Does anyone else feel like this show would be soo much better and elevated with just completely different art/character designs? Everything about this is great, edgy thematic elements, over the top ultraviolence, etc, but the characters just look so damn thoughtless and mediocre generica.
I don't think they're that middle of the road, it just feels like more of a played out group dynamic than it being a problem with anyone's actual design. The back tattoo of Mary goes incredibly hard tho.
I found episode one pretty boring and nearly dropped it, but this one was miles better. Hopefully we'll get many bizarre epic scenes like these at the end.
The staff really pushed hard to make two very stupid things seem cool, and they fell on their collective faces and continued sprinting with their faces on the ground for a few hundred meters. Which two very stupid things? The incredibly obnoxious and frankly embarrassing girlish screech from spiky hair, and those lame spiky boots.
Oh the bowman guy over the top hulk mode was amusing, but with that ability did he have to murder the yojimbo when he could have just sniped the target? Dubious double standards from this cult group, I dont know.
The ending really gives this series a really different vibe than what was presented but it's okay with me.
It's not that I dislike this genre but... to add unnecessary fan services to/in/for heroines
and ultimately destroys her character and personality; their purity tarnished because of it,
is the only thing I hope to not happen to them. For that sole purity is my fan service.
I just realized that the bitten golds in this anime are more than how they seem. How much anger, resentment, and desperation one has to be able to bite a gold? And for some, how far are they going to get a single gold to make their request for their revenge?
Anyway, HOLY SH-! What's up with that doctor archer?!! Idk if that was edgy or awesome, but... WHOA!
This story is captivating me, it has something special that makes me want to see more. I really like the setting and I find it very interesting. Let's see how it goes.
