This is sort of surprisingly not bad.

The individual mysteries are very formulaic, in a sort of Lupin III / Murder She Wrote / Scooby Doo sense - the recurring characters assemble through some extraordinary coincidences, a murder happens, they all stumble around seemingly uselessly, then the hero solves the murder It just has the added twist that somewhere along the way, Sakuya - the hero - is going to be killed. But that's okay because he's something resembling immortal and always revives, with his head on the lap of his long-suffering, fiercely loyal and charmingly tsundere assistant, Lilithea.

It has hints of harem, at least insofar as Sakuya has an ever-growing set of cute female admirers, but he only has eyes for Lilithea.

And the nuts and bolts of everything - the art and character designs and music and voice acting and so on - are all fine, if not exceptional.

So just on the surface, it's a passable, satisfyingly formulaic diversion.

But there's something going on in the background too - an overarching story of ridiculously gigantic proportions. It's playing out sort of somewhere between Full Metal Panic and Kill la Kill. And it might just be pretty good. Orcat least sort of surprisingly not bad.

For me it's not bad not good. Both the story and the animations are average... Well considering how many well animated shows are in this season I could say it's below average.
I'm sticking around just to see if they can pull off some amazing plot twist but I doubt it will ever compare to shows like Shoushimin Series, Kubikiri Cycle or Hyouka.

[–] Rottcodd@ani.social 2 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

Shoushimin Series...

And I just found the likely next thing I'll watch.

I don't know how that slipped under my radar - I love Hyouka, and the only problem I had with Kubikiri Cycle is that it's Shaft, and the Shaft gimmicks alternately bore me and irritate me.

As for this one I'm about where you are, though probably a bit more optimistic. But yeah - they appear to be slowly building a great big background twist, and it remains to be seen how well or poorly it works.

I like how unique Shaft art direction is. But even focusing on just the story Kubikiri Cycle wins imho.

Shoushimin is awesome, it's well animated and I had a ton of fun trying to solve all the riddles along with the MC.

[–] Rottcodd@ani.social 1 points 3 weeks ago

I liked how unique Shaft art direction was, back before they killed its uniqueness by repeating it over and over and over and over and over and...

Looking forward to Shoushimin. I expect I'll start it either tonight or sometime tomorrow (I still have a couple of current series to catch up on).
