I like the set up about finding Rean and being without him but I’ve also since realized that this is just going to increase his protagonist syndrome 10fold because he’s literally the only thing holding all these fucking people together and only a handful of them have had time to develop, and very few of them without him.

And like... this fucking curse is such a terrible plot point that yanks the setting in such a bad direction and starts ACTIVELY REWRITING some of its best and most memorable parts! People do bad things because they do bad things, not because of a stupid curse!

And I was willing to roll with it but like you get to Ash and his reunion scene should be good! And should be a big deal! And the friendship speeches just start fucking turning to Rean, and literally become “well Rean needs us and he has it worse than you right now” which is like!!! Is this it? Is everything going to be you have to because Rean? I don’t care about Rean in this moment, I care about Ash!

And then we say goodbye to Randy despite how criminally underused he’s been... Nary a conversation with Sara or Fie or Rutger who did, you know, kill his dad... Where is the RESOLUTION?
