Reviews

this would’ve been better if they didn’t Batman the main charectar ( the whole no Killing thing), the main reason why is because it is not a full length episodal series. Certain moments when she first fights the telekinetic girl I understood but it’s so short tyhatvit hurts the story.

Discussions

It's certainly eye candy, but otherwise, imo it's just your bog standard battle shounen. 2.5 stars feels right to me.
