This was a great show for me, very atmospheric, with great music by Max Richter (whom I really admire), until I saw an astronaut "swimming through space". Yes, propelling through the void of space, by making "swimming" moves. It completely devastated any atmosphere of mystery the series was building. So, it is a great show, up until you reach the swimming astronaut. The whole scene felt like at that moment some invisible curtain opened and the clowns flooded the theater. It was like watching something entirely different, to the point of making sure I'm on the right channel.
After a brief search, I see that some people are interpreting this as a dream sequence. That makes sense, the fact that Hinata is swimming is meant to be a clue that this is a dream, in which case negative criticism is not warranted. But there aren't any other indications that this was indeed a dream sequence. I really hope this wasn't Apple's swimming astronaut circus.
I still left my rating at 8, because up to that specific scene the show was amazing, gripping, highly enjoyable.
