Unfortunately being analytical and being spoilerish is the same thing. You can add an asterist and mention how you explain yourself in the spoiler section after the end of the review. This way anyone who wants to avoid them, will stop where the spoiler section begins.

If you want to chat about a show, my skype name is roriconfan1.

If the hero is blunt, a show tends to be dull even if it has a fast pace. And in this case the problem was the overuse of magic to the point many things were random.

It's fine to offer a counter-opinion to most but you MUST explain your opinion properly or it will feel like you are a fool. He are a few things that you need to clarify.

"The fact that it's a mecha anime might turn you away"

Don't talk like everybody hates mecha like you, I personally like them.

"It's not often you see an anime with an awesome, complex plot like this."

What are you talking about? We get at least two mecha shows with complicating plots per year.

"Asura Cryin' is pretty much the only anime that I consider to be on the heavy side yet enjoy re-watching often, and the reason for that might be how well it blends light school life with epic adventure and fantasy action."

There are several dozen anime that do that, usually better.

"the plot is the strongest point of this anime."

You mean the script. Almost everybody admits the plot was slow and dull. Read some comments to realize that.
