Premier episode which is basically 2 2 in 1. Gore. Mass gore and death. Some echii fan service parts minor though.

Episodes 2 while being shorter actually packs in way more content I think. But after episode 1 gore and death aren't enough for me to keep it away from my kids. Episode 2 made this not family appropriate unless you want tough conversations with your pre teens. Heavily implied repeated rape and violence against women and children. Miscarriage and infant death. Not remotely offensive to me but to give parents reading this full choice. No nipples but Breast-feeding is a common occurrence and likely going forward. Also death. Also death and gore were also present. I'm enjoying it so far. The world and the future plot seems like it could be really good.

It's been far to long since i've seen an anime that hooked me on the first episode.

The first episode starting off with a 45 min gripper that hooked my hearth.

The animation is a breath of fresh air. It throws you into a world where what you want to happen or think will happen is a mere wish.

The story wants to take you on a ride and pushing the boundaries is not a fear it has!

For those that are tired of anime not going all they way with the story, this might solve it.

Apparently the episodes have a grainy filter to immitate old anime. Which means you want to imitate over-pixelization of your animation.

I have Visual Snow Syndrome, so everything is already grainy. This is unwatchable. ALL the clips online when not from the anime site itself are high definition, but apparently the actual sites that hold the anime really like the grainy filter the creators used.

Not watchable for those who certain neurological disorders, and my eyes are actively on fire while feeling grainy enough I want to scratch at them (like something is stuck to my eye)

It gets better, apparently, but I am not skipping the first three episodes to check the fourth. If the second episode looks like its from 10 years or more ago and makes me want to hit my head on a wall-guess i won't finish it.

You can show flashbacks and the past much easier with HIGH DEF not "oh look some pixels tehe look how cool this is"

For me, this is a welcomed escape from the mundane d2d and netflix/prime/blah blah (as a decent fantasy should be). The story is pretty good. Choices made, consequences, emotions, sword fighting and magic. So yeah, I've enjoyed it. If I could binge the whole season, I'd have already done so. Guess I'll just have to look forward to the next episode.

So far, seven episodes in, the series is just ok. The world and the characters are intriguing, and the story developments are decent.

However, it feels like nothing of importance is happening. There's not much for me to look forward for. I feel like the characters are just aimlessly wandering around.

To me, this is just another run-of-the-mill anime for teens.
