Part 7/10:
Neon mentions that certain elements, like space visuals, look decent. However, the overall production feels budget-constrained and fan-filmy, lacking the polish and atmosphere of the anime. The series appears to have been filmed in front of large screens typical for Disney or studio productions, but the result is underwhelming.
The "fun" aspects of the original—such as the complex relationships, jazzy soundtrack, and nuanced character development—are missing or poorly adapted. Instead, the show feels forced, inconsistent, and unsatisfying.
