Hehe this is exactly what these threads are for :p
It's not that I want to argue with you or anything, there was some really good stuff in ef, but it lacked originality. Maybe I was expecting too much from this, the fact that it's 22nd on ANN's list surprised me a bit.
There were some really strong moments, like the phone call in episode 10, but i felt most of them were spoiled by bad voice acting or sloppy animation. Again, I insist on that point, I loved the drawings but thought that the movements were way too weird looking.
I had the very same feeling when I watched Ergo Proxy. Those are 2 of the nicest animes there is (visually), I WANTED to love them both... but both series lost me when I got passed the 4-5th episode (for different reasons though).
Am I the only who didn't fall in love with this show or what? I mean, I gave it 4 out of 5, so yeah I liked it, but I do believe we're far from the masterpiece everyone's talking about. =(
