Turns out...humans can't fart rainbows.
The funniest part about this drama is the disclaimer at the beginning of every episode letting you know that all characters in the show are fictitious and not real. Every time I'm like....wait...so you mean humans can't actually shit rainbow sparkles to beat evil spirits?!? I mean like...so disappointed with humans right now.
This drama was really well written, it's a really solid piece with good acting, decent music, and lots of exciting fight scenes. I like that one of the counters is a granny, and one of them is some eccentric old rich dude (actually a pretty cute little old guy, I liked him a lot). There are some inconsistencies and plot holes, especially around the fight scenes. Like sometimes I don't get how Ha-Na is supposed to be super strong yet she sometimes is a badass and other times she sits a fight out like a weakling with no real explanation...like is she a badass or not? The granny sitting out I get, because she's primarily a healer after all. They actually dropped Ha-Na's storyline for several episodes too, which made no sense because they kept every single other counter's back story going in those episodes. It was also awfully convenient that they brought in a Singapore counter to die so they wouldn't have to kill off any of the main counters....poor dude.
The other thing I can't figure out is how the lead character, the high school kid, manages to pretty consistently keep one eye twice as big as the other eye with this sort of constant either shocked or hurt or hurt and shocked expression...it's basically like o.O constantly. Little dude cries at the drop of a hat too, he's definitely great at portraying an emotional teenager. I'm 90% convinced he's actually an anime character drawn into the show. The people from Yun are a little strange as well, I really liked all of them and thought they did a good job...except Wi-Gen...I dunno if I'm supposed to like her, she seems like a total dick though. Even her sort of redemption arc it doesn't seem like she's ever going to have the same chemistry with her counter that the other spirits do.
All my complaints up there are pretty minor though, the show itself manages to be really entertaining and it's a fun sort of family super hero show. The heroes are great, the villains are great, the settings are perfectly suited to the action scenes, and the rainbow sparkles are pretty. Overall I think it was really well done and I hope there's actually a 2nd season, since it's Netflix.
