Firstly, the recap, intro and preview take up a lot of the episode, Yes. Only these days it's really not that difficult to skip it and get straight back into the part you're up to. So no issues there.

The show, is captivating and unique, Fire Rescue is super interesting and whilst the events that take place may be exaggerated for viewer entertainment, It's not hard to imagine many of these rescues or similar taking place somewhere around the world. The traits for these rescuer's highlight their bravery, courage and determination to save people and it was easy to connect with these characters. It focuses mostly ... on the efforts of the Fuwa Special Rescue Corps and it's two latest recruits; Toake Daigo and Onoda Shun. Their development, whilst it sometimes skips ahead in time, was really good. It demonstrates how their rescues and experiences shape them and their outlook on each other which in turn shows the importance of teamwork and the strong bonds and trust required between one another when performing a rescue.

The reasons why my rating isn't any higher is because the show often refers back to whatever's happening in the first 5 minutes of the show, but then fades back out without really informing you about what it is or what's going on and the timelines are a bit messy and difficult to keep track of. Also some event's you think might be pretty important or interesting, suddenly get skipped to the end result and you're just left with a feeling like what happened ? But that's it, everything else was good, music, story, characters, rescues

I think this is right up the alley of anyone who enjoys action dramas and definitely recommend giving it a go, the MAL score seems sadly low/underrated.
