Yeah, I think this first episode really focused on style over substance. It posed a bunch of narrative questions and provided essentially no answers. I am willing to give it a little bit of time to get to work on the story though. These anime original series don't have a baked-in audience like an adaptation, so I get the desire to try to make a big splash with the first episode visually to hook viewers before doing the less visually flashing things of storytelling later.
