Why? Well like stated below, the characters are real. Not only based off of their portrayed "labels", but in reality, tell me one time any of us have not crumbled under the "friendship".
also lets remember the ages in these anime. If you are older than 17+...of course you may not feel like it can resonate with you!! the largest watching party is normally in high school or early college!
It gets better, if you already made it to episode 4, i can promise by 5, 6, 7 it slowly becomes a lot like "seraph of the end" and stuff. I get the feeling that this wasn't created by the most professional or experienced artists, so with that in mind...they REALLY did a good job.
