Fun is not objective.

Additionally, you call mediocre mech design a crippling problem, so it's not people ignoring crippling issues, it's that you're holding a series to an oddly high standard for strangely petty reasons when it seems to receive any sort of praise vs how lenient you are towards a series generally decried as "Bad" despite having crippling issues of it's own.

And that's unlikely, considering the main writer is relatively unpopular and opinions have tended to be split with the current series. I don't think Gaim would be any different.

If you didn't have fun, fine, if you claimed you didn't enjoy the special because of expectations much higher than anything the special ever claimed to be, then just come on, man.

What are you talking about, mech design? If you look at any of my posts in the last five or ten or so episodes of Wizard you'll see me criticising it plenty, I think Wizard had a pretty strong beginning but lost its way in the middle and clearly just didn't care by the end.

Given the dickriding Gaim is already getting in its respective threads, based on a few images and clips, Gaim is either gonna be the next Kyoryuger (IE an insanely mediocre series, that powers through on fanhype for a few months before everyone starts realising how bad it is) or everyone is going to have set their expectations so ludicrously high the only thing left is to be disappointed.
