YMMV / Hero Mask

Go To

  • Complete Monster:
    • The man with the pseudonym of "Steven Martland" is the head of the LIVE corporation. Experimenting with the Masks on human test subjects with largely fatal results, Martland was also responsible for terrorist acts decades ago, including a bank bombing that killed multiple people, including the wife of police chief Richard. Intending to sell the masks as weapons, Martland has anyone who might expose him eliminated, unleashes the monstrous Grimm on the world and even attempts to have all the cops at a hospital massacred by his assassins, viewing all he does as "just a game".
    • Grimm, real name Jeremy Payne, is a deranged Serial Killer who previously based his killings on Grimms' Fairy Tales. Later arrested by James Blood, he was made into a guinea pig for Steven Martland's experiments. When Martland releases him and a few other test subjects, Grimm leads their breakout, killing multiple guards and blowing up the entire laboratory. Heading to SSC headquarters, he slits a cop's throat and gleefully massacres every officer there. A Mad Artist in his spare time, Grimm, unsatisfied in painting with his own blood, summons James to him so that he can kill him and use his blood to complete his masterpiece.
  • Fight Scene Failure: A common complaint among those who watched is that the show's abuse of the Jump Cut leads to most of the action scenes becoming disorienting and hard to follow.
  • So Okay, It's Average: The consensus of the show. While the plot and the setting are interesting, many viewers consider the characters to be unrelatable and underdeveloped which hampers their enjoyment of the show. Overall, the show is a typical mystery action story inspired by Hollywood action tropes.
