RATING: 8/10

Sony’s animation division doesn’t get the credit it deserves. They consistently deliver cute, quirky stories with a visual style that brings both charm and innovation, and this movie is no exception. I stumbled upon it on Netflix’s homepage and decided to give it a shot, and I was genuinely surprised by how much I enjoyed it.

What stood out most to me was the animation. It’s a beautiful blend of the Spider-Verse style with manga sensibilities, making it feel like an anime reimagined through a different lens. The voice acting is strong, the K-pop soundtrack is catchy and perfectly fits the film’s aesthetic, and the action scenes are bursting with style. The romance is sweet, the demon lore is engaging, and everything comes together to form a cohesive and vibrant experience.

While the plot is simple, the story has heart—and it balances great music, culture, and romance in a way that feels effortless. It could’ve worked as a series, but the concise runtime and solid pacing make it a great standalone film. This one will definitely resonate with a younger audience, but there's something here for everyone to enjoy.
