If you don’t have any experience with dongua (Chinese anime) then this is a good place to start. I’d recommend you to watch it in Chinese dub instead of Japanese dub and although the first few eps may sound a bit awkward and will make you want to switch to Japanese dub, you’ll get used to it I assure you. The opening (although it’s in English) and the ending (Chinese rap) go hardddd in the original omg, plus their original voice suits them more.

Now about the series itself….it’s a great supernatural detective mystery thriller where one of the ml (white haired one, still can’t remember their names) has the ability to get into photographs to solve cases. Don’t expect any romance at all between anyone and I mean anyone in here….which is great I mean. (If you’re thinking it is shounen ai or yaoi it is NOT). The episodes and the events are connected throughout which is another plus point and keeps you hooked. The story is pretty good and makes you emotional at times. The only con I’d like to point out is don’t expect any backstory at all of anything…how they end up with superpowers, why they’re doing this job etc etc….there’s no explanation of anything whatsoever and you just need to accept various things along the way. This did put me off because as a long time anime watcher as I’m used to heavy back stories and good explanations and all. However, I still rated this so high is because of my overall experience. I mean if you keep the expectations away you’ll enjoy it a lot and that’s why I’m writing this here.

Definitely a must try if you want to explore animes of other countries. I’m glad they’re catching up to the high standards finally as before I had a tough time getting into donghua’s…

Also the season 1 ends in a cliffhanger and very bad cliffhanger so season 2 is going to be insane especially considering how long it is taking to come out. Really excited for next season <3

Btw the opening and endings go hardddd so don’t miss them!
