The story is a mixed bag. There are moments where it hints at interesting side plots or worldbuilding threads, but these are quickly undermined by the protagonist’s oddly immature behavior. It often feels like you're watching a teenager in an old man's body, which clashes with his supposed experience and status.
To be honest, there’s no real sense that the main character has life experience beyond fighting with a sword. That lack of depth makes the anime feel hollow at times. It’s disappointing, especially since the premise seemed to promise more.
Overall, it’s a typical entry in this genre—fine for background viewing, but not something that demands your attention. The art is serviceable, but nothing stands out. A decent watch if you're not expecting much, but certainly not a must-see.
