This series covers so many emotions and shared experiences from just being human. There is a darkness coupled with bright and light themes. Some of it feels raw, gritty and dirty bordering on forbidden. While some of it comes across as sweet, gentle, loving and fragile. All of this is reflected in the at pieces used.

Dew, Gun and Off did such an incredible job delivering their roles and putting exactly right emotion into each scene. It was powerful when needed and it was delicate in the appropriate places. Emi & AJ's characters also fit into the story perfectly. They added extra flavor and allowed the main characters to express so many more feelings without coming across as "extra", superfluous or repetitive.

This series also touched on AI art and how human artists often feel about AI generated art. They also presented the programmer's view regarding AI generated pieces, which was interesting. I was able to see both sides with a little more understanding, though I admit I am still firmly in favor of the live artist's side as it's portrayed here.

In terms of who I would recommend this to -- if you are a big fan of the actors then it's a "must watch" for them. But, I also believe that anyone who enjoys looking a bit deeper into character motivations, people who enjoy art and deciphering what an artist is trying to convey and those who want series where the meaning is much more than how it appears on the surface then this will be the perfect series.
