One thing that should be clarified as I watched the series as it was airing:
the fans LOVE the first half of crimson moon- it's the second half that earned the series it's lackluster reputation

Though if I had to point out why?
It would have to be Douman completly falling flat when compared to Mendoza, other big bads in the franchise and even other depictions of him in anime and games (Fate/Grand Order' version comes to mind)

This guy is supposed to be the archenemy to Seimei, a complete antithesis to Seimei and someone who ABSOLUTLY despises Seimei above all else
But his garo version? just a boring edgelord that does nothing but talk about darkness and is evil just for the sake of being evil
And the biggest insult is that garo already did this exact type of villian much better- in the first live action series
