Absolutely hated the anime. One of Triggers rare misses. It establishes ironclad rules around a plot device, and then the big twist is that those rules get ignored.
The MCs entire schtick is that he’s a boring empty shell with no personality, and few of the remaining cast are remotely likeable.
The opposite, the plot is built around redeeming hateable characters, but it fails.
But damn I love that OP to death. It’s so different from the typical pattern, and the kaleidoscopic visuals really work with it.
It shows off the fantastic visual design of the show, which I still adore despite the narrative and character writing being total let downs.
Even though I haven’t watched the show, this is a favorite of mine too! According to the friend who shared it with me, this was apparently the band’s last song shortly before the vocalist passed away from a medical condition. The lyrics and vibe of the song feel a whole lot heavier with that context 😢
