Where to begin? I'll start with the truth. I did not like it. And that is not because I am a westerner. Nor is it because it's "not my thing." No. I did not like it because the inner monologue, that of an average human, and his avatar's nature, that of an evil supreme being, did not mesh to give a clear perception of the main character's overall nature. There was also an unexplained special effect that kept coming over the main character whenever he became highly emotional, which were "soft feelings" that were contrary to his avatar's assigned nature; that of evil supreme being. This frustrating character defect was exacerbated by the main character's personal feelings toward his inner circle as opposed to his treatment and actions when dealing with the human population. The story also has another point of contention in that it appeared as if the writers did not know for whom this series was written. There are adult themes along the lines of language but it fails to follow through with the appropriate fan service to back up its _adult_ dialogue. And lastly there is a disturbing degree of western Woke-ism to this series; enough to make me definitely keep my rating below five stars o
