met. (0 more)
Unfortunately, over 3/4 of this book is simply him talking about how great he is, or how much everyone loved him, or trying to be unsuccessfully poetic. I had to skim most of it because he was driving me crazy! (0 more)
This book could have been half as long and twice as enjoyable.
