here's the verdict:
it's alright. will probably watch the second season.
bit more Loud than i'd like, bit more horny than i'd like. aside from that, it's a little formulaic, but it mostly steers clear of being too annoying about it.
i don't like when anime does this sort of having-your-cake-and-eating-it-to thing where they highlight a character's skimpy outfit as being weird, but then they keep showing it anyway. like buddy, you're the one who wrote this stuff, either own up to it or change it! i think the "crisis management mode" thing would have been a much better bit if after the first transformation sequence, the final touch was just her getting a sweater over it.
but then they wouldn't get to do leery panning shots of a character who's textually fifteen years old, i guess. idk if i should worry that i've gotten so used to it
