You know, I just looked up information on the director, and now I think I understand why it's animated the way it is, provided this is up to him.

A previous show he had worked on, was the Ape Escape (Saru! Getchu) anime, which aired a number of years back. The show was produced and heavily cel-shaded, which most of the animation wasn't terrible, but it wasn't fantastic either. However, the show had instances where it would shift between 2D Animation and then back to 3D Animation. I remember like some of the facial reactions were done in 2D, including the scene where Koota transforms into Spector (one of the first scenes you see in the anime too). It also used the thing with having 3D Animation on top of 2D backgrounds.
