>>4135460Finished it a month ago. Kallen is good but she doesn't have as much screen time as Asuka does. They are different in everything except both are talented pilots and skillful fighters. The anime is decent, although very predictable and have one retarded moment in the middle of the first season. Give it a try.
Also I have no idea why it's being compared to death note constantly. It has more common plot elements with SnK, but it is better in every way.
