Production is ok, script is mediocre, the overall impression is "it tries to be one of that new adult cartoons of the new wave, but does not quite hit it".

The characters are remade to appeal the audience in consonance with the internet jokes/stereotypes circulating about them for ages (stoner / white golden boy / white golden girl).

The "childhood fans" are furious due to vulgarity and all the changes, the newcoming adult audience does not quite get it due to humor being a bit dull and the script lacking, the teenage audience doesn't get it at all.

It doesn't have a lot of undeserved 10/10s to begin with, so I have no idea why there are thousands of undeserved 1/10s.

Actual rating would've been 5/10 as for me, however, since "the war" has already started and a lot of users are giving unreasonable 10/10s, so...

3d CGI is not that bad and overall production quality is pretty impressive. There is not too much to add about the bright side.

Half the mysteries are revealed from the start, characters and the atmosphere is, well, underwhelming.

I was hoping there will be some grand change in plot or some interesting sidestory unveiled considering all the lore uncovered in the very first episode, however there are still no signs of it happening.

I still wonder: if the script writers (or a director?) do want to show that they added some value for the anime to not be "just a remake" then why not come up with a bunch of completely new stories and completely new characters instead of going "it's a remake, but MC is now an idiot instead of trickster and his love interest now is a talking donkey with colorful hair".
