EPISODE REVIEWS
I should've seen the first season first, but oh what the heck, let's see the second one and later I'll review the first season. The beginning was quite good at explaining what's happening, who Ouriku is, and what's he's doing. And the bait for this episode was really good, and I like how the villagers act like actual villagers, as they used to swarm over one collective opinion, whether it's right or wrong, it doesn't matter. The animation is meh, I feel like I was watching something in my grandpa's TV with the cheesy SFX and all lol. Overall it's an okay first episode.
i am not sure but this one should inform that we need to see the precuel first "Reikenzan: Eichi e no Shikaku¨. That way you would be lost starting this one. The pacing was a bit slow, but it is just episode one we have to wait until we go further to give an opinion on that, the animation seems prety decent.
The pacing is a bit slow to my taste as the episode is mostly lore drop of the missing moments when Riku is gone and mouthing off with the antagonist. When there's a lot of dialogue the animators lack the creativity to make it less different than life drama, but the fight itself is interesting.
