They couldn't be further apart, but something about this show reminds me of Luck & Logic. I'm not even sure if I can place my finger on it, but I just get that impression. Maybe it's the serious plot and worldbuilding undermined by cute girls, kids gloves combat and themes? Shitty CGI monsters that are supposed to be a huge world-threat, but end up harmless and/or mascots?
I just don't know, but anything that reminds me of that trash anime is a terrible thing and this is no exception. I'll stick it out regardless, since it's an interesting concept and there's a boatload more episodes to go (why the fuck did this get 24 episodes?) so there is room for improvement. But I'm not really holding my breath on it.
The girls are fairly cute though, I guess.
