Enjoyable but imperfect anime
Overall a very watchable series, with an ending, if imperfect.
Pros: -Animation. (strong colors, characters, etc) -Music. (Fantastic score, opening and closing credits) -Initial plot. (Some Trope use, but the politics was a nice angle)
Cons: -Starts to loose it's way in season 2. -Tropes. -Ending Plot some really hate. -Very "short" Ending.
It Falls under a number of genre categories (Action, dystopia, political thriller, some mecha etc)

Highly Underated
Pros:
The story, while not entirely original, is well executed and well built.
The characters have their own depth and there is great character development throughout the series.
Contrary to what other reviewers have said, I loved the ending, tho I felt it was a bit rushed. Most of the animes that I have watched have average endings but, guilty crown has one the most well built and satisfying endings that I have ever seen.
The animation is pretty good with well executed fight scenes.
The soundtrack is amazing and the music that is played during action scenes, really adds to the experience.
Cons: The story is pretty similar to code geass, and in comparison, isn't handled as well Some plot points were not explained properly and it seemed as there were some character decisions only for plot convience.
All in all, as other reviews have already suggested, this show contains many similarities to Code Geass. However, guilty crown is a great anime in it's own regard and i would defineltly recommed it to any anime fan. As such, i wourld reccommend keeping an open mind and to not compare the show to Code Geass. The 7.1 rating doesn't do the show justice as it definetly amongst the better fantasy/sci-fi animes out there and it is highly underated.

I've never seen such a mess ever before
Where do I even start with this one? Let's start with the good things about this show. The animation is gorgeous. There are really some epic art bombs in this show that make you forget how bad the story is. The music is absolutely beautiful, and I have it about the sang music, not the standard epic fight music that was decent. The show starts with this beautiful song that makes you think your gonna watch something epic. And after the first episode that thought was gone. But I continued watching. After a few episodes, I came to notice that I didn't like a character in this show. Especially the main love interest for our main character. I absolutely hated her in the first half of the show. The second part is defiantly better, much slower paced and a story that's not as thrown at your face than the first half. And then the ending happened... The shortest, anti-climactic, stupidest ending ever. If it weren't for the animation and the music this show would have gotten a lot lower from me.
UNDERRATED
Deserves much more...before watching read the reviews but was really disapointed and after watching the anime i can say that it was worth it. Nice anime.
Good looking anime with a confusing story
The anime looks beautiful and has some good fight scenes. However, trying to understand the plot (especially in the second halve) is near impossible.
Plot twist after plot twist. Everyone good is apparently evil and then good again.
Except for the guy that killed his sister's husband out of pure jealousy and then tries to destroy the world because of the same reason. And who or what is the Daath guy??
