Goin from promising, to bad, to disapointment
BS episode. Whoever wrote this tripe, i suggest they actually live in the real world for a while before putting pen on paper ever again. Ever heard of the stages of grief? Doubtful since depression is usually among the last, not the first. Ever heard of grief making you get so angry that you go berserk, quite literally? Or of needing support to get through it, not simply being left alone? And before you ask, yes, not even terminal cases are left alone. Either family or actual professionals are to always be by your side 'til the end. Neither another's life experience nor centuries of psychological studies are of any use, so why bother acknowledging their existence at all. Also, why bother using military discipline and tactics to raise your kid when you're from a martial society where might makes right? That makes no sense. Why bother being a special branch of a government when you can just recruit metas off the street and throw them into battle without proper team building or training! I mean, every government agency and military company on the planet do it to show off, not because it has any real meaning. Must be really nice in that idealistic pacifist bubble of yours. Worst episode script yet. I was expecting something like in the comics but more realistic. Hell, even the actual comic itself simply translated into animation would've been nice. Oh, wait, you can't! Because you had to heavily deviate from the comics in the first season for some reason. Instead, you went full soy-boy with this one and then just kept going deeper. After this first episode, if this makes it to season 3 without getting canceled by low ratings, it'll be a miracle.
If any of the actual writers from this train-wreck waiting to happen of a show bother reading this, from an actual military man that lost his father young (who was also military), here's a piece of advice that you should really listen to: making your characters more realistic, with actual strengths and weaknesses that make sense, with actual inner struggles, feelings and emotions that go beyond the self loathing of a teen, even in a fantasy setting, is done to make them relatable, even if just a little bit, to your audience (aka paying customers) so you can entertain them. This is not it.
