Aside from the original source material, Lim manages to use the “Mulan” mythos to create a surprisingly engrossing story with steeped in Chinese mythology while still capturing the central moral of the 1998 film.

I wish there was more emphasis on shang and mulan's relationship at the end, although I understand this it fit in between scenes in the movie. Also, felt like there was so much action at times, it was hard to keep up with who was moving where and who was fighting what.
