In short yes.... but I think this is meant to go into the recommendations sub-section.

Yes, for 2005 anime, the art and animation were top notch (it's BONES so what else would you expect). The story starts to get pretty faced paced half way through it for the most part.

Yes.
The first half is too filler-packed, but the second starts revealing what their world is and has a good plot.

It's a good anime definitely worth watching. Few I've seen think it's amazing though.Myself included.Don't let that stop you from watching and forming an opinion of the show yourself.

It's an action/mecha/romance classic. The plot quickly picks up by like episode 20, and by then you'll hopefully understand why so many people love the franchise.
You may get pissed off at Renton, though. When I mean pissed, I mean REALLY pissed. -_-

He probably means the characters are like the mains from Evangelion, and I can see the reference clearly, but it's easy to look past after a couple of episodes

I just noticed nearly identical character archetypes.
Renton --> Shinji
Eureka --> Rei
Plus it's a mecha show in which the mechas seemed to have more significance than just as a giant weapon. Seems pretty similar to Eva to me.

Okay, Eva was a deconstruction of an entire genre. So yeah, there are going to be similarities to other mecha shows. Both characters grow and develop in ways that their Eva counterparts never could. It's a lot more sincere than Eva. etc. I could go on and on.

Seriously? What peeved you about him?
Even though he DOES go through some development (and trust me, I LOVE seeing him be the badass hero), whenever he breaks down crying for no damn reason, I feel cheated by his development as a character. Sure, he's a 14 year old kid and he's thrown into hell, and a lot of the times his crying is called for. But it just gets repetitive, especially when it's his breakdowns are out of place.

Yeah, most definitely. Unfortunately the MC drags the anime down, the charisma of an eggplant and whines more than my baby sister. Not a big fan of the other main castmembers either but it has some of the best sidecharacters I know. But the excellent world, gorgeous animation, great atmosphere and intriguing story more than make up for that. Not to mention it has one of the best soundtracks I know.

Yes, watch it. I thought it was really good, especially the second half.
Eureka wasn't a boring character at all to me. She actually had some decent development unlike Rei.
It also has an amazing ost.
The only problem are those damn annoying kids lol.
It's one of my fav anime so I may be a bit biased.

Oh man! I completely forgot those kids. Yes, they are annoying and unfortunately integral to the show. Especially Eureka's character. I wished so many times for an Eureka 7: Brotherhood reboot that was exactly the same sans the children.

I'm glad I'm not the only one, I'm more than halfway through and I hate him right now. Not sure when I'll finish. In short it's probably worth watching if you like that kind of thing.

Eureka Seven is one of my favorite animes. The cast of characters is diverse, the world is fascinating, and the plot gets really really good half way through. This is all complemented by a really great soundtrack, that totally fits with the vibe this series has. It also has amazing animation, not only just good for 2005, it has better animation then I've seen in any anime for the past couple years (can't believe some people rave about SnK's animation, ES puts it to shame)
