Really enjoyed this. Good animation, excellent voice acting, and plenty of action. A fun mix of characters and a concept that has a lot of potential to explore many myths and legends. Looking forward to seeing where it goes next.

Well, for starters, I should point out that the animation and design are great, that's not always the case in anime.

Appart from that, the pitch is quite interesting: an agency in charge of recovering and ensuring that ancient artifacts and tech are in good hands/harmless.

Unfortunately, the show is very procedural and there's a real issue with the characters that lack personality, and there's something wrong with consistency and storyline development. There's no main plot, no main villains nor links between the episodes. You could watch the episodes in any order, that wouldn't really matter. The last episode is kind of the same as the first one, no plot development, no season 2 tease.

I suspect that Netflix made this anime for the fans who already know the story, but didn't really care about anything else.... Money, money money!

Never saw the original movie. I'm enjoying the plot with the ancient civilization tech narrative. Voice acting and sound design are well produced. Action sequences are exciting. I'll continue watching and hope for a second season.

I think it was well animated, the main characters strength varries depending on who is opponent is for some reason. Introduction into different characters are almost to none. I had no idea a movie existed after some research and I have not watched it yet. Series, lore and everything had alot of potential.

While this anime doesn't bring anything new to the table it does all the basic anime tropes very well. The protagonist is fun and quirky while also endearing at times, but where the best part of this anime lies is in the fight scenes. While the animation doesn't compare to something like Demon Slayer it is done very well. All the fights are clear and drawn very well. The choreography is amazing and the fight scenes are always tense and never overstay their welcome. While this anime does have a good bit of CGI usage it actually looks very good. Every once in a while it will look out of place but even most anime purists would be happy with how good it looks. If you just want to watch an anime for a good story and some fun fights, this is a great choice.
