The storyline was middling good up until the last 5-7 episodes, when it went a little over the top The premise was hackneyed, but creative writing and some good acting saved it. I was impressed by the lead actor's ability to portray growth and change over time. Sad to say lead female was a visual and emotional caricature -- another who thinks everything that happens is because of her - whether it's because of her actions, thoughts, wishes or presence, it will OF COURSE be rectified by her doing something usually self-sacrificing with a good deal of moping involved. I don't think it was the actress's fault in this case - I'm going to point a finger at the script and director.
I think the secondary actors were almost all quite human, excluding, in particular, the sister who resorted to shouting and stomping in and out of rooms instead of acting. The two sinister actors were done well also.
Unfortunately the music was downright doofy, however, there were useful clues in the cartooning during the introduction. Overall, I would say it's watchable, even bingeworthy during the first 2/3, and a bit of a slog for the last bit, The ending does seem to wrap up loose ends neatly.
