So he told me to give piece of my mind about it since he hasn't watched it yet. (Just to reassure you. We are cousins. So we do have close contact with each other and if necessary, access to each other's accounts)

If you had to hear my thoughts on it, I'd say one thing: It's slow. It's taking quite some time to get to the meat of it but I think it's understandable. It's like your FF with all those introductory episodes presenting us with the characters. I guess it's fine especially since some character archetypes and features may differ from the original CFV, given that it's based on the manga rather than an altered plot. And I'm telling you this now: The manga version is far darker than the Vanguard you're used to.

If it does travel in the direction of the manga without any censorship, then we'd better be prepared to see the following: Misaki covered in her parent's blood during the accident that killed them both, a sillouhetted frame of Aichi being impaled through the forehead, Ren's psychologically and physically abusive father, Asaka walking her servant around as a dog and electrocution fights.

But that's only an "if". If it proceeds in a separate direction to the manga. I'll be back to discuss it with you again, I suppose. it's a matter of patience. Right now we just got reintroduced to Koutei and he hasn't seemed to have changed too much so I'm not that alarmed.
