(Post contains some visual spoilers for the finale episode (and NSFW). Take a peek if you are trying to decide if this series is for you. The first half is non spoilery - just reasons why I think it's amazing. I've tried to make a good case for it...;D)

Ah yes Varro! And I loved Illithya also. It took me a while to warm to her but I thought the actress found her feet with the character the more she developed.
I know a lot of green screen was used - I think the style allowed them to get away with it being unrealistic at times. So not a big budget? They did an amazing job of making it look like they did - I suppose the epic nature of the story telling and the special effects made it feel bigger than it actually was.
LOVE indeed!

It is very violent though. There's usually plenty of warning (arena scenes etc) , but they dont shy away from showing the full thing. There's also a heap of blood. I had to turn a way a few times, but mostly I was ok with it. It won't be for everyone that's for sure.
