My Undead Yokai Girlfriend

It's an okay series, but there are plenty of better series with supernatural elements, if that's your cup of tea. The characters here just feel terribly dumb, and both the pacing and storytelling are a bit off somehow. The visual effects aren't anything to write home about either.

They obviously try very hard to be funny, but the humour doesn't really work that well, unfortunately. Maybe for teenagers? Or perhaps things get lost in translation for a European like me who doesn't speak Japanese? This style is just so much better made in Korea, can't help it.

P. S: If you want to see a good series with Youkais, try Tale of Nine Tales, it's quite romantic though.

Creatively directed and powerfully presented by all the actors. One of the most engaging and involving japanese short dramas I have watched till date. Never got bored while watching the series, the story flows effortlessly smooth. The quality of acting displayed, especially by the two leads is just brilliant. Not for a single minute you will feel that they were acting, it is uniquely authentic. The best aspect about this series is that you can watch it from start to end in a matter of few hours. If you are looking for something new & fresh, you will surely love it. From well choreographed action scenes to hilariously funny comedy, and from sweet love story to tragic plot twists, this series has it all. Eagerly waiting for season 2.

A quite new series of films. It not only captures the traditional beauty of Japan but also blends reality with mythology in a harmonious way. The actors have given their all in their roles.

Most Japanese films have unpredictable plot twists, creating one surprise after another. While watching, I went from one mood to another. Sometimes it's really funny, but it also contains many incredibly touching moments.

Thus, I was impressed by the lead actress, Ai Yoshikawa. I really admire her and all the dramas she has starred in are excellent. Amazon has invested heavily in visual effects, and I'm really looking forward to the second season of this series too.

Really looking forward to the sequel, I hope there are no murders or people dying in vain, and more slice of life moments that are funny and entertaining.

I like Izzy's innocent and very cute appearance when facing contemporary Japanese life.

Who knows who the bad guy is actually doesn't really matter, because the attraction of this series is the romantic relationships. The many interests and points of view make it feel complicated and difficult to determine whose side the audience should side with.

Some unimportant characters somehow have to be sacrificed and die without making significant story developments. I'd rather have them stay alive and experience character development. For example, a character with the ability to change shape. It appeared very quickly, and then suddenly it had to end.

I'm really looking forward to the continuation of the story and hopefully Izzy and Tadashi can often have their happy moments.

The female lead did a great job. The male lead was unwatchable and definitely horribly cast. This had a real chance of being good. If it wasn't for him. It could have been the writing of his character and not him, but that's hard to know. I definitely would not recommend this. It's really not worth watching at all because of how bad he is. There's some other plots that aren't very good but he destroys the whole thing. I wish they would have hired somebody else so we could see how good it would have been so far. They're looking like there's a season two, but as far as I know there's not. Since Amazon did this I should have known it wasn't worth watching. If you start this I would suggest not finishing it.
