I love the graphics and the imagination/creation of fantasy powers and items.
I was laughing a lot while watching the episodes. There are lot of jokes in there :D

Why isn't this fandom bigger?
This show is gold. I have laughed and yelled at the screen the whole way through. It is massive high on campy energy but so sweet at times. This is not a BL. I repeat this is not a BL even if the leads look longingly into each others eyes and have an epic threeway bromance. Even if in the second episode when then they finally have their big fight to see who the toughest is tbey can't get over how cute the other is and instead hug it out. Like that really happens. And when two of them are drugged and about to be hurt the third saves them and the first question asked when there were zero girls around is 'but was I still hot?' Like every thing about this show is gold. When the big villian of the first bit reviews himself and King Arthur is suddenly being betrayed and blackballed it is painful to see and this is from a goofy campy comedy!? This has the acting style of a 90s power rangers show but they own it. They plot is good the acting is funny the leads are so likable I about cried seeing there wasn't even 1 english fanfiction online of it but it is awesome. I had only recently discovered this gem of a show and I am already rewatching it. I understand now why it has a large fallowing in its own country but I really really want more ppl here to watch it for 100% my own selfishness of wanting to fangirl over this show with somebody else its so fun and so stupid but in a good way and the more King Arthur and Ta-tung I can get the better. So many things I could not get over in these the first episode is all set up it really starts goong in episode 2. Would recommend would rewatch would love to see more love for K.O. One!!!!!!!Was this review helpful to you?
Corny Comedy Done Right in Ko One
This is the kind of drama where you can completely turn off your brain and just enjoy. It is not meant to be taken seriously at all, and that is honestly part of its charm. The story is very funny and lighthearted, leaning heavily into exaggerated characters, over the top humor, and fantasy elements. It is definitely corny, but in a good way, the kind of corny that feels intentional. The drama embraces how ridiculous it is, which makes it easy to watch without overthinking the plot or logic.The character dynamics are another reason the show works so well. Instead of focusing on emotional depth or realism, Ko One prioritizes entertainment and fun. The fight scenes, special effects, and dramatic rivalries feel more like a comic book come to life than a grounded story. This approach may not appeal to everyone, but for viewers looking for pure escapism, it does exactly what it sets out to do.
The person who really made this show for me was definitely Zhang Hao Ming as Jin Bao San. He is clearly there for comedic relief, but he elevates the humor in a way that feels natural rather than forced. His timing, expressions, and exaggerated reactions make many scenes memorable, and he often steals the spotlight even when he is not the main focus. I definitely wished we had more screen time of him, as his presence consistently made the episodes more enjoyable and helped balance out the more dramatic moments.
Overall, Ko One is not a drama you watch for a deep or meaningful message, but that is perfectly okay. It succeeds as a fun, silly, and nostalgic series that does not take itself seriously and invites the audience to do the same.

Idk about this one
I was hoping the cool girl students would get more of a story and screen time as well even tho I am only on episode 8. Why make them look so baddie but not give them much to say or do? Like "Gokusen" (The Jap show) they should've just made this in all boys school. And I cannot stand King Arthur and his sexism. The comedy here is gold and this feels like a spoof of"Gokusen"... but I find myself not caring for most of the characters in general. So far the only characters I like are the Ultimate Class teacher (she is so cute), Lei Ke Si, and Jin Bao San.
The episodes should've be shorter... at least 22 minutes per episode. If this show was a lot more serious with its drama and fantasy side then I can understand it being 43 minutes. But 43 minutes for a show like this is ridiculous. I'm only on episode 8 but I will give it until episode 16 (since that is already half the show... the show has 32 episode episodes in total). And by episode 16 l'll add more to my review!

if you like the kind of yankee, delinquent fight dramas and you also like comedy, this is the drama for you.
its rele rele rele funny and also has lots of cool action and effects.
fahrenheit/feilunhai being the leads is a total bonus too.
jiro wang dong cheng definitely shows an interesting side of himself here.
with a lot of friendship values as well as a hint of romance, and ALOT of wuxia/magic/kick-buttness, this is just an awesome drama.
i highly recommend it to anyone with a taste for wuxia, comedy, and feilunhai~
for me, it was a total KO.
