It did feel like they were phoning it in, yeah. More callbacks to the original series with some bridging for GBFT than actual substance. Carbon copy antagonist, Reiji pulling a Deus Ex Machina to help Sei just like in the first episode, their duel ending ambiguously...
I dunno, it wasn't as good as it really could've been, but it's what y'all have been begging for.
