This show is just The Boys but worse, and animated badly. And the main character wants to be a cop.
In episode three there's a guy who wants to destroy Mount Rushmore and talks about how the presidents were slaveowners, but he's the bad guy and an evil doctor.
The show loves gratuitous violence and bloodshed like being an animation with blood makes it cool, but this has been trash so far.
Give me Castlevania any day over some shit like this, and why oh god are the episodes an hour long to do nothing with that time?

I only pray they don't end up using a similar half-3D style for the anime coming out soon, but I've seen that suggested a lot for the more complex monsters.
And god, this series is so painfully unfunny. Not a single joke has been good. CSM's humor is actually humorous and its jokes that are based on the character's personalities give it life.
It's being produced by MAPPA, so it could be anything at all lol. They handled the last season of AoT, Dorohedoro, Jujutsu Kaisen, and Yuri on Ice.
The CGI in Dorohedoro seems kind of wooden when they use it for characters, but looks fine for environments and so on.
Yeah, I watched some clips from Dorohedoro so if they end up doing that I'd be disappointed. The fight scenes are the most fluid part of CSM and the stagnant quality of 3D would really take away from them.
Twitter has some awesome fan animated versions of fights, it's really impressive what some people have made adapting the panels.
