The animation is usually quite bad, despite the detail being high in everything. Most images look great, but the character acting is the most clumsy part of the presentation. The animation is inconsistent and wonky in volume, the frame count is quite low, and the acting has little nuance. I appreciate the design, and the stiffness makes sense in moody scenes, but this is constantly an obvious mistake because the level of detail keeps changing. The storytelling works despite this, because the rest of the anime is finely crafted. The detailed character designs are not the right choice, but it could've been.
There is a huge mistake near the finale. If your friend falls into a icy river in winter and has trouble moving, please try to bring dry clothes or towels. Don't make your friend sit with her legs hanging out in the front basket, where all the wind will hit the motorbike, while still soaked in icy water. That's extremely dangerous and may increase hypothermia. Also, don't then act like your motorbike solved the problem when you could've seriously injured your friend further.
