Jeez Michiko you risked your well-being to save Hatchin from kidnappers and now you've slapped her three times this episode.

A "shounen" protag finds out his friends that he was going onto a journey with were brutally tortured, he has no qualms with killing in the first episode, and it doesn't turn out like a typical shounen protags adventure is supposed to play out.

And that's generic? The fuck are you guys watching.
 
The show is deconstruction of the shounen/adventure genre. It's also an ode to the extreme violence of the 80's/90's. It's silly because it is meant to be.

That dub is fuck awful though.
Eva is a deconstruction, Madoka is a deconstruction.
You cant be an ode and a deconstruction at the same time. Also why are all children besides hatchin fucking evil.

Outside of the whole not being bothered by killing Tatsumi could not get more generic if he tried,
