So I just binged watched part 1 and I would like to say that I loved the intensity and the atmosphere they have created. Thankfully they have not skipped on the gore and the violence, though, I wouldn't mind if there was more. It makes your perception of their world more real in my opinion as you have something to experience for yourself even if its just from watching.

I like the fact that they try to have different story lines combined with love, jealousy, selfishness and other human emotions/qualities; but the transitions and the developments in each storyline was lacking as it feels they are just crammed in and do not have a natural flow to it as I may say. To me the pace was similar to last season of GOT.

I do not know much about anime production but it seems like they had reached their publishing deadline without actually finishing the job and making sure everything was perfect. The editing was mediocre and some scenes just flew by.

I very much liked the art unlike some other people. Each artist has his/her own way of expressing art and we shouldn't always expect it to be the same as our expectations or liking. Just saying.

Also the plot has holes. It is cool and amusing but with very obvious holes. And some "wtf no sane person would do such things" reasoning behind some actions. It still was fun to watch.

I also get the feeling that this anime has a happy ending kind of story with not many definite surprises. I personally do not like such stories as it is boring, no matter what happens in the end its all good. But I wish I am mistaken.

I am almost giving up on Netflix, they give us 2 season of an anime, and when we expect to see more they give us nothing. There were so many stories left in this adaption and yet we have not had anything. People that gave this a low score have no soul.

I have read the manga and was very happy when I heard that the anime was being made. But this seems to be made to ruin the story. The very carefully constructed atmosphere put together by the author on the manga version is a no show due to the fast pacing of the screen adaptation. The order of events is wrong, too many jumps that I couldn't even understand the time passing and the animation itself is very bad, a lot of issues in many areas. It seems that the ones who put together this anime have no idea on how to maintain/ create an ominous atmosphere, put thriller and mystery to the thing which is very sad because the manga had it already they just "edited it out of the plot". As for the people that haven't read the manga, this is a very average anime... almost bad but the plot saves it big time. Everything should have been done in a more explained way and using more of the manga because if taken from there it would come up on the list of best animes of the genre.

I've not read the Manga so keep that in mind.. The story and concept is very fresh and appealing, as is the unusual trope twists, and the characters have promise, but it's not quite there..

Especially as of the second season, the characters are missing that key element that makes you really connect with them and make mistakes that go beyond excusable to the inexcusable, but I don't regret the time spent watching it, yet..

Don't be surprised if they give this another go in 10+ years time.

Other than the plot being amazing and gripping, everything else is unmemorable.

It feels like throughout the series they (the production) don't know where the story is going, who to focus on, who needs character development. It is just floating in the air, it lacks purpose.
