On the other hand, the same is true for other shows of Kunihiko Ikuhara: Yurikuma Arashi and Sarazanmai are also like that. IDK, maybe it's supposed to be this way.
In any case, let it not spoil the show for you as it doesn't make it any worse overall, other than the finale, the plot is great, the visuals are stunning and Etsuko Yakushimaru's music in the show's opening is top notch!
