 Aldnoah.Zero is a [[lb:mecha]] [[lb:anime]] about Martians invading the Earth. The Martians are, however, not aliens but humans who happened to discover ancient alien tech on Mars. The Terrans are stuck as the underdogs in the series, forced to outsmart the Martians, who have insane technology.\\
 The series has a strange storyline (downright contrived...) and weird worldbuilding, for good measure.

 Unfortunately, the perceived threat-level of the Martians decreases fast over the course of the series. This mostly stems from the fact the Martians are morons - an obvious and serious writing flaw.\\
 I found the insert songs to be awkwardly inserted and poorly timed.\\
-The second season <wrap spoiler>pretends the end of the first season doesn't happen by undoing most of it</wrap>. Surprisingly, I didn't mind this as much as I expected to at the time, but it irritates me more as time goes on. This is mostly because <wrap spoiler>the ending of the first season is quite daring...and then the second season just undoes it</wrap>. I'd compare it to [[playground:codegeass]] in this regard, as I believe it achieves <wrap spoiler>the transition from the first season's cliffhanger ending to the start of the second season</wrap> better than Aldnoah.Zero.

 The second season generally fails to make the Martians as threatening as they were at the very beginning of the series. While there is a brief moment where the Martians start regaining their threat level, the series <wrap spoiler>brings back the MC after his little break, and him and his robot eye completely destroy the Martians</wrap>. I'd say this is a shame, as the series could have been much better in this regard.\\
 I do think I overall still like the series, and I would recommend giving it a watch.
