So much they could do, but...

Don’t misread my somewhat low rating: I actually loved the plot behind this story and the hints of psychological issues involved in all of it. I also loved the idea of talking about how people see their own worlds and how can they put up with others’ worlds. The topics of obsession, applied to a love relationship but also in life...

So, precisely because I think the idea was great, I’m so disappointed with... well, everything else! :/

Due to the shortness of the drama, the plot wasn’t really well developed and many things felt like “what?!? why?!?” for me. Many questions were left with no answers at the end so I just thought: “why come up with this element in the story if you just don’t have time for it?”.
The characters felt like sketches, not developed enough and way too rush in changing ideas and course of action: somehow I appreciated the Mono who shows a nice acting and natural body gestures, but the Probe was too stiff for this role... that’s a pity.

The “i take off the mask” scenes were a bit too many and felt repetitive... I wasn’t annoyed by the rainbows effects (I’ve seen enough trashy things on dramas to NOT get scared by that color-rush effect XD) but the music kinda hurt my nerves. o.O

I mean, this could have been such a cool project with many interesting twists but it felt a bit disconnected. I would love to see a Taiwanese or Japanese reboot of the story sooner or later!
