I hope you don't mind my opinion on it:
It's really new, it aired last season, so that's why you haven't heard of it before.
Animation and visuals are pretty much top-notch.
I personally couldn't get into it. It wasn't funny or cute or exciting or anything like that. And I was pretty much just forcing myself to watch it. Basically, I think it's bad. I felt embarrassed over whatever happened, and I guess that was a strong intentional effect, but I definitely didn't like it. But I notice that lot of people love the show, so I'd say this it's very much up to the preferences.
Honestly, I was kinda grossed out over the main character throughout the entire show, as she's a real bitch. And actually, she herself was made to be too ugly for me to want to watch her.
I am not a fan of comedy anime, and when the comedy isn't even funny, then that's not something for me.

I loved it because I can totally relate to her apparently unlike jompa

Addendum:
One thing about the show though, is that many of the scenarios and how the MC reacts 'n stuff is something very many people can relate to, including myself. It was like a parody of the dark parts of my life. I think that part of the show was very well-made, which pretty much is the main thing about the show anyways (I'm speaking bad english right now), but I just didn't like it, and I find it hard to believe that most people would disagree with me. But like Dude, there are loads of people who do, and that is just to be expected imo, as it is a well-made show that "hits all the targets it's made for itself" if that made sense. As for me, I just think those "targets" it went for doesn't make up a good show - I didn't find it entertaining, which I think is kinda important.
Personally, being able to relate to the main character isn't enough reason for me to watch a show.

"Kinda good"? It was amazing, if not very eventful. It actually made me genuinely terrified.

Then again I didn't read the manga, so if you guys already knew that stuff I doubt it would've had that effect on you.

Finally got around to watching that new attack on titan (I'm just gonna keep calling it that, hope nobody minds), and yeah damn I thought it was pretty freakin good. But same as bubbles, I haven't read the manga. Does this mean they're starting to come out with new episodes regularly again? Because of so, that was pretty fast.

Bubbles

Sadly, season 2 doesn't start until April. That was just a special episode that was a bonus on a dvd set or something, and it made its way to the internet (obviously).

It's a very good show and all, but it's just so crazily cliché that it takes away all the excitement. I could barely even finish it.

Its extremely cliché, but at the same time strangely addicting.

Ghaaaahaaha!!!! I just finished "Strobe Edge", with tears in my eyes may I add, and it is one of the best romance mangas I've read so far!!!!! I totes recommend it, and a really nice thing about it is that it is actually completed, so no waiting-for-new-release-shit!!^^
It was beautiful.
