![]() ![]() ![]() Basically a lot is not explained as we move to new countries and places constantly. Also the Blood witches are not that well defined. The school part that I found very compelling could have been more developed, so are the villain motivations or just why the leaders of the Fairborne exist within the real world. It's silly how Jessica doesn't use her key power more often for example. This comes with some issues: a lot of plot holes, an obsession with changing locations for the sake of it, spells rules invented when needed and a big gap between characters abilities. They changed the plot so much it makes senses they even changed the title. But I would say "inspired" as it took me a couple of episodes to realize I had actually read the book a few years back but didn't recognized the story at all. ![]() What really surprised me is that this is based on a book. But the show includes some decent cgi and good special effects when needed. They also use a lot of smoke for budgetary reason I fear. They possess X-men mutants-like powers and use them most of the time but they also have guns to make it easier. The main characters are teens because who cares what adults witches are doing these days? Certainly not saving the world. We encounter a world divided between witches and non-witches like in Harry Potter but the racism allegory is actually inside the witches world itself divided in two as well. ![]() This show is very gripping, a fun combination of many things we love but I don't blame it. ![]()
