I loved the serie because gives positive messages without being hold by any mold. What I would change would be some scenes that without them this show would be for anyone to watch; frankly, I found them unnecessary for the story.

Beyond that, is one of my faves, because they give the message of being true to yourself, to listen to yourself and follow your own path, knowing it won't be easy but it will be yours.

Perfect wardrobe, great scenes, good music choice and nice script. Life of fenomens doesn't look like easy. For me it is different and really worth watching show.

I'm ranking this 10 because of all the negative things people have said about this. It's visually stunning, the music used is amazing and the English Dub on Netflix is actually really well done if you can't be bothered with subtitles

You feel for all the characters, though the first episode was my favourite. They all develop in a way that keeps you wanting to see what happens next.

It's not trying to be a ground breaking, morally driven tv show, it depicts Instagram fame pretty accurately in Japanese culture.

I'd recommend this show to anyone who isn't taking it too seriously.

Light story, good vibes with its quirkness, I watch until the end of episodes and like it. The costums, desain, light are really inspiring. It is another level of Japanese cinematography. I think another Japan drama should wear this color more with different genre. For me, it reminds me when I watched Why woman kill directed by Lucy Liu, but with different characteristics of cast.

It's difficult to write a review about something you passionately wanted to be great, but just isn't.

Moreover, living in Tokyo and working in the entertainment industry means that I was well aware of the rumors of an absentee director leaving the bulk of the shoot to her staff. Stories of technical problems and entire episode worth of content left on the cutting room floor also make it difficult to write an unbiased review.

Putting that aside, characters who are inconsistent and difficult to root for are what truly made me dislike this series.

I had very high hopes for "Followers" as Japanese serialized entertainment deserves to have a place in the on demand era. As the above reviewer mentioned, this is, for better or worse, just another example of the current generation of Japanese entertainment. Slightly tone deaf, completely unrealistic, and a bit painful to watch.

If the rumors about this production are true, this director would do well next time to do the work herself instead of just color grading and picking pretty clothing for her clearly confused cast to wear.

5 points for a cast that is clearly trying to entertain us.

Here's hoping they restore that extra episode worth of footage down the line.
