Not a fan of the general K-Pop scene nor K-Dramas, but I am a fan of Huntrix. I was pleasantly surprised that this wasn't a fluff piece.
Only Arden Cho's main character had a full arc, but that's what the animated movie needed to make it work without bloating too much. And I would welcome a sequel with more focus on the other two characters of Huntrix.
The story was engaging and fun, even though predictable; but it worked for the medium and that's all that mattered.
The songs were also very catchy and I wouldn't mind to get a full-length, proper version of "Soda Pop", too, with all the other songs stronger than the one mentioned.
