I actually finished watching episode 1 right as you replied. Definitely one of the best 1st episodes I've seen. The art style and animation are amazing, and the characters already seem well written. Usually I need more time with characters to care about them, but I liked them in just a few minutes.

I checked out chapter 1 of the manga right after, and I can see what you mean about the art. If they're able to deliver that level of quality art on a weekly basis, that's pretty impressive, haha.
