I saw the first few episodes of Weiss Kreuz, and I tried to like it. I really did. But the combination of horrid animation, over-the-top pointless angst, and a story that went nowhere put me off. And throw in the fact that I'm one of the weird female anime fans who's not into yaoi -_-;;
I think what may be contributing to the lack of Weiss Kreuz enthusiasm in general is the new Gluhen OAV for it. Now that that's out (and from what I've heard, it's actually pretty good, although I have no interest in checking it out), the old Weiss Kreuz is...well...old.
Gravitation, on the other hand...I couldn't take more than ten minutes of it, but that's just me. It was too sappy, too sweet, too shounen-ai soap opera for me. I detest network TV soap operas. The last thing I want is an anime one (probably the same reason I didn't care for FY, either).
As for why there isn't very much support for WK and Gravitation in these forums, most of the Org community is male, and in general, males aren't into yaoi/shounen-ai.
Hope this doesn't sound too bitchy. I don't mean to be insulting, and if I come off that way, I apologize.
