i really do have high hopes for the 6th anniversary. similarly to how i feel that the the first AU event, secrets of the tomb, distilled and sharpened each love interest, i think the agatha christie AU is letting them do that again but with more focus on themes; for each LI but also for the story overall. giving a mystery otome the permission (or even the imperative) to indulge in the most classic type of Mystery means that it'll have to reflect on its origins and essential nature
#haha i wanted to use the word 初心 so bad in the last sentence#do hope that i conveyed my thought process well enough...#idk i'm sure i'm partly going feral over this bc of my own enjoyment of detective novels but GOD they brought their A game this year#honestly so bold (and smart) of them to do a hard pivot instead of immediately trying to one-up a wedding#also... we can't overlook the fact that this is the otome genre and agatha christie is a female author!! i loved that dev interview about t#this event#man. such whiplash returning to TOT with this compared to the uhh other fandom stuff i've been immersed in. to keep it vague.#tot liveblog
