I take it this will be a heavy "go check manga/LN", it's been jarring to watch.

I loved the first three episodes though! Pity it couldn't keep up that momentum.

First off, where is the anime meds nurse?
I mean, this entire thing has left me with whiplash and the over"Wel"ming feeling of partial memory loss.

I get that there's much that can be lost when switching to the animated medium.
But this has had me rewatching, pausing randomly to see if there's like a split-second scene (when it just turns out to be an animation blip), or looking for TL notations.

From the reviews regarding the Manga/LN, supposedly this is fantastic to read, and you can smell it in each episode, BUT THE PIE NEVER COMES PUT OF THE OVEN.
You just sit down, and there's a plate with crumbs and a little filling smeared on the plate with a used fork of someone who ate before you.

I'm still tuning in weekly. I want so badly for a connective semi-stable episode to pop in, but each time there's just these immediate cuts, large confusion as to "who tf is this?" "When did they find that out?" "What are they here/doing this and it's just a given they'd be here?" "Where tf did this happen?" "Why aren't they showing any of this?" And you end up trying so hard to logic in plot that you're pulled from the experience.

I'm not saying this to bash on anyone's fav story, in fact, I'm happy that you were able to get it on another medium to enjoy. I earnestly want to enjoy it as well, especially with how much is being delayed/cancelled due to the Rona Empire. But damn, I feel like an amnesiac watching.

As for the voicing, I'm sure the VAs are doing fantastically. But the lines/scenes are just kinda... missing. Like why is this being highlighted? What's the significance? If it's that important, why is the delivery monotone and unenthusiastic? Is this supposed to be the yelling character? Is this character FMA Armstrong type / OPM Puri Puri Princess? Are you just detached from the character or is this really the current mood?

Figured I'd ask as I'm just bewildered trying to give it an honest viewing.
It seems like there's enough missing / enough crammed in that this could have easily been a 2-4 cour run instead of 1. We're 9/12 atm for future readers, and I've no clue what exactly they're reaching for in the next 3 episodes.

TL;DR: amnesiac viewing experience, 10/10 would mix up anime meds again.
