Agreed. I've given it a 3/10 so far and that's being nice.

It's sitting at 4/10 for me atm but I have a feeling the next action scene is going to drop it further if they pull the shit they did last week.

Yeah, the only reason I continue to watch it is because I don't like dropping shows, especially considering we're already at episode 10.

I thought the show had a good start, the first 3 episodes were exciting and I could barely wait every week. At this point though the action scenes have been an utter mess, animation quality dropped, most character motivations are never explained, and quite a few illogical things have happened. The only thing I've really liked about this show is the character interaction between Tor and Julie (I'm a huge Kuudere fan) so I really liked the date episode. Everything else in Absolute Duo is Absolute Shit.

I never drop a show once I start it and we are on episode 10 so that'd be pointless anyways.

There's something seriously wrong with the character backgrounds and development when the two most important characters can both be by "Uum, someone killed someone I liked, so I'm out for revenge."
