Fairy Gone MAL Review

I don't review animes I didn't enjoy - not as often as I used to anyway. But I felt like I had to speak up about this one - it's confusing from start to finish. The first episode had a lot of potential: historic setting, fairy fantasies, and a dash of military power and action. There's clearly a backstory between the protagonist and her long-lost childhood best friend suddenly appearing as an enemy. It had all the makings of a wonderful, intruiging story.  And then it kinda goes downhill by the 4th episode. There's too many plotholes to list (LOL) so I'm just going to type a few points why it the series fell short: - The art is beautiful, but the world building and timeline is communicated very poorly. There's a lot of "U.E. 1940, 1945" etc. when the screen could have simply said "5 years later" "1 year later." Seriously. I don't think they even cover what the U.E. stands for?  - By the way, there's no map of anything. T
