Ep 1

The Good: The animation and fighting choreography are all on point. The art-direction and music is pretty good too. I haven't played FGO but I have listened to it's OST and I recognize all of the tracks and they have been used to good effect.

Not so Hot: The direction and script is kind of awkward at the moment. Scene transitions are a abrupt which hurt the flow of the moment to moment story beats particularity when some characters just show up have their little action scene and Fujimura weirdly blabs out everything about themselves to anyone in earshot without nary a word of caution. Everyone seems just understand what going on in this era without a problem which is a bit jarring as you expect more friction and bewilderment given the circumstances. Feels like writers just wants to speed-run the setup. At least they had Enkidu act a bit surprised at a handshake. The first OVA didn't feel like this, eitherway it hope that evens out soon.

Otherwise it was a fine premiere.
