This series is breaking my heart. I was so enthused about it based on the style and vibes from episode 1, hoping that they would fill out the story more in the coming episodes. However, we still don't really have any idea what is going on and the story this episode seems completely disconnected from the first episode.
I still love the aesthetics of this show (and love the OP as well). I do agree with others in this thread that the action was hard to follow though. It seems more like they came up with big set pieces or moves but then couldn't really figure out how to string them together into a well-choreographed sequence.
I am still going to stick with this show for now on the hope that it can deliver a story to match the visuals, but my hope is diminished after this week.
