This series can only leave me asking...why?

Story:

Sadly, I have to say this series had a good story ...at first. I like how the story takes place in France, which is different from many series' setting. Unfortunately, it seems this series sacrificed it's creativity for its unique storyline. The first episode had a rather nice flow to it, but after that it began to slow down.

The flow was so bad, I considered stopping the series after the third episode. Giving it a chance though, it didn't even pick up until about the 19th episode! What kept me watching was simply the oddness of where the story was going. Without giving away too many details, there were just things that didn't make sense.

Characters:

The characters are one of the things that will confuse any viewer! Not only are the men shallow and unrealistic, they also contradict themselves through the whole story! The main character seems to have a total break with reality as the story progresses, due to his sister possessing him more and more. His sister who supposedly wants vengeance against her killer, only kills everyone she comes in contact with! To top it off, the bad characters are made to be almost sympathetic...while the good characters are almost...evil!

Art & Sound:

The art and sound kept me actually watching this series at times. Set in historic France, the series captures some fantastic artwork. The viewer begins to feel lost in France, unfortunately having to follow the character's story. Little details clearly meant something in this series, as the sound is great as well. I really can't complain with the art and sound.


Enjoyment Overall:

I'd say unless you skip to the last few episodes this series isn't really worth watching. The only reason I'd ever ask someone to watch this, is if it was a time killer. The characters are awful, the storyline destroyed by the flow, and the art barely holds this series together. For not having known much about this series, it held a little value. Parts of this series seemed so predictable, all I could do is laugh.
