Animation wise is OK. For the time however, it wouldn't have been unreasonable to expect a little more. It's all quite basic. It's not horrible, it's just ok. There is quite a lot of gore here and though I'm not opposed to gore, I feel what's presented in here is a little unnecessary. Some people may think that gore can never be unnecessary, but those people are massive fans of Hostel, and that film is diabolical. For gore to work it either has to shock you, scare you or make you feel uncomfortable. For me, I felt none of these things. Another issue I had here, given the district Mad Bull works in, number 34, women splay a central role. Animation wise, they all look the same. Further, the show take every opportunity it can to get some topless women on screen. Again, I get where this show is set, but it really needs to be dialed down as it is so frequent, one would have to question if the writers are alright.
Story isn't too bad. The episodes arnt badly written and they flow reasonably well together. The protagonist are likeable but another issue I had is that the antagonists weren't. More time should have been spent writing them in a way that makes you dislike them. Also, there are scenes, particularly the climax of episode two where the scene is just going on and on and on until finally we get a relief from our protagonist. Normally on these circumstances you are wanting the protagonist to arrive and the excitement is building along with the tension of 'will they not make it in time?!'. Sadly, I was left thinking 'please hurry up so this scene can be over'
Music is pretty solid, does what it needs to do to help move the story forward but ultimately, it's just there, rather than being something that pulls you more into the story.
I'm summary, it's not great, pretty jeuvenille and rather boring. You find some humour in the characters at first, I would be surprised if you genuinely enjoy for being a good show rather than as a gimmick.
