This is a case of don't make an anime if you don't have the budget for it. Its disrespectful to the original work. All I can hope is people people who are drawn to the story to read the manga instead. I think the character designs are nice, but there's definitely issues with anatomy in the anime. the pacing is also very awful. So much dragging on a lot of frame. The way they did the art style is something you see out of 2000.

I wasn't expecting the premiere to be this wholesome. Beneath all the supernatural mystery, it's really a story about giving someone hope.

The Taisho-era setting gives the series a unique vibe. Mixing military organizations with supernatural abilities makes the world feel fresh.

Episode Context

A measured, atmospheric premiere that earns its slow pace. Set in 1910s Japan, this opening episode leans into historical mood and quiet unease rather than action, establishing Kodō Iwamoto as a student investigator navigating a world where the supernatural bleeds into the mundane. Studio Deen renders the Meiji-Taisho-era setting with deliberate restraint, letting tension build through atmosphere rather than spectacle. A second key character, a boy with abilities that defy easy explanation, is introduced early, and their dynamic hints at something more layered than a simple mystery-of-the-week format. Fans of character-first supernatural storytelling will find this a confident, unhurried setup worth committing to.
