- Critics and fans have raised issues with the anime's pacing, which compresses key scenes and reduces the impact of dramatic moments and character development.
- Significant moments, such as Choi Jong-In's showcase of his S-rank abilities, were omitted, leading to concerns about the sidelining of secondary characters in favor of focusing on protagonist Sung Jinwoo.
- The anime's fast pacing and reliance on cliffhangers have been divisive, with some fans praising the action while others feel the episodes end too abruptly.
