Refined dialogue, a likeable main character whose performance certainly goes far, since she plays it really wonderfully. A well thought-out story where everything makes sense and fits together with no plot holes anywhere. Not even a hint of that silly red library. Cuts that are very clever and original. Basically, all of the above is lacking from this series, and at times it's so stupid that even Charmed looks like a work of art next to it. It's great on drugs or alcohol. That I’m sure of.

I did not find the 2013 movie adaptation of Mortal Instruments very impressive, even though I did not find it that offensive either. The basic premise was not so bad, and it was watchable; the actors were pretty good, and the main female protagonist was quite likable. Unfortunately, the anime series retains practically nothing of the movie’s treatment. I do not like the main female protagonist at all, and I find her acting terrible, and I do not find her believable. The rest of her group also strikes me as rather repulsive, and most of the guys are completely slimy and have not a shred of charisma. She affects me in that unpleasant way I had when I watched Twilight, and I have no desire to venture further and see more than the two episodes I have already seen. Plus, there is no point when I do not even find Isabel sexy anymore. The cast is terrible, the atmosphere is lacking, and you can see they are even adapting the narrative in a pretty stupid way. This adaptation is just not any good. 0/10.
