Overall it was a pretty comfy show. The animation was great at showing cute moments and incredibly stiff in the fights.
Honestly flights were the worst part of the show. Boring power system, bad animation. But SoL stuff kept me hooked. Alina's personality and her interactions with Silver Swords were really great.
Kinda hoping for season 2 but if it doesn't happen I won't mind.
I had similar feelings. The moe moments and Rie Takahashi's VA work were definitely the highlights of the show for me. When the show tried to get serious, it never really connected for me and the back half of the season felt like a big drop compared to the first. I kind of doubt this is getting a season 2, but there are plenty of worse shows that have. At least it gave us a great OP and ED as well as some great Rie Takahashi shouting moments.
They really outdid themselves in OP and ED. I feel like those serious moments could get carried by better animation/direction.
Also yeah Rie Takahashi is the MVP.
