Mixed Feelings
While there are some decent upsides to this miniseries, it's ultimately brought down by core issues.

First, the positive. The art in the show is very beautiful! While it's all winter-themed, I never got tired of looking at the snowy mountains and landscapes, nor the bright lights of civilization contrasting with the cold, stormy night. The music is also a treat to listen to! Both the soulful, melancholy tunes and the jovial European-inspired ones are quite enchanting to the ears! The world itself is quite unique and interesting as well. It had a lot of potential that was, unfortunately, not quite met.

The story and writing itself is sadly the weak point of this work. There were engaging concepts that could've been explored, but never came to be. The pacing is also a mess. Everything happens so fast, to the point where things like character development feel sudden and unconvincing. Motivations and actions are either sloppily explained, or not given any reason whatsoever.

There is some enjoyment to be had here, mostly in the visual and auditory senses. But if you're hoping to be wowed by a charming, well-written tale, I'd suggest looking elsewhere.
