I never read or watched the original but it all seems fine to me, Lettuce still very bare bones

It definitely gives them a better service than the manga did. Mint in particular had good moments to shine in eps 5 and 6. Mermaid Lettuce was nice too. However, the IchigoxAoyama episodes are the ones I'm skipping. I admit they're putting some effort to not make Aoyama seem TOO boring here, but it's still not enough for me to like their romantic plot. I actually think my problem is that their whole drama centers around Ichigo trying to hide her secret identity for no reason other than generic 'He'll think I'm a freak' yet she does such a shitty job at hiding her secret that she must think Aoyama is a dumbass to not figure out he has found her out already. It doesn't help I'm not invested in either of their characters to begin with. I'm actually skipping today's episode because it'll be nothing but 'Ichigo turns into a cat' shenanigans. Both in the manga and first anime, I found that part super pointless and stupid. Personally, I still prefer how the OG anime added fillers to give background to the characters. Pudding's episode with her siblings and the teacher is one of my favorites. But I understand the reboot is trying to stick to the manga for the most part so I should be glad there's changes to give the other girls some focus at all because Ichigo got pretty much all the spotlight in the manga.
