If you couldn't already tell, presentation was done quite poorly. The OP and ED songs/scenes were done well, catchy tunes and all. But the meat of the story has nothing to boast. It almost felt as if FFU was hastily written and marketed as a quick way to gain a buck. Humour was slapstick and mainly dealt out by the chocobo of the series. The many oppurtunities to flesh out the characters were shelved in an attempt to make the story tangible. For instance, we find out later that one of the main characters is actually from another world, being sent here after his was destroyed by the main baddie's subordinate. However the anime did not take any chance to explain why, how or when. It introduces an excuse for a battle and stumbles upon it. There are too many loose ends to this story.
