Impressive animation

Not a bad start at all. The new animation style really suits the show, especially during the action sequences and fight scenes, where the fluid movement and detailed backgrounds shine. The episode itself was decent, mostly setting things up for what's to come. I'm still curious to see where it's all heading. You can definitely feel that My Hero Academia influence lingering in the mix. That alley scene, for some reason, even gave me TMNT vibes.

That said, we're once again stuck with a wimpy, whiny protagonist. But to be fair, this could actually work out well in terms of character development,it has potential if done right.
