I think I'm one of the few people that really don't get the hype around this anime. I absolutely love the opening song, and the concept/plot was really intriguing which encouraged me to watch it in the first place. But watching it... was a bit lacklustre. I wish I could say I like the main characters, but I think the majority of them are mediocre at best. Not only that but the repetitive fan service was overwhelming and made me want to quick the show on multiple occasions. It happened too often and most were not funny at all/ forced humour. I watched it for the action/intense scenes, not for clothes flying off every 5 minutes during a serious fight scene. The female characters all have no substance and are just there to support the male characters and it's pretty sad to watch. It is a shame as I really felt like this show had potential. However, I rated it 6/10 because I think it's too premature to write the anime off too early and I'll give season two a second chance but... I don't have high hopes.

Fire Force is a great anime, though many would disagree, first of all the animation is great, most people jump to conclusions, saying that the fanservice is tasteless simply because it was implemented poorly just once, and I'll try to keep the review short:

The story is nice but definitely has some flaws, most villains are more or less generic but they are interesting, though this is my own opinion. you may find the MC to be less than original, which I agree with, but he definitely is an interesting character at least for me.

now then time for the flaws: the first two episodes were fine but after that it got a bit all over the place, there was barely any proper continuity and some parts felt a bit out of place, though I assure you I have read the manga and such issues will soon be fixed, the first major arc was a bit too fastpaced for it to make much sense, and other than that the show is genuinely fun to watch.

Its very fun to watch the new weekly epilsode on friday after a long week of work

It has a really good lore and quite upsetting stories. You can kind of relate to the characters and the anime has a great story and many good action scenes. This is definitely going to be a good anime when finished.
