What surprised fans as well as Sean Strickland was the casting of Yerin Ha as Kwan Ha. There were zombie-like ‘Flood’ storylines throughout the main plotline. In the series, Ha is an insurrectionist who takes on the role of a prophet that addresses the ‘Flood.’
Strickland also spoke out against the show’s emphasis on an Asian supporting cast and a veteran with special needs rather than the main character. Furthermore, he is not alone as the series has experienced criticism in both seasons. Even though Halo is a one-person shooter, the plot has to be advanced by the show’s characterizations.
