Description

Earth is under constant threat from Neighbors, invincible monsters from another dimension that destroy our way of life. At least we have the elite warriors of Border, who co-opt alien technology to fight back! Our hero Osamu Mikumo may not be the best agent, but he'll do whatever it takes to defend life on Earth as we know it. When Osamu meets a feisty humanoid Neighbor named Yuma, everything that he thinks is right is turned on its head. Can the two natural enemies ever become friends?

    "Trigger" doesn't quite hit the mark. This series feels like a string of encapsulated morality tales, espousing the dangers of unfettered access, to firearms. Any pro gun control advocate, will, I'm sure, applaud it. Others might point out that Switzerland has high levels of gun ownership but low levels, of gun related crime. In any case, when viewed through the lens of entertainment, this series quickly becomes repetitive and tiresome. It's like an elaborate, drawn out version of one of those crude, cautionary safety video's, they torment kids with, at school. "Don't play with matches, "Guns are dangerous", you get the idea. Acting, as is so often the case with South Korean drama's, is well above average. There are interesting characterisations on offer too but they are constrained, by the limitations in the script. In summary, a little too repetitive, simplistic and preachy for my liking. A broader story, with a subtler message included about gun control, might have worked better. A mediocre watch.
