I'll think about the Copenhagen Test again. The trailer is stylish, but not exciting.
Not my week. I'm waiting for the next one, when the anime one breaks through
Espionage cyberpunk, hehe. Maybe it will come sometime, especially since they promised to release all 8 episodes at once.
At the same time, this is the rarest case of a series premiere on a Saturday. This usually does not happen at all.
I recently had the only such Saturday project - Scammers in Korean, or rather the series was released on Saturdays and Sundays. Even then, the plot wasn't interesting everywhere, and the translation had to wait a day later.
