PLOT
A decent way to make cyberpunk meet fantasy, but obviously not perfect. The shock that the main character had having to downgrade his lifestyle was good, but they rid of it almost instantly. The antagonists are so blatantly made as caricatures of an Evil CEO and His Foreigner SecretaryTM.
There's only 5 episodes out as of the day I'm writing this review, however I fear the plot will still be easy to predict.

CHARACTERS
The main characters are the conventionally pretty humans, and stated before, the antagonists are just caricatures (also humanoids), and the background characters as just whatever so far. Both sides very "edgy" and honestly just ... a little cringe sometimes.
Despite the relationship between the main character and other immortals is king-vassals, that is not the case between Veltol and Machina. If you are a fan of "we're basically just married" dynamics then ding-ding-ding -- they're just that.

ART AND ANIMATION
Typical modern "good-looking" anime artstyle with some colorful accents that adds some dynamics, makes the whole thing more visually appealing, and adds some uniqueness to the anime.
The opening (visually) isn't too good, especially compared to other action or fantasy animes, but at least it doesn't give out any major spoilers (afaik)

MUSIC
Now, this is the part that prompted the thought of leaving a review. If you are a fan of "cyberpunk music" THIS IS IT. As a fan of cyberpunk genre (games, books, movies, etc.) I find this anime's OST very nice.

Recommended if you're a fan of cyberpunk. And if not - you should still give it a try.
