My biggest fear before watching this series was that it would be shallow, with nonsensical fight scenes I would get tired of, but joke's on me I got instantly hooked by its depth, the plethora of emotions the actors exceptionally conveyed and the dedication that was put into every aspect of this series.

The storytelling was very strong overall, especially, in the first half of the series in terms of both structure and writing, without that meaning that in the second half was weak. On the contrary, it was strong as well, but the inclusion of certain sub-plots --that didn't necessarily contribute to the development of the characters or the direction of the story-- I would rather to have never gotten introduced to them at all or just see certain storylines, that were teased throughout the series, but were left untouched, to get developed instead. As for the characters, I particularly enjoyed how many of them, aside from the main leads, were fleshed out, making them multidimensional and ultimately more human. That said, some of the female characters, I found, not necessarily bad, but their presence rarely felt essential to the main narrative to me. They were somewhat disconnected from the central storyline.

The music stood out to me the most, not only because every soundtrack choice perfectly complemented each scene and amplified the emotional intensity, but also the sound mixing was masterfully done.

Overall, I definitely recommend this series to anyone looking for a worthwhile story. It's well-executed and engaging throughout.
