Now for what people complain about in terms of the anime being a card game anime. I felt that they did a good job at visually showing how some of the decks work. Sure they are pretty fast and things can be confusing but it's a huge example of show don't tell. Like when we see Tomari take cards away from her opponent's field with a cage, it's meant to show her prison gimmick of her deck. While I understand the grievances of everybody, I thought they did a decent job.
They mostly do this because the anime is meant to appeal to a general audience. Not everyone is going to understand how the game works. While the OG series does get people learning, Overdress is meant to invite people before new fans get into the game. I mostly got a friend who was not into card game anime to watch just for that one awesome but funny moment in episode 12 or the apex of card gaming. If you seen it, you know what I am talking about. Not explaining it due to spoilers.
Now for the good stuff, the characters. The way they interact, the situations they get into, and what we learn about them is great. I especially love Danji for his Big Brother vibe while being a bit goofy which helps him be a bit dynamic. And the whole thing is pretty down to Earth with some relatable problems (to an extent). You got to give it to Overdress to not relying on the supernatural to have a story. Not only that, we do see the protagonist having to train and learn how to play the game while being a part of a community that help him out. So he's not just good on the get go and I hope to see him get better.
Overall, I felt the hate in Overdress is unwarranted and I felt most of the flaws can be expanded on in season 2 or there is a legit reason to them.
