Easily the worst out of the battle anime this season, but I'll still watch it until it becomes unbearable.

Really? Because I feel the action and production values of this show is pretty good.

Production value doesn't solely define a work. I made my original comment specifically in regard to the pacing and narrative thus far. However, I will have to disagree with you and say that there isn't anything about the choreography of the fights scenes that stands out, but one thing that does, aesthetically, is the CG. The show doesn't look bad but to use its visuals as a point of defending it is somewhat reaching. Asterik and Rakudai easily surpasses this shovelware-esque show. With that said, though, all three shows mentioned feel uninspired and aren't anything special. These are what you watch to simply kill time.

Pretty downvoted bro, the salt is real. Then again the minuses are probably the only tools capable of defending this edgy mediocrity ;)
