Yup, most of the lukewarm-received shows seems to have characters whose acting feels off to fanbase, for Wizard next, but also Ghost, Saber, Zi-O (outside Woz), and Gotchard. Not for Saber, but most of these shows are also about two-parters, of which I wonder if the fanbase's criticism of those shows are actually misplaced, and what they don't enjoy was just the acting. Like dunno if there's anything worse for their 'plot' or two parters part compared to shows like OOO or Fourze here (like the Cygnus one).

This is what can happen if there are different writers. The show's two primary writers handled Yuki's personality in different ways. Kazuki Nakashima gives her the rounded character you talked about, while Riku Sanjou focused on the "ditzy space otaku" aspect of Yuki, flanderizing her.
