Unwanted Chitchats, Poor Reasoning: Not Recommended for Logic-Sensitive Viewers!

Stupidity at its peak. The main leads engage in chitchat or look at each other when the enemy is nearby, resulting in the enemy conveniently escaping or taking hostages. Despite having 10 years of experience, the main leads, who are wounded in a scene, casually move towards the enemy or engage in casual chitchats. I don't know how I watched the first season; I'm not sure if it was this stupid. Basically, all these grown men with enough combat experience just engage in chitchat or have badass moments or dialogues when in combat.

I'm currently on the 4th episode, and despite the leads being frustratingly foolish and dragging the show down with their mistakes, I plan to finish it since I've already started.

Also, it's kind of weird to have only 5 or 6 demon hunters per country. By the way, it's not the biggest issue; the above chitchats were way more annoying and stupid than this. In a somewhat similar show called 'Tomorrow', they had a large organization with many employees. However, in Uncanny Counter, there are only a few demon hunters for each country, which seems really weird and stupid. I think this would be better suited for new viewers or for kids, or for someone who doesn't think too much and can ignore these issues while watching.

I wouldn't recommend this to anyone sensitive to logic and reasoning, specifically regarding the leads' thinking capacity. I'm not referring to the logic behind the fantasy, but rather the main leads' IQ and their ability to understand when to engage in chitchats and when not to. If you enjoyed Season 1 and want to watch this, I suggest checking out a recap or the story of Season 2 instead. It might be better than wasting time on this series unless you have no other shows to watch.

(Note: The graphics were good, though.)

Update:
It was unwatchable i completed this series by fast forwarding. So, final verdict not recommended.
