Captivating

One episode in and I already knew I was going to love it. The main character is exactly my favorite kind of hero — the one that doesn't ask for it but has leadership thrust upon them after being thrown headfirst into an insane situation.

The drama started out a little episodic at first but I had no problem with it because it was great seeing different potentials and the pros and cons of them. Hints of the backstory and overarching plot were also inserted really well and I really liked how things came together at the end.

With that being said, however, I feel like the ending leaves a lot to be desired. I liked learning about different potentials in the earlier episodes but I don't think they ever became very significant in the overarching plot and it really felt like the drama ended right when it was about to hit its actual climax, after some of the plot twists were revealed. The build-up didn't necessarily pay off even though I feel like some of the social messages already came through, and the cliffhanger at the end really left me craving more.

I always say I'm not a fan of ensemble dramas but if this one counts it's definitely an exception. I love every single one of the characters in the group (especially Wave) and they'll be one of my favorite cast of characters forever.
