Two things interest me about this show. First, seeing what caused Aki to turn out how he did given that he seems more scarred than anything else in the pre-credits bit. Second, the fact that the little sister can summon a kakashi and is the one being trained in doing so. The ensuing unusual sibling dynamic is one of the show's big strengths IMO. The fact that the constraints of the urban setting upon the ability of the combatants to do their worst were taken seriously was nice too.
However, both the little sister and Aki seemed a little uninspired to me. And I have to admit that the machine-ish nature of the summoned gods rubs me the wrong way (I had the same problem with a few other shows). So while I like the show, its not a list topper by any means.
