Sadly, the show wasn't longer.
What I enjoyed most was the acting, and then novel effects. An example of a novel effect: a gloomy cave full of skulls, the camera scanning halts at a skull and its jaw bone drops off... meh, not that funny now, maybe, but there's many small effects like that - almost unnoticed, which, for me, added more interest / novelty.
Although equally enjoyable were story, sets, and CG. The story is obviously about overcoming evil... it's not that difficult to understand. The badies were bad and the goodies were good, but also imperfect, lol.
The actors, for me, were convincing in their passionate displays of sorrows joys and jealousies, ouch! By the side: a guy in the hero group - I don't even recall if he even had a line - had heavy brows and staring eyes, just wild, so novel. The rest of the hero group were mainly weird looking, out-of-this-world people. That added more novelty - quirkiness, which I enjoy.
Excellent sci-fi fantasy - and I suspect, lots of Chinese mythology thrown in. Don't miss it!
