Super Cube
超能立方 超凡篇
Wang Xiaoxiu has been harboring feelings for his childhood friend, Shen Yao, for as long as he can remember. Now attending the same college, he is shocked to discover that Yao reciprocates his feelings. However, word spreads quickly about the two, and Xiaoxiu finds himself pursued by a delinquent group led by Sun Jun, who wants Yao for himself. While Xiaoxiu fights for his love, he ends up unconscious and falls into a river. As Xiaoxiu wakes up, he is drawn to a strange light at the riverbed. When he makes contact with the object, it merges with his body, pulling him into another dimension. An unfamiliar voice introduces itself as the Horadric Cube and makes Xiaoxiu its new host. Fortunately for him, the cube comes with a pleasant surprise—he gains the power to teleport as well as improving his proficiency in fighting. Xiaoxiu must now collect various gemstones for the cube to absorb in order to gain even more strength to protect himself and the people he cares about from whatever dangers lie ahead.

The story had potential—it’s unique and not entirely predictable. But that’s where the positives end. The execution is poor, and there’s virtually no story build-up. Events just happen without proper pacing or explanation, making it hard to stay engaged. The characters are one-dimensional and lack any real development. There’s no emotional depth, no realistic reactions, and absolutely no growth. They felt more like placeholders than people. The only saving grace is the animation. Visually, it's smooth and polished. The action scenes are well-done and enjoyable to watch, but they can’t carry the entire show on their own. Good animation means nothing if the story and characters fallflat. Overall, it’s a disappointing experience. If you care about story or character development, you’ll likely walk away frustrated. The action is the only reason to check this out, but even that isn’t enough to make up for the weak writing. Ratings: Starting: 8/10 Story: 5/10 Story Build-up: 1/10 Character Build-up: 1/10 Animation: 9/10 Action: 9/10
