Den Beste wrote a piece about this series years ago, in which he analyzed it first as an American would, and then as he thought it should be interpreted as a series of Japanese origin. It was an interesting exercise.
Den Beste has some tastes in anime, that, having read his blog chizumatic, creeps me out in that way I get creeped out by the old homeless guy eyeing the high school girls in Suburban Station.
I haven't read much more than that one essay of his Anime stuff. Years ago, I used to read him on science and engineering matters. Those two tastes are not incompatible (though they are also not necessarily related).

Read either way, its worth watching.
