Maria Clara at Ibarra

It's a Great Series You can learn a lot from the history of the Philippines Especially the novel of Dr Jose Rizal GMA Did Well at Adapting this series Into A tv show it's worth watching. I like the Costumes The Artists they did well at portraying their characters Especially Sisa. But What I didn't like is how the story ends It's Just lacking Of Something Maybe this show has season 2? I hope so.

This is the beginning of the Great Era of Philippine Entertainment and I hope more Tv shows like this This should be the one that This generation should Watch not those violence tv shows! It's a well series Recommend it to watch.

MCIA is a fantastic show that mainstream Philippine television desperately needs and deserves! The story is based on José Rizal's novel 'Noli Me Tanghere,' a dark and disturbing book about the powerful Catholic church during the Spanish Colonial Era. The plot's execution is effective because of one character: Klay, a 2022 student who time-traveled to the 1880s-but not in reality-inside she's in a book.

They perfectly blended fantasy, drama, comedy, cliche, and new unconventional ideas, so the people who worked on this show deserve all of the credit! The cinematography is impressive, the production design is on point, the costumes are accurate, some VFX scenes could be improved, but they are still good, and the scriptwriters consulted historians.

I haven't seen any "teledrama" made in the Philippines for a long time. I have always thought most series from the Philippines are unnecessarily long, repetitive and boring. I decided to give this title a shot after hearing about it on Social Media, and boy I'm glad I did!

The script is well-written, funny, witty, and relatable. The characters are mostly likable (except for the villains, of course). The costumes and settings look great (especially considering budgetary constraints of a show produced in a developing country). And most importantly, the story is engaging.

It's amazing how this book was written over 100 years ago (where this series is based on) and still reflects the modern struggles of the Filipino.

My only complaint is how the volume changes from loud to quiet in one episode, and how the music is jarringly cut off from one scene to the next (but that may very well be becasue I'm watching the series online, rather than on local TV).

A recommended watch!

I feel like Maria Clara at Ibarra sets the bar high it'll inspire Filipino filmmakers to do well too. I hope this won't be the only Filipino Serye that will capture many's eyes.

I love how all the actors played their characters so well! They were all is such a great casting! The villains will really get to your nerves and the protagonist's personality will really grow on you. The side characters are worth admiring too, you'll notice how they highlight the "Filipina" beauty. It reminds us how beautiful our natural faces are comparing to the standards now, which Klay might represent.

The writing is great, there's barely cringe scenes (only when a dramatic scene is prolonged a little) but I guess it adds to their character. But I don't think their purpose is only for fillers.

I even made an account just to post a review. This is the only series that made me want to learn and delve with the Filipino language. Definitely a must watch for those interested in the Filipino culture and history. Both entertaining and educational.

Just a little concerned with its visual effects and Background system. Especially its background music like when in some scenes it will just cut off midway when it jumps to a different scene. Then I became more conscious on it all throughout the series but it will grow on you as well.

Anyway, overall its a pretty interesting and entertaining watch for all audiences. 👍 Kudos to the researchers and production peeps on creating this unique historical drama series!
