How do you enjoy Fire Emblem Three Houses?

What part of this game do you enjoy the most? Or what is it about the game that draws you to it? Better yet, how do you play the game? (As in would you prefer to tediously engage in every mechanic and pay careful attention to each of your students and have full control over battle, or do you prefer to let students study what they want and let the battles go on auto mode? Or a combination of both?)

I bought this game a while back and while I like the premise, it has been hard for me to get into it. I find all the different mechanics and things to do a bit overwhelming and hard to process. So I wanted to see why others enjoy it so maybe I can find a playstyle I can enjoy too :).
