Visually arresting, the entire show is draped in blue hues and fisheye lenses. Every character felt incredibly one note, no matter how interesting or exciting that note was. Also points deducted for cat-girl, found that to be... problematic.

i have absolutely no clue why i finished watching this. i think in like the first episode ish the concept was cool but then it became actually the most confusing shit ever

not a bad show!! but neko is definitely one of the most annoying characters ever sigh + the fanservice was so unnecessary, but that’s what made it so funny

Everything is super beautiful, but the plot is just... meh

ok so i guess none of you bitches have taste

visually stunning, probably one of the most aesthetically pleasing animes i’ve seen. the soundtrack is incredible.

มาแม่ เปิดเรื่องมาน่าสนใจมากกกห 3-4 อีพีแรกมั้งที่หนุก ๆ เลย พอกลางเรืีองแบบมันพักเล่าเรื้องไรละเริ่มเอื่อย เลยดูช้าไปนิสนึง พอเข้าจุดเฉลย climax นั่นแหละถึงหนุกมากกกหหอีกครั้ง ฟินอ้าาาา เอาดี ชอบ character design มากมันเจ๋ง แล้วก็ดูเรียลอะ แบบไม่เว่ออนิเมะไป ทุกคนดูมีความเป็นมนุษย์มาก เราแบบอ้ากกหง

Lots of potential, amazing aesthetic, great storyline. Execution falters a lot in this show. The emotional moments don't hit like they should. The plot reveals seem abrupt. Maybe it's because so much was crammed in 13 eps.

I absolutely cried during this When the red king dies, and they start chanting? Balling my eyes out. A few characters are odd, like the oversexualized cat and the girl who is wearing the smallest uniform ever. I enjoy the idea of a turf war with different colored gangs though Very cool plot as

Show is kinda cool. Intro hits too

Genuinely cried when Mikoto died and one of my first animes, finished around 2020 or 2019
