Anyone watch it? What are your thoughts? I just breezed through all of season 1 on netflix without realizing it, kinda wanting more since it ended so abruptly :chomp2:

It was pretty decent I thought. Some of the characters were kind of just dying left and right though before you could even actually get attached to them. It took awhile for the artstyle to grow on me. That kind of cell shade or whatever just isn't my thing. The manga looks pretty nice though so if I were you, I'd check that one out.

Yeah I feel you there, it was hard for me to get used to the art style mixed with what looked like watercolor backgrounds. The animation reminded me of that one weirdly animated episode of adventure time with the hair-eating virus -- to a certain degree anyways, but it won me over in the end. And yeah, I wasn't really satisfied with where season 1 left off, so I'm definitely gonna delve into the manga :]
