Cons: audience appeal, age appropriateness
Needle drops and song choices are repeatedly praised for establishing melancholy, energy, and tonal contrast. The opening music and recurring selections help connect the season’s emotional and action-heavy passages.
Pros: story quality, character development
Cons: animation quality, season pacing
The music works best in quieter scenes, where it supports longing without forcing the emotional response.

The music is generally effective at creating a nervous, urgent mood, though its techno familiarity and occasional overstatement draw criticism.

The modern, high-energy soundtrack helps sell the youthful Ritchie style for many viewers, but others find the choices dated, anachronistic, or potentially quick to age.
Pros: entertainment value, cast chemistry
Cons: faithfulness to source material, plot clarity
Soundtrack response is generally positive for 1930s songs, jazzy atmosphere, and score choices that heighten the noir mood. The one notable complaint says the music sometimes strays from the period.

The soundtrack is one of the more dependable pleasures for nostalgia-minded viewers. The caveat is that some needle drops and grunge references feel too obvious or not specific enough.

The haunting, contemporary songs have admirers and may appeal to younger viewers. Repeated complaints target ill-fitting or overly literal needle drops that explain emotions already clear onscreen.
Pros: main cast performance, character development
Cons: story quality, finale satisfaction
Music and needle drops can add playfulness, but some find the soundtrack surprisingly weak or intrusive.
Pros: chemistry between characters, entertainment value
Cons: character development, romance quality
