I don't know why I'm supposed to care who or what this guy marries. We have a brief introduction to his arranged marriage, no knowledge of the characters, and he immediately makes this inadvertent unofficiated marriage. So I have to learn the rules of the dead marrying the living? I don't want to play.
I did doze off, and the dark monochrome images repelled my attention, so maybe it's better than I think. So I'll be generous, but skeptical.
