Is it worth it

Four demon hunters run a noodle shop as a front, and the found family is the entire appeal. An 8.8 from 80,372 ratings is a warmth score rather than a craft score: the fights are cheap, the show announces rules and then breaks them without cost, and the villains are written broadly enough to be furniture. It is at its best in the first six episodes, when the job is small and the team is being assembled, and it changes shape around episode twelve into something flatter and more procedural. Cho Byeong Kyu and Yoo Jun Sang hold it together and the comfort is real, so go in for the company and not the plot.

A group of supernatural demon hunters known as "Counters," each with unique abilities, disguise themselves as employees of a noodle restaurant, while tracking down evil spirits that terrorize the mortal world.
