Yes it was bad I don't know what happened.
Thinking back on episode one it seems like there is a lot more action and plot movement.
Focusing on Aneesha's family for the opener was a weird choice. And Mitsuki's character felt like it has been elevated and that whole process felt rushed. She was not a main character before, important, interesting, but not a show leader. Instead we open with her charging at danger with a molotov. Just weird all around for me.
I was disappointed. I watched Last of Us and that was a good antidote. Solid show. Maybe I'll try season 1 again.
I like Invasion but it’s always felt like popcorn entertainment, silly contrivances that advance the plot, characters that do things out of character, a decent amount of action but nothing particularly deep and hardly “prestige” TV like The Last Of Us.
So - for me - the first episode felt pretty on-brand.
