It seems it isn't that many here that has seen the series, so as a person who has wasted a lot of time both watching the anime and reading the manga i'll talk a little about it.
The show starts up slow, just building up the "universe" and the characters. So it may be pretty boring the first 12 or something episodes. But after a while, the story starts progressing, and there comes a lot of pretty good fights and new characters. But also as more you come into the series, the worse the animation gets, so if animation is a big factor for you, i do NOT recommend the anime for you. The "frirst arc" of the series just ended as well.
So if you really want to experience the series, you should much rather read the series. The only good thing about the anime series, is some of the fights and all the openings.
