I found the show basicly underwelming. The premise sounded so cool, but the execution was just too poor for me to have any real emotion for it. The two things that realy annoyed me were
1. No blood. I don't mean to sound petty but a show where over a hundred people die, and that is about assassins needs to have some blood period. i know why it didnt but regardless It should have had some. People get shot and their arent even bullet holes. If im not mistaken a woman gets shot in the face and when we see her next she doesnt even have a scratch on her. Though i might have had that wrong(its been quite some time since i saw the show) I think you know what im getting at
2.The story line revels in its convulutedness. Filler after filler after filler episodes made me forget what exactly was going on sometimes. The story was weak, it wouldnt have been that bad under normal circumstances, but I was expecting it to carry the show since the action sceens left me unsatisfied in their dryness, and in the end the story was simply not enough to overcome that.
2.5 This also irked me. why is the japanese girl assassin(Kirika I think) an inhuman killing machine while her corsican partner is basicly a chick with a gun that shoots some people. Their power levels were just too disproportioned for my taste.
I have to admit i loved the music of the show particularly the score that played when killing was about to take place.
