Great Comic Book Premise, Execution Didn’t Work for Me

I really liked Ma Sihan in Eternal Lovesickness, so I went into this hoping to enjoy it just as much. Unfortunately, it wasn’t my cup of tea. If it hadn’t been such a short watch, I likely would have dropped it around the halfway point.

It started off light and familiar, but I quickly struggled to stay engaged. The pacing felt slow, and I found the overall execution a bit uninspiring. The story and side elements didn’t capture my interest, and I often wished things would move along more quickly. I also had a hard time connecting with the characters and the narrative, and the subtitles unfortunately made the experience more difficult at times.

That said, this hasn’t put me off Ma Sihan—I still look forward to seeing more of his work in the future.
