Surprisingly big budget action animation with a touch of horror and gore, but our 2 protagonists are both cringey.
One is cringey smug, the other cringey angry, and neither are likeable.
Even the powers themselves aren't that interesting. One of them literally goes into beast mode.
About the cleverest thing is the horror the writers are trying to set up, but it feels like there are TV censors that won't allow them go nuts with it.
I read the first volume of the manga, so I had some idea what to expect going in. It's been a while, but I don't think the animators are deviating significantly from the source material, although I'm not curious enough to do a page-by-page check.
