I'm just... wow. That was really bad.
The animation is great and that's about it. The thing is that in spite of being animated there's a lot more to a show like this than just how it moves.
I personally abhor the artstyle, it feels like a bunch of random references to the old rubber hose style cartoons, which that artstyle combined with the modern animation style just looks uncanny.
The characters are incredibly poorly developed, there is just nothing there, sometimes there will be hints of it and then it'll be thrown away quickly.
Speaking of ideas being thrown away, that's all this series does, it just brings up ideas and concepts and then casts them away like they're nothing. By the time a question is answered 5 more take it's place. You think anything is answered by the end of the season? Nope!
By far the worst part is the pacing, the plot goes nowhere and it feels like random things happening for the sake of it, and then at the end it's like "now it's time for a new adventure!" As if anything was accomplished.
I gotta go apologize to The Primal Theory and Echoes of Eternity, they at the very least did the bare minimum of storytelling.
Seriously Genndy what happened? Your other work is amazing, this is just awful.
