would love to state my thoughts on it. I really do NOT like the direction the last two episodes took. but it feels like everyone else out there has seen a very different story than I do somehow

idk the message feels like less about a story about love and the way love affects people/can hurt people and more "don't fight back against the system that wants you dead dumbass" which is definetly a message to have in your story in 2025

like I don't know what is the value of your protag going "humans are bad and evil" in a story where humans are an oppressed class kidnapped from their homes and abused/killed and kept as pets for aliens entertainment. in any other case I'd take it as "writer or character hasn't grown past the age of 13" but it feels like a completely different message in this context. mainly "we deserve all that happening to us"

especially after mizi disavows all hyunas efforts with the rebellion

instead of taking her anger out on the people who keep her in the system in the first place she takes her anger out on people who are/have suffered from that system. she's a fucking class traitor

idk I feel like it's ironic to have a story with anti revolutionary themes and then throw a revolutionary girl utena reference in there

I swear to god. does anyone else see this. I feel like I'm going crazy

maybe I'm just too aromantic for whatever message they were trying to tell to resonate
