Put it plainly, you have to accept the kung-fu nuns from the beginning to manage enjoyment from this show. And it's certainly a thing that sets the show apart, better or worse. Beyond this obvious point, the show is religious conspiracy, and more than anything, a coming of age story. The lead- even if she may come off grinding for those looking for, well, the kung fu nuns- feels extremely human and makes you feel for her. The world seems to be against her, but to anyone familiar with the feelings of being lost and pressured, her desperate "I want to live." echoes deep. Beyond the lead, most of the characters have interesting backstories, which hopefully would be explored more beyond season 1. Right now there seems plenty of characters that have been introduced and then dropped without proper pay off, somewhat wasting the watcher's time and attachment.
