That was the question that played on in my mind like a broken record. I caved and began my binge journey. I began watching with low expectations, and came out highly entertained. I can say that this show left it's mark in my heart.
I was very impressed with the art style as well as the intricate fighting scenes. I wasn't sure what I was to expect seeing as the main character has a disability since birth. The story was very unique in its own way as well as the character and how he dealt with situations and people his entire life. I especially loved how well put together the story is, well, Bojji's(the main character) story as it entwined with others around him and you could also witness their stories as well.
The other characters were written well enough to set in motion the chain of events to take place for Bojji's journey.
The story wasn't as strong to me, but it was all the characters, including Bojji, that brought light to the story. I loved the fact that Bojji became strong on his own but even stronger with the support of those who loved him dearly. He went to hell and back (literally and figuratively) to become even stronger so he can protect those most precious to him. No matter how much he has been through mentally, physically, and emotionally, he persevered through it all even without knowing about those who silently watched over him. At the end of the day, he's still a little boy who feels sorrow, pain, anger, and joy and watching him overcome it all broke my heart and mended it all at the same time. It was refreshing to watch his character development and how much he grew from episode 1 to episode 23 and presumably more growth to come since his journey is not yet over but only just beginning.
What I loved most about Bojji is that he was so selfless. He care more about the well-being of others than his own and would do anything to protect them. I think people most forget, that even though there are others who might be different from them in certain aspects, they are all still the same human beings. But then you have those humans worse than demons who prey other the good will of others and take advantage of them. What I took mostly from this as a message was that, no matter how you came to be and how you are, you still have room for improvement and growth. Regardless of the flaws and disadvantages, you can still get your butt up, fight back, and be victorious! If Bojji can do it, any one can!! I believe it! :)
The OST was really good as well. Fitting for such a show! I would only half recommend this to certain people. To watch this, you would have to keep an open mind, open heart, and have the patience to witness how great of a boy Prince Bojji is and how through his journey and the people he's met changed his life, while he changed theirs as well.
