Adding new to classics

I watched the new Netflix show produced by SONY Pictures Animation called “KPop Demon Hunters”. I am not in their target audience, also if I love the animation on 2s (a new pose each 2 photograms, instead than 1) launched by “Spider-Man: Into the Spider-verse” and I recognize the rest of visuals. Not surprising, but well made.

What I liked was the lore, also if I am too adult (not old :P) to understand the nuances of K-pop. I like its silliness and the irreverence of the protagonists, reminds me a lot of what I notice in teenagers: struggle to have followers, always be perfect, but also lots of stress and anxiety because of the dark present and no light on the long term.

I love the mixture between classic mythology with modern K-pop, also if I felt something missing on the demon side. Still, a great show to watch. I also liked that the characters (at least the female ones) are not too hypersexualized. I would like to say the same for the boys, but that’s not the case 😛

And, maybe it’s for the 3d, probably for the combat too, I think that from that proof of concept new lores may spark more fresh, for the action adventure games of the future! Recommended.
