I'm torn between 2,5 or 3 stars. Too many plot holes and unexplained, unnecessary things. There was zero communication between the characters which made them make so many stupid mistakes, it was unnerving. Just talk to each other, damn it! I didn't like most of the characters although I didn't disli...

2.5I'm on the fence with this one. It seemed like there was almost too much drama going on. There was a kidnapping, a murdered family, a Pokemon themed gang (wth?), and victims of violence stories. It was a little much. I guess it was okay, though.
