great movie and great material to start consumming native content

nice setting

its a nice setting, but thats all it has sadly. I watched it for the first time because it seemed easy, and it really was. I liked the voice acting although it wasnt much for the length and the art and score was good too. but it really doesnt have any plot, it feels like an intro ep1 for a full season.
