I finally finished Re:Creators. I thought it was okay but a few aspects of the story really bothered me.
Too often the story depended on the absolute stupidity of the characters (Alice, Charon, etc) and even knowing that was just a reflection of how they were written in-universe... I didn't like it. Re:Creators also dealt with the character abilities in a way I don't enjoy. I prefer it when powers are defined and then used in interesting ways. Magane is actually a great example of this. The use of her lie at the end to summon Setsuna made perfect sense and was set up awesomely. However, Magane's role in the story paled in comparison to the Goddess of BS named Altair, who dealt with powers in a way that I hated. The entire second half was 'nice try but I have NEW POWER that I literally pulled out of my ass and it negates what you just did' and I rolled my eyes every single time.
Still, I acknowledge that both of these aspects were central to the characters and the story so I won't whine any more. It just didn't appeal to me personally. At least Magane got a happy ending, she was my favorite! ---
