When I first heard about this I was skeptical and thought it would be just awful. After a while, however, I gt bored one day and decided to give it a shot. So I watched a few episodes, and guess what? I was immediately hooked. ZeXal steals from the other three series and it's pretty stupid (don't even get me started on the dub version), but it has a nostalgic charm about it that I just dig.
