Heroes Reborn - first impressions (yes some spoilers)

[Ryujin]

It's kinda funny because [at least in the first season of the first series], I kinda liked that. It felt like a sort of game: "How are these people from totally different backgrounds related to each other?"

The problem I had was that some of the characters have cooler stories than the others and you sort of want the lame characters to hurry up to get to the cool characters. Reborn of course isn't fixing this situation at all, sadly, but then again I suppose it would be hard to make every character appeal to every watcher.

The original took quite a while to pull the threads of the different characters together and then, just when they hit their stride, they got hit with the writers' strike and everything fell apart.
