The premise is promising and its characters are strong but its execution of plot elements and overall execution is underwhelming. It relies too heavily on the viewer's innate suspension of disbelief to progress the story where it wants to go. It was a bit of a struggle to get through the beginning third of the anime because it presented a lot of conflicts but had no satisfactory solutions for them. The characters were the strongest aspect of this anime but I felt that there could have been a lot more background and character development with them. I rarely cry but there was one moment near the end of the series that was incredibly emotional and moved me to tears.
There were good moments but there were too many moments that I disliked that prevents me from rating this higher. I am aware that this is an anime but you can't simply introduce very realistic stakes and parameters and choose to disregard them when it's convenient. I don't think I would recommend this to anyone.
