As a slice-of-life enjoyer and a massive Kyoto animation fan, I was really hyped for this. But tbh it was a little mid. The first arc was fire, no doubt about it, and the Cultural Fest arc was also pretty peak in the mystery department. The movie arc was ok. But other than that there was a lot of wasted time on romance the show didn't really pursue in a satisfying way and really boring mysteries. Idk it's like this anime tried to be both a mystery anime and a romance anime and ended up coming up weak on both. Half-baked romance, half-baked mystery, two mids don't make a peak I'm sorry. The art is very good, this is Kyoto for god sake, the (in my objective opinion) king of pretty anime. However, I've never believed that good art/animation can save a piece of work, if the cake is bad, no amount of icing is gonna fix it. Not much else to say honestly, again I am a slice-of-life fan, and a huge enjoyer of Kyoto's work, yet I just can't sit here and say this is any higher than a 6/10.
It's fine, it's ok, it's kinda mid. But I did enjoy it nonetheless, just not to a meaningful extent.
