I've seen a lot of anime get panned in the past by people being overly critical or having high expectations, so I like to give even poorly rated anime a chance...this one was not one of those instances. My biggest complaint after the often broken and incomprehensible story is the characters, namely I felt no attachment to any of them at all, they're bland, expressionless and a lot of the things they say or do don't make sense. The other part that was extremely off putting was nearly every character's hostility towards the MC from the very beginning, even one character who was supposed to belike a brother to the MC started getting distant for reasons that, in any normal close bond, would be unimportant. Because of this, rather than getting attached to any character (bar one though that was short lived), I only felt frustration and sometimes anxiety for how badly they were treating the person who was trying to help them.

Then there's the pacing which was all over the place; some scenes lasted way too long, others were too short, there were jumpcuts to random places in the middle of fights or suspenseful scenes. The atmosphere never settled enough for you to feel it before something else ripped your attention away, and the subplots only served as distractions in an already distracting story.

Unfortunately, this series is just another sad example of an anime game adaptation that fell flat.
