Ah, all my rl friends really liked it--I'm glad to get some sense what the general consensus was! If half the fans of the anime hated the live-action version, though, it makes sense why they didn't greenlight a second season.
I definitely know people who just hate any live-action version if it differs in any way from the original. (I know a guy who hates all LOTR live adaptations for that reason.) But I feel like, why even make it if you're not going to do something new with a new version? I love movies and shows that take stuff in a new direction and add their own spin.
