Whoever wrote, directed, produced this could not have been real fans of the manga or anime. This is sooooo far off it's ridiculous. The characters are weak and immature. The Tang San, Xiao Wu relationship is way overexaggerated, it's annoying. I looked so forward to this because I am a huge fan of Soul Land, but this is a huge letdown for me and I assume any other fan of the franchise. If there is a Season 2, I hope they read comments from the REAL FANS and take some pointers to balance out the show. It's like they took all of their weaknesses and hyped it up for this production.
