In all honesty, the action sequences are one of the absolute best parts of the show.
The team dynamic doesn’t gel well and the story suffers for it.
Unlike many other anime shows, it is an original concept rather than an adaptation.
However, it also means it can’t benefit from a preexisting history for the characters.
And while it touches on these for each character, none of them are particularly well-defined or thought-out.
And with people due to start dying, there is no sense of urgency.
Visually, the show doesn’t really stand out from other animes.
The characters are less enigmatic and the pace feels incredibly laid back.
In 2052, humanity celebrates unprecedented peace, thanks to Hapuna—a miracle drug eradicating pain and illness. Three years later, its creator, Dr. Skinner, resurfaces with a grim revelation: Hapuna is a delayed toxin, and death looms for all who took it. With just 30 days to avert catastrophe, a global task force called Lazarus assembles to locate Skinner and develop a cure.
