Story - 1
I realize that I don't have all the pieces to this puzzle, but when each piece is the size of my thumb in length and width and there're only six of them, I don't really need them all to get the picture. It's very cliche, and I swear to god I wrote the same freaking story in fifth grade. This is by far the worst element of the show, and I say that with confidence even having not finished the show.
Also, exposition. Every of the exposition. Like, there's one part in the first episode where they show that regular people cannot see these monsters by having one such beast run past a couple of girls who don't even look up from their conversation, however when it comes to anything important, like the story, everything is explained via talking head scenes.
Also, plot holes if you think about any event for more than three seconds.

The show looks great. The animation is fantastic, for the most part, sometimes it just feel like they're faking it, but they're faking it well, so it's okay. The character designs, while a bit on the average side and a bit forgettable, were nice while I watched it.
Mirai was the most unique looking out of every character who had more than one scene up to episode 4, and all she is is pink with glasses. I mean, she's absolutely adorable, and that seems to be her only function, but I don't even know where to look when I look at her. All I see is a pink fluff ball.
Sound - 5
The music during the lighthearted scenes just sounded so bubbly that anytime the show started to get serious, it just looked like it was trying to be as edgy as possible. As for the dramatic music, I cannot remember what it sounds like off the top of my head, but I would assume it's orchestral and dramatic n' shit. I never found myself disliking anything I heard, it just didn't seem like all of the music fit exactly right.
Character - 3
Water dose?
Really, though, after the second episode, every conflict with Mirai and main character guy, whose name I forget because I couldn't care less about this non-character, had my rolling my eyes. Then, everything any character does ever has literally no purpose.
Like, "Ima fight the big bad boss monster!" Why? "because I killed my friend because boss monster possessed her!" Yeah, okay, but why are you attacking it now? "... See answer B?"
Then, and this probably should have been said in the story section, they don't even go over how they got into such a situation as to allow the friend girl to be possessed by the boss monster. Like, everyone in this city has fair warning, so how was the other place any different?
You know what? I'm going back and dropping story by a point.
Enjoyment - 3
Eh. Didn't make me feel, and it never really got intense. It's just basic enough so as to not completely bore me, but there's not much worth coming back to.
Overall - 5
There's a cute pink fluff ball of a girl, and that is the most this show will give you. Otherwise, it's nothing. It's literally nothing. I'm not sure how else to describe it. It's just stimulation for the brain. Just something your eyes can see and your ears can hear.
