I've watched all of Fire Force and am 25 chapters into the manga. Ho fuck. This show is gud.
First, it's a post apocalypse done right. The world is the way it is, society has rebuilt, none of this zombie movie "just trying to survive man! " bullshit. Because of this, the fire powers and assorted bullshit make sense. I can't stress it enough, I dig the world building.
The plot is fucking cool. People are turning into fire zombies, some chick is powering a nuclear reactor in the middle of Tokyo, canonically you can be cursed with such bad luck as to lose your clothes if a man looks at you, and a church that isn't totally evil but was also founded on a lie. Holy fuck that's a lot.
Also the religious aspect. The Japanese usually use Christianity as window dressing. It feels like a LOT of thought went into the religious stuff, and how people would cope if the world just exploded in flames one day. Even when revealed to be a lie, they don't go public with the info, because, yeah, society would break down.
Fanservice. I was not disappointed. I am surprised it pissed so many people off though. Yes the cat girl is a gag character that loses her clothes at the drop of a hat. It's fucking funny because NO ONE takes her seriously. As for everyone else, yes, characters have tiddies. Why are you mad twitter.com? They aren't ugly or some shit?
Overall I've had a fantastic ride. I can't wait to finish the manga.
