The first few episodes were engaging in a trashy, intoxicating kind of way. Lots of characters and esoteric syncretic nonsense with earth-shattering stakes for a world/setting I really don't care about. But it reaches a holding pattern even as the MCs have some character growth/development. There's not much interesting to grasp on to, just a steady stream of new information all the way to the end, even for nominal endings of character arcs. I don't know how I'm supposed to judge anyone's power or ability, either, which made the battles less interesting; I don't need a whole point system or nothing, but it would be nice to feel like Ren was in some reasonable amount of danger or that anyone had a chance of defeating the magic time nazis.
