I'd like to begin by saying that I don't think Persona was my genre; if not by the fact that IU was in it, I would most likely never pay attention to it. Maybe I'd watch the 2nd and 4th episode, but that would be about it.

This was a quite odd and bold mini series, where each episode worked as a standalone production (each was produced by different people too). A big chunk of Persona was up to personal interpretation, therefore we were given often very unfolded, open storylines and characters. It was all abut what was shown and heard, what was truly given at the moment. And for that, I have to appreciate the effort. I wasn't used to this though, so it's hard to judge a series like this.

Someone in another website mentioned how the objective of this series was supposedly to depict human emotions, hence why the viewer would feel lost at times within the episodes. I slightly agree. In all honesty, even if I felt weirded out and lost most of the time, I ended this series with the feeling that I wanted more. More variety, more diversity of themes in such a short term. So much can be said about each episode if the audience pays enough attention...
