So a Mad Max style original net animation from director Sunghoo Park… that’s a tricky thing to pull off, especially when the release schedule is to release the first eight episodes at once and then the last four episodes a month later. This series certainly tackles issues that you’d expect a post apocalyptic dictatorship civilization to tackle such as dissatisfaction with society, rebellion and the realization that you can’t change a society that at large fundamentally doesn’t want to change because it’s all they’ve ever known. This series doesn’t have compelling enough characters to be able tackle such topics because it mainly falls down toeveryone being annoying, both heroes and villains alike. Perhaps that’s why they released multiple episodes at once, to get it out of the way faster. And perhaps that we should start accepting that Sunghoo Park is never going to recapture the magic that made his work on God of High School and Jujutsu Kaisen so visually compelling and stunning.
