Dunno what it is with this serie but something felt off all the way from ep 1 to 12. I'm guessing it's the storytelling.
They had good ideas tho, siding Ryo a bit to develop side characters but they went way too far with it.
The 20 years at the start didn't really felt like it was that long, it felt like a few weeks...
In the end the show became more about everything but Ryo....
So yeah, lot a potentially good ideas but messed up.
The sad thing is that it's not even good enough for me to keep it as anime I could rewatch because there's isn't even enough slice of life for that.
