>>29255908Stop overthinking a product tie-in show aimed at kids. It's fine to watch the anime, but trying to make it something it isn't is not good for you.
If you want to actually get "invested" in that kind of sense then go watch a real, good show.
I recommend Fargo, The Wire, The Sopranos.
Or Death Note, Code Geass, Great Teacher Onizuka if you want anime.
