A feel good(?maybe) end of the world story where we are saved by high school seniors.
I enjoyed it, the end of the world mechanics were good, the no holds bared anyone can die storytelling kept me engaged the whole time.
I would recommend for people who like the doomsday themed series.
How did you enjoy it?
Early Episode One spoiler discussion
When they opened the series and said soldiers up to age 24, and high school seniors were being called into active duty… I was intrigued, thought there was some age based reason only young people could effectively fight the Spheres. Like maybe the brain patterns of older adults were too suspectable to mind control, or something.
But no… just… Need boots on the ground, so instead of using the military 24-40 and reservists 24-40… we will activate the highshoolers first…
I realize this was all plot convenience to get a high school drama in a sci-fi war, but come on…
