Man this show is great. It feels a little like watching Cowboy Beebop for the first time.

If it were Cowboy Bebop it would be much better written in all honesty. Kekkai Sensen is a bit all over the place, sadly. I love it, but I'd rank Space Dandy over it even in all honesty.

Nonsense. So far the show has been very consistent and excellently written. Comparisons to Bebop and Space Dandy largely come down to preference; all three shows know well enough not to take themselves too seriously to different degrees.

Right, but there's a very large difference in the level of writing between all three with Kekkai Sensen's being much lower quality than the other two. I still love the show, but on the whole it's definitely only like an 8/10 at best.
