I'll be completely honest I have a soft spot in my anime heart for anything and everything battle maids and I couldn't help myself from watching Sacred Seven all the way through.  Read any other review of the series and you'll understand that Sacred Seven was not the most liked anime series of the last season and really they are pretty right.  It's a bottom shelf anime series that was a good enough to just waste some time on.  A bit rushed at times and a bit to cliched at times. 

If you judged the popularity of a series based on how much fanservice fans create a quick look to see only a couple pages worth is a clear indicator of just how unpopular the series was.  So yeah it's not a very popular series and yet I still watched it to the end.  Why?  Probably because it had so much potential but got trapped in the cliched duldrums of school based mecha battle blah blah blah lets toss in some romance harem stuff for good measure. However, I did love the talking rock with the visible wording and what have you.  That and the battle maids for me made it worth it. 

The character development was rushed or just tossed out the window occasionally.  At times you were left wondering why this person was doing this and that.  So it really did just become too jumbled with various characters and their role in the series.  And then add to that the double end and redemption of the original bad guy you left at the end wondering exactly what the hell just happened. 

You can still watch the series on Crunchyroll and hulu if you want to check it out and if you really like personal mecha suits and the whole school life thing then it shouldn't be to bad to just waste some time with it since you don't have to wait until next week to see the rest.  If you want to know more about Sacred Seven I suggest reading the wiki page for it that does a better job than I would be able.

 Here are a couple trailers for the series.
