I really liked this one. MAPPA’s animation on the parkour scenes was absolutely fantastic and the whole episode was a delight to watch. Because the premise seems so heavily intertwined in political and ethical philosophy I do worry about what the show is trying to say, but I’ll give it the benefit of the doubt for now because it just looks so good. I’m really excited for this one and give the premiere a 5/5.

Also, I’ve heard people complain about the english dub, and I didn’t really have any issues with it. The dialogue is a little cringy, but like, that’s just kinda how anime goes and it gives a different vibe to read cringy dialogue vs hear it. I also felt like the flat-ish performances were done on purpose to give the show a bit of a mellow vibe (the japanese voices seemed to be fairly similar, IMO)
