Yeah, I agree it was a good way to kick off the first episode. Fight scenes are on point, loved how they showed how Sonny can put in work with the hands at first then switched up to the dual blades in the 2nd scene :obama:. If I'm not mistaken, I saw someone busting nunchucks in a future episode :whoo:.

I knew the fight scenes would be on point because of the people they have involved, peep the 1st couple pgs of this thread for those fight training videos.

I didn't know that MK would have some kind of demonic powers :ohhh:. It seems like him and Sonny could have come from Astra (sp) which seemed like a more developed city than the plantation setup they going now. Hopefully if the show does well, they will renew it for more than 6 episodes next season. At least the budget for each episode should be high this year.

Good to see Astrid from The Tomorrow People show up as Sonny's girl.

Just watched this.

Story seems ok so far, the action/choreography was pretty good. Not exactly Raid-level like some of the reactions were leading to me believe, but good especially for a television show.

I will be sticking with it. Refreshing to see another Asian lead show on tv.
