But thats not really an achievement considering the absolute flat characters most of the cast already is. There is the main lackey who is 14% more charming that the main villain. It is also really odd that this was the thing that the author decided to pick as a villain. The main villain is this autistic dumbass who needs a haircut, who's entire thing is pointing its finger at its forehead. I don't understand why they author thought that was a good idea. It established the premise and expected that to carry for the rest of the series. It literally is a walking simulator without any of the interesting parts.
Without any of the action, any of the banter, likability, and general entertainment.
It is like if one piece was all about Luffy using the boat and finding the one piece. I understand the appeal of a laid back slow paced series. It makes the first half of clannad look like fucking sonic. It is a series that stumbles on the very first step. It has a very good and nice premise but by far one of the worst executions i have ever seen. I don't know how the author makes something with a premise this badass boring, but he did it. So now he goes on a journey to clear his name and put a stop to the person making these murders.
Afterwards a string of murders occur benefiting Tenma so he ends up as the primary suspect. Which leads to Tenma losing his promotion amongst other things. He risks his career and reputation to save a small boy rather than an official.
