It was extremely gripping at the beginning and few episodes in. All the fights and humour was truly great. Unfortunately in typical TV show fashion the action and wonderful play changed into dramatics and love story quite quickly. What I found especially confusing was the shows of superpowers. One episode they just physically fight, the other they can defeat 10 opponents in the same time using only their mind power so... which is it? Seemed like the series couldn't really decide so they went up and down once character was pretty weak to then make it extremely powerful.
And oh my I knew I wouldn't like Gabriella one bit first scene I've seen her. First she stops entire action then she becomes a victim and then narration try to makes her some sort of tougj girl... I don't buy it one bit. Overall I found her very annoying and bland to say the least.
To sum it all up not a bad watch but found myself skipping though few last episodes just out of pure boredom.
