ngl i was so confused for the last few mins of the episode. like what was going on?
oh same anon same. like i wasn’t particularly mad or disappointed about how anything went plot-wise, that was fine. I guess i was just expecting the climax to be… bigger?? they set up this grand conspiracy for the whole show just for it to end like that?? it’s not that i think the resolution is anticlimactic either, just delivered in a weird way. like if thua had his whole moment and it wasn’t all brushed away as some ‘student film stunt’ and then we actually got to see the characters deal with the fall out, bc we kinda did with akk having his emotional moments and ayan getting it all out in front of chadok, i more mean thua dealing with any consequences of what he did. he did all this stuff and then 10 seconds later they’re all… fine??? playing happy families making a film???? idk it just seems weird that kan and wat were so conformational with akk for what he did and then they just apparently let that go, then no one stays mad at thua, nor does anyone have anything to say about namo, when people finding out the truth was built up to be such a huge thing this whole time. and that’s what i wanna see, I wanna see the fallout and anger and them reconciling, even if it is rushed, i still wanna see it. characters can’t act like this and then be fine in the next scene, it just ruins continuity more than anything. plus i feel like the whole outing thing was just… not right?? im not mad that they did it, but for a universe that clearly has homophobia and in an environment where all this conformist shit is so clear, it’s not that i want to see that, it’s more i would’ve liked to have seen akk having to deal with that. being outed when you yourself are not 100% comfortable with your sexuality is a big and difficult thing and it would’ve been so interesting to see akk deal with that. but no, it’s like they said actually we’ve done enough character growth we’re ending here it was nice while it lasted. so yeah, the ep just had this weird vibe. no part of the resolution felt like it resolved anything and yes i fucking love seeing them all happy and being sweet but it still doesn’t change the fact that it doesn’t feel right. it really does feel like i missed half an ep and yet when i go back to find it, it just isn’t there.
#idk im feeling weird about it#it’s so hard to be mad at this show bc I love it so much#and as much as I would’ve loved a huge climax where akk gets mad and leads a rebellion against the system and it’s big and dramatic and bold#i get that this small resolution is trying to show that at the heart of it it was all about humans struggling with their emotions and trying#to find a place and doing what they can to stay afloat and how hard it is to turn the tide#i like that message that this isn’t some fight against the bad people it’s people perpetuating badness bc they’re hurt and they don’t know#what else to do#I like that it tells us that the hardest thing is to break that chain but that you can do it if you find the goodness in yourself and#others and the kindness to forgive yourself#but then to cold cut to besties making movies I just????#like fuck get mad at thua!!!!! have a moment to argue and a moment to breathe and reflect and a moment to come back together and apologise#and find a way to move forward. NOT THIS#this makes no sense!!!!#it’s like I’m enjoying myself bc it’s so cute and fun but if you just chuck me into Disneyland yeah I’ll enjoy it but I’ll also be hella#confused as to how I got there#bc that’s what it’s like it’s like being at a theme park riding all the rollercoasters but I didn’t pay my entry fee im not supposed to be#here and I didn’t earn it but it’s fun so?????#idk I don’t wanna be disappointed but it just didn’t do what I expected so#but thanks anon for letting me rant I needed to get this off my chest#the eclipse
