SPOILER ALERT if you haven't watched the show yet read at your own risk

Alright gentlemen fasten your seat belts for we are going to delve into the big failure that this show has fallen into
from what this show could offer, it is nothing compared to what it did
the story takes place in an apocalyptic world at the end of civilization
among all the wreck and collapsed buildings it revolves around a group of girls (it is implied that they are not human which i'll get into in the characters section) who happen to fight Unknown entities so called "Bugs"/"Mushi" in order ... to survive this cruel environment, they also have to find water which they consume dozens of 'cuz y'know "Life needs water". the souls of those girls in the story are represented by leaves, which wither by time if they don't get water.
with this being the premise is actually pretty good in fact I was hooked when I read the synopsis.

now we get into what I hated the most about this show, the characters
it doesn't have a lot but they're all obnoxious and feel awkward especially the Main character "Wakaba" an annoying human brat which the fact of him having curiosity about everything is forcefully ingrained everywhere in the show in contrast to the other girls (who like I said are not human) this also implies that curiosity is the main core in evolution because the girls are incapable of being curious thus not going any further. This show cherry-picks what it thinks is "Good" for the audience
because you have the catgirl, the loli(s), the tsundere and lastly the delinquent
it tried to mesh fetish and "the dark elements" in it making it more awkward and ironic, there's also the "Love" element which just like I said is hand-picked for the audience, I mean heck why are they capable of Love (they call it poison lmao) and friendship or "Liking stuff", and not capable of being curious or having the sense of adventure, are they being more human as they interact more with wakaba? Probably not.

the art is amazing and some shots look cool but it's screwed up by the cgi
because everyone knows, when you're going to have a show with fighting scenes
the cgi (if is poorly executed/done) only makes it worse.
I don't have much to say about the voice acting as it fits the annoying characters of wakaba and the rinas (seriously rinas' is earrape )

At last I couldn't enjoy this show and I dropped it because of all the reasons mentioned above, I forgot to mention that this show is taking the drift of becoming an Isekai-harem show so Yeah...
If I had one thing to praise about this show it would be its opening song honestly
I downloaded it just so that I can headbang to it.
