"Danger can sometimes be seductive, it makes my heart pound like crazy, would you agree?"
STORY - 10/10
I loved the horror in this. Even though it didn't really terrify me, I did find it pretty disturbing and definitely thrilling. It's the kind of horror with an amazing aesthetic. Other than that, the mystery is incredibly exciting (especially in the beginning) and really leaves you wishing for a more detailed explanation of how this fictional universe really works. But due to "Enigma" only being 4 episodes long, we don't really get to know more about the specifics. The main character is incredibly brave and smart and thus very enjoyable to watch. Even though the series is this short, they manage to give a quite detailed characterization of the very loveable characters. I especially loved Ajin's two-faced personality. You should definitely watch this show when you're in the mood for a short, fast-paced, binge-watchable Horror/Mystery series.
ACTING/CAST - 10/10
The cinematography is absolutely beautiful in this. Every frame is extremely well thought out. The editing is perfect and quite fast-paced. They considered color theory, and I suspect that they intended a special meaning to the color red. That's really neat, and I would love if someone would do an analysis of this show, as I think that they put a lot of thought into it.
The set design is also gorgeous. I love when rooms feel lived-in by the characters and not just bland IKEA apartments.
I loved the mirror mask and the main symbol of the show. It looks really creepy, but also aesthetic.
The actors also did a great job with portraying their characters.
MUSIC - 9/10
The music is great and did its job of creating suspense and giving me the creeps. Other than that, it didn't particularly stand out to me.
REWATCH VALUE - 10/10
I will definitely rewatch this on Halloween sometime :)
