Phantom School Episode 1 Reactions
Universe/World: I like the concept. If this was a novel, it could span 10 YA (Young Adult) novels easily. The adventure in this universe/world can be limitless, and the world can be fleshed out properly.
Speaking of fleshing out, episode 1 lacks a lot of that. It was as if this series is a sequel, or not standalone. That it expected the audience to already have knowledge of it.
But again, it's premier week. Still, for a show with only 8 episodes, they should be setting the universe early.
Acting: 5 out of 10 as of episode 1. The first episode gave me the feels that the talents are newbies. And I think they most of them are, at least after checking some of their past works listed here in MDL.
Directing/scenes: 6.5 out of 10. Needs more work. It seems like the show is being directed by a high school. They know what they want, but they are failing to capture the scene they have in mind.
Some weirdness in script: In the gym fight, the guy who went to the rescue of the FL acted as if he knows the real identity of the FL and have an idea on what's happening.
1. He was immediately on the offensive against the possessed student. No questions asked, just like that, he's flying for a punch.
2. When the FL summoned her weapon, and called his attention, he did not question why she's holding a weapon, and what she's about to do.
No ordinary student would act that way unless they too are a Phantom Hunter, or have knowledge of them.
If he is just an ordinary guy…
3. He never acted worried at all that the FL is “going to kill” their classmate, over for what? Defeating the bully?
Their classmate never did anything, as far as the gym scene is concerned, that would warrant getting stabbed by a spear. Yet, he just let the FL do it, no questions asked.
So, let's hope he is not an ordinary guy, and he does know something about what's going on. (After all, he did see the 7 orbs flying.)
