I was really hyped about this show, when I first read the synopsis I thought hey it's like a Chinese version of Buffy! Wu xin the monster killer I thought that in each episode he will investigate and fight with various demons/ghosts etc, I really wished to see the creators pulling out famous legends and monsters from Chinese mythology and folklore. Instead what I got was the most boring show EVER! The first 4 episodes were like what I expected, we have Wu xin, the girl she likes and a side kick sort of man, they investigate various cases like the one in the bathhouse which was probably closest to the episode I wanted to see all along.

But immediately after that we only have one main enemy, a girl who looks like 13 has a voice of a 4 year old, and the most annoying character I've ever seen in television. Everything from her looks to her voice to her intensely annoying laugh irked me, I could barely watch her scenes. They built up a good background story for her, something that made me like her a bit and feel for her, but no, after few episodes it turned out it's a lie and she ended up being a simple monster who is way to overpowered without reason (like wtf are those stupid paper dolls?). Boring as hell.

From mid show I could only watch it by skipping huge chunks of scenes, it was that hellish, boring. I am so angry I wasted my time for such a piece of shit! Not to mention Wu Xin, like wtf was that when he turned into a worm and a hairy child? I love Asian humour in TV shows, but this had nothing, you can clearly see that they try, all their humourous scenes are sooo forced and not funny at all.

I don't get why this is rated so high, the only thing I can give credit to this show is because the cinematography is great, the fight scene, CGI and animations looks pretty decent, but overall this is an unwatchable ,not funny, horrible boring nonsense of a creation that made me not care about any of their characters or the story.
