Frightening & Intense Scenes

  • The Serpent is a ruthless character who is willing to kill others, and this may scare some younger children. In the last stretch of the series, it is revealed that the reason he acts like this is because he was kidnapped at a young age and separated from his family, where the kidnappers taught him about hate and trained him to become an assassin.
  • The series does end on a cliffhanger, which can be quite emotional as there was a lot of buildup and then the show suddenly ends with many mysteries unsolved.
