I feel like people are missing out on this series so I decided to write a review to give this 2016 piece of art some attention.
NOTE: It's hard to find every episode of the series. Even while browsing the chinese web I couldn't find the rest of the epsisode from ep 24 onwards. I've completed the series up to the existing episodes.
We are not human is a low-budget, short comedy web series. Every episode is around 2 to 5 minutes long. Very super lighthearted and cute. Set in the world of the supernatural with character like a snarky vampire with OCD, a naive zombie that communicates with taoist talismans, an otaku ghost, an enthusiastic sales woman and many more strange characters with their own quirks. It's strange, and most people's first reaction would be "what did I just watch"... but you'll get hooked anyways (unless you get uncomfortable easily).
General production: This series gives off a "bunch of bored university film students came together to do some short series as a joke" kind of vibe... and I'm living for it. It's part of the charm... you can tell how low budget it is, but it's great nonetheless. (Like they used memes are part of their episodes. They legit screen recorded some memes and shoved that footage in... they stopped caring since they started filming lmao)
Story: This short series almost managed to pack in more story than 50 episode long dragged out dramas can. Every character has their own backstory and mystery, and we (really quite quickly.. like cmon, every episode is less than 5 minutes) get to unravel their stories. Although it lacks detail, you're satisfied with what you know.
Acting: Over the top and purposefully done crudely is what I would describe it. It is a comedy series after all.
Cast: These actors managed to get through their scenes and are willing to play such... unnatural characters. Great cast ngl.
Music: I don't remember it. No focus on it.
Rewatch value: I'll 100% rewatch this series as a "oh no some other drama just gave me major depression" type of coping mechanism. Other than that though I feel this is more of a one-shot watch type of series.
Overall: If you like comedy mixed in with a bit of absurdness, this series is bound to intrigue you. This should not be on your drama priority list, but give it a try of you're bored or got nothing else to watch <3
(Episodes can be found on youtube. A kind person translated the series a couple years ago! (Though it isn't complete))
