So far, not the best start.

While monsters coming from humans is nothing new, the way it’s done here kind of misses the main draw of it. Namely, getting to know why the person came to create it. We barely know anything about the FENIX guy who tried and failed to become this show’s protagonist and we know even less about the crook the Deadmans capture. Is he alive? We’ll probably never know.
.

Hiromi was supposed to die there, so kinda understandable we barely get to know him at the first episode. He was supposed to sacrificial for the stakes, I suppose.

Julio and Aguilera are of spanish origin. Ortega, too, but weirdly it is spelled Orteca here. Probably a pun on Orca...? They are called the Deadman because they are based on Day Of The Dead.

She was hit somewhere in the head by the Deadman, and almost eaten by Vice. Being hit on the head would already realistically put her a few weeks in the hospital, it wasn't shown there was injury on the head, but that was the implication of it.
