I genuinely don't understand how this has a Community Rating of 4 out of 5 stars. It's a promotional one shot. It's a piece of advertisement. And not even, like, an impressive or clever advertisement like a Super Bowl commercial or anything like that. It's just a bland introduction to the setting, purposefully devoid of any meaningful plot. You can't even get a feel for the characters' personalities because it's so short. Yes, some of the individual images are beautiful, but even the artwork feels like it could've been made to flow together a lot better. And hypothetically, even if this one shot was my first incursion into this story (and had inspired me to read the manhwa series or the novel), does that mean it would be worthy of a high rating? No, not really--the series itself is what's worthy of the rating, not the ad.
