You Can't Watch Just One...

s-CRY-ed is one of those series that you're just not quite sure what to think of in the beginning. You are thrown into the middle of a world where you have no idea what's going on--and despite your instincts, you're really not sure who the bad guys and good guys are! For a long time, I only had the first 5 episodes available to me, but upon getting my hands on the entire series, I found that I couldn't quit watching. The story is intriguing, and the writers did it just right so that as one episode ends, you absolutely must watch the next episode to know what happens next, or to get that new twist in the plot.

If you like action and a thick story mixed with it, s-CRY-ed is definitely worth a look-see. It is one that will leave you on the edge of your seat, eagerly awaiting each episode. It also sticks to the story--there aren't any filler episodes that aren't attached directly to the storyline. Watch out, though--you could find that characters you like and dislike constantly switch places. That's what makes it so fun to watch. Check it out!
