Everyone was really cute and I liked it more than I thought I would. Yagen looked especially good. The part with Hachisuka in his sparkling gold armor was one of the episode highlights for me, along with Namazuo and the horse poop. Hope to see Tsuru making an appearance next week or in a later episode soon _(┐「ε:)_

It seems like the show will be about Yams adjusting to the citadel life while coming to terms with his past and getting to know the other swords and bringing home new swords along the way, probably something like that, more or less. It's not perfect but I'm appeased by how cute everyone is, rip.

And I'm not too bothered by the people not getting it or being uninterested. I think the ufotable adaptation is the one that will probably stand a better chance of appealing to non-fans while Hanamaru is more for our/the fandom's enjoyment, getting to see our favorite swords in animated form and all the game references and everything.
