Have to say, this addition to netflix was very unexpected surprise. Instead of so many shows which Netflix produce and total screw up, this one series is having great storytelling; amazing introduction to old china without crazy american or evropean changes aimed to please stupid teenage audiance.
What is a great pity is that only subtitless are available and in some places (many) at least I had to slow down playback or rewind to catch what is actually said, as conversations are very fast and subtitless require quite a speed reading if you like also to see what is happening at screen.
To series: It is not for sure a low budget production.
It has amazing story with great twists and lot of mindblowing thoughts / points how to investigate same mystery.
So far I finished 5 parts, which cover the main starting mystery and each of one hour long part I was binded to screen, amazed by new information and twists in storyline.
It is very rare I am giving something like 9/10 or 10/10 stars, but this show for sure at least the part I saw is worth it.
Overal 9/10 is only to cover my lazyness which is reading so much subtitless in so short time and rewind some parts to catch up with all things.
THIS IS what Netflix should focus on - quality not quantity.
Just before this I saw garbage like House of Ninjas; and this show make me again believer in good storytelling, production values and focus on inteligent series instead of teenage half brain idiots which understand only farts jokes and dumed down content.
