Let's appreciate this series more
It seems that this is a series with very short episodes, but I watched a version with all the parts stitched together.
The series is made up of several interconnected stories. The initial premise is that, in a modern-day tavern, the guests consume drinks that give them visions of ancient times. As they are transported to another world through these visions, healing takes place. Soon, however, it becomes unclear which is the real world and which is the world of the dreams or hallucinations. It is possible that both worlds are real, but the characters of the ancient world have reincarnated and finish their unfinished businesses through the tavern. It could also be that the characters resolve their modern-world problems through their access to the ancient world. Ultimately, the friendships forged are real.
My favorite stories are the first and last stories, which feature bromance done really well. The friendship between the two main characters is the thread weaving the different stories, and it is executed beautifully too. I do wish the series were longer although, as it is, it has a satisfying ending.
What we have here is a feel-good series that is also moving and never frivolous. It doesn't go thin on emotional density. Yet, like the guests of the tavern, the audience can leave with a sense of hope. This is a series that deserves more appreciation.
