Girl From Nowhere Audience Reviews
Fans of the show can't get enough of Nanno (played in equal parts brilliant and devilish by actress Chicha Amatayakul) and many Reddit users agree that it's a highly enjoyable, unconventional series.
As IMDb user msghall notes in their review, "While not the most technically proficient series, Girl From Nowhere is entertaining, perplexing, and totally Thai. Most of the episodes end up with morality tales that don't always fit western mores. You almost expect typical lessons learned, but this show surprises with its sophistication in grappling with societal issues, especially involving young people. It doesn't take itself too seriously, dropping in scenes (like the one in ep 2 with the main character dancing to herself in the schoolyard) that you don't expect." (via IMDb)
