my thoughts/rambles on ofmd s2
spoilers ahead!!
it was realy great but way too fast. i wish we had more time to see developments of other characters like frenchie or roach etc. instead of just stede and ed (don’t get me wrong blackbonnet is so cute). the jim and archie, olu and zheng thing also felt kinda random? and really rushed. unlike in s1, where there like almost an equal amount of screentime for most characters which made it really enjoyable to watch. as well as izzy’s character arc, yes, it is good but idk it just felt so rushed. also, stede and ed’s making up and breaking up also felt rushed like dude, you break up then read a love note and suddenly you’re like omg im in love w you again and i completely forgot abt all the shitty stuff you said to me when we broke up!! if they had more time or like another episode, it wld make the season even better.
izzy. since s1, i alr loved izzy sm and this season i loved him even more lmao. his character development was so sweet but like i said earlier, very rushed. there is definitely much more room to explore and develop izzy’s character rather than just abruptly making izzy’s attitude change if that makes sense?? also, killing him off (which actually made me cry) made his entire character arc and development feel very cheap and ‘wasted’. his death was also really abrupt and rushed (i guess?), in which after he passed, he was justed buried and then forgotten? by the crew. tbh i wld think they wld show some angsty montage of the crew but i guess not. also like my ouizzy dreams didnt come true.
i seriously seriously wish there was more frenchie screentime. maybe im just biased but him in s1 made it so fun!!
overalll, s2 was honestly not as good as s1 due to how fast paced and rushed it felt, as well as how it felt extremely centred arnd stede and ed only. however, i still really love this season sm, its so heartwarming and sweet but it can’t beat s1. also i really liked the ending of s2, it was super cute :)) thats it!
thanks for reading my nonsense! im not sure if it even made sense but yea, those are my thoughts! :)
