Though I do like them, I'll have to agree. Their characters feel very....safe?
We have the:
Serious out for revenge due to past yet now slowly becoming girly - Kyouka
"We don't need this guy but now I'm use to him, and have some respect for him" type tsun (not quite dere yet) - Himari
Everybody's little sister super innocent saint (easy to love though) - Nei (I would like her more if she was at least like Sasami and had a prankster side)
again, I like them.....but character wise they fall short of nearly everyone else introduced: Tenka, Yachiho, Shushu, his sister Aoba and her crew, and some of the new captains and commander.
