What was that ending!!! I need Season 2 ASAP!!
An absolute delight to watch. It hit all the right notes of comedy, drama, suspense, thriller, and romance.
Story:
Above all, this show is a comedy, and shouldn't be taken too seriously. XXA is a simple guy in the beginning of the story, who slowly turns into a leader and great warrior. I love that initially, it is clear that while he is a good fighter, he is not the best by a mile, and gets beaten up a lot. But over time, his skill improves, and his character is usually what sets him apart from the rest.
The story doesn't shy away from drama either, or rather, trauma, and I love how they explored those arcs and how they impacted each character.
Characters:
Each character is important and has their own arc. While there are a lot of characters so some are just written off only to reappear ten episodes later, their arcs are still explained and explored.
Acting:
Amazing. DW's best show to date and the rest of the cast did an amazing job. Every character was played with so much depth and emotion. No one was stiff, everyone felt natural and it is clear they all had amazing chemistry with each other. It is just so apparent that this was a cast that got along and truly enjoyed the project because they put so much effort and care in their characters.
Production:
The cinematography was great, the sets were beautiful, the costumes were stunning, the CGI was very good. Everything brought together made this a perfect watch.
Overall:
I plan on reading the novel now because I'm dying for season 2 so I hope that the novel went beyond the show. 🫶
