The overall plot was very clever! With all sorts of twists and turns, it all tied together quite nicely by the end.
The characterizations were well developed and consistant. The viewer quickly got to know all the main characters, and could sympathize with each one.
The pacing was perfect. There was no fluff or downtime in the story development.
The artwork highly developed, and the music fit the tone of the story very nicely.
There's only one question I have.
This series could easily stand alone as a one season storyline. However, I wonder if there might me another season down the road. The series has "Genisis" in the title, which means "The beginning of something." That implies more to come. Also, things said at the end of the last episode, implied more to come. Finally, after the credits, there was the blurb, "I'll be back!!"
Ah well, whether a new season comes or not,
Rage of Bahamut - Genesis is an excellent watch. It may be one of the best animes of 2014!
