I’m really not connecting with this anime.

It is incredibly generic and unremarkable. Each episode has gotten worse for me. The animation is great, but that’s all this show has going for it. Honestly, I’m surprised it’s rated so highly because the plot and characters kind of suck imo. The fights aren’t that exciting to me either, just feels like a lot of random shit on the screen which are pretty, but doesn’t really engage me.

Dropping it here.

Kinda interesting how they teamed up in the end, but for they need more force when they're against a giant corporation which is running basically everything, AUZA is no joke, and that fight at the end was lit

This reminds me of the series I watched as a teenager, hardly any story and mindless violence xD John wick in bad, sry not my thing, everything that happens feels random.

what action was that? This episode was very good, but it didn't give ninja Zé much work.

@LoomyTheBrew I don't know. Everyone's soul is different. These scenes are well done. The staging is good. The problem is that it's very fast and very formulaic. It's such a fat stamp that you know every next move the author is going to make, every next plot twist. I've seen very similar techniques more than once, not twice, not three times. I'm not good at empathy. I have to spend time with the character to get into it. You need something that's really compelling to make me emotional. Like "Made in Abyss" and the Bondrewd arc. "Fullmetal" and Tucker. "Heavenly Delusion" and some of the episodes there. Like the Eeyore arc.

"The Kingdom of Ruin", for example, gave me facepalm attacks every minute. The characters there are so cardboard and stupid that, like the paper original of that anime, you just want to burn them. It's an abuse of paper. I'm traumatised by the amount of 'horror' I saw in "The Kingdom of Ruin".

I'm not judging you personally. Everyone's tastes are different.
