Calling Fourze an absolute failure is an exaggeration. Look at the amazing merchandise sales! Personally, I've always enjoyed the show.

Yeah, I pointed that out earlier in the thread. It's not quite as casual as only using given names, like Gentarou does, but still pretty loose with the social etiquette of the high school setting for Houtarou to only refer to Rinne as "Kudo", without the san. Although, Rinne doesn't even bother to remember Houtarou's name until he saves her from Steamliner, which is the opposite extreme.
