Anybody get a chance to check out the premiere yet?

Just did. Going to couch this with the fact that I played the game and thought it was pretty good but I was not super into it and did not probe it for its secrets, so if you're looking for a read on if there's any hints on subverting the story or anything like that I'm not the person to ask.

It seems like a straightforward adaptation based on my memory of it. The 2d animation is pretty good, the CG is kind of stiff and sticks out from the rest of the art. There's a lot of CG so it ends up being kind of unfortunate looking.

They got up to the point where 9S uploads 2B's consciousness to the space station so there's not a ton of opportunity for the writing to stick out yet, and the action seems just okay. I'm honestly looking for people more into Nier to watch and see if anything weird I don't remember is happening or if it's as straightforward as it seems, because if it's the latter I think I'm out.

The OP is fantastic, at least.
