    Two episodes in

    Loving the retro yet futuristic esthetic of the visuals and set design! A bit early to speak from an overall perspective since just two episodes have been released thus far, but it feels very promising!

    Rashida is a great casting for Suzie and the overall mystery of the series feels very eery and intriguing.

    I also like the buddy cop dynamic growing between Suzie and Sunny.

    Apple TV keeps delivering!

    The show started wel, but...

    The show started well, the future, new interesting technologies, Japanese culture, mystery and thriller... but at one point the concept changes. The story is supposed to be told from the eyes of Suzie and Mixxy as the main actors, but the story expands and spends a lot of time on background stories of other characters where it slowly starts to lose fun like at the start... but omg the ninth episode, is for children... little children... It's a shame a good idea was ruined, how it started could have been something special, this way it will be forgotten very quickly, and actors will have a harder time getting better roles because of a childish show.

    P.s. The robot should have a dark mode on face/screen, how could Suzie sleep next to him when he is shining like cinema...

    Refreshing

    I'm only through 5 episodes but am pleasantly surprised. I tuned in because of Rashida Jones but have stayed for its delicate moments. For a sci-fi thriller this show takes a softer hand and is more creative than I expected. The plot is nicely decorated with philosophy and culture, of which none is overtly stated. The plot develops nicely and preserves its mysteries but it's the scenes in between that are memorable. My favorite so far comes at 23 minutes into Ep 5 and prompted me to write this review. No spoilers from me so if you can handle its loose grip then you may be as pleasantly rewarded as I've been for staying tuned.

    Som much potential, but it just got weird

    I thought the first 3 episodes were great, lots of mystique, interesting plot line and a broad spectre of characters. It was attention grabbing. But at some point it just took a turn in to a surreal japanese game show-esq story with no clear plot. It tries to explore moral questions but it quickly becomes flat and uninteresting. It fails to keep your attention, and although it has an interesting problem : can a robot (AI) have free will, an intriguing and relevant philosophical question, it fails to connect on an intelectual level. At a point I just stop caring about the protagonists or the problem in hand. Loads of potential but it just seems like the writers had no idea how to explore the plot in an interesting way. It's as if the Matrix turned in to a Disney cartoon midway...

    Not your average mystery

    Ok, seen a lot of negative reviews which I don't get. I like this show, it works for me and I look forward to the next week's episode. It's not predictable, doesn't follow the usual recipe and explores a stranger in a strange land with unfamiliar customs, at least where a loved one is lost in mysterious circumstances as an American wife coming to grips not knowing her Japanese husband's secret work life. And yakuza thrown in to make it interesting.

    It has a fair bit of quirkiness, which I like. Yes a lot of it is in Japanese, but it's got subs, so that's okay. I'm giving 7 for now, maybe give it more at the end of the season.
