Halfway through the first episode and we're still watching badly-dubbed pre-teens doing everyday pre-teen things. At some point something may happen, but honestly, at this point who cares.
Despite consuming a lot of valuable screen time, the kids haven't been provided any backstory or motivations which might convince us they are more interesting or compelling than any other group of four kids. In other words, why bother with all this setup when it is a setup to nothing.
Eventually the kids will disappear or something (no spoilers here), which would be a lot more exciting if we cared for these children on a level more than we care for all children in general. But as it is we're watching four random interchangeable badly-dubbed child-actors experience something that should be interesting but isn't.
Seinfeld famously said his show was about nothing. He could have been speaking of this show. Four stars for the four child-actors. Zero stars for whoever was in charge of character development. Four stars.
