Those CG's look pretty good and not nearly as graphic as I thought they'd be (unless these are the mild ones? Hopefully not because I'm not a fan of gore). I prefer no spoilers so I'd probably just give it a try. It seems pretty long though, so I'd have to make time for it.
Also, I think I understand why you said there's story butchering, since the anime is halfway done and I don't think they have even given a hint about those bad guys yet.
