Can someone enjoy a work and criticizing it at the same time? Sorry if this ask so sudden.

Yes.

The Wittebane lore got me interested in The Owl House in the first place and introduced me to a passionate fandom, which included @anglerflsh. The way "Watching and Dreaming" did it dirty by ignoring all the build-up from Season 2 to the first two episodes of Season 3 is so egregious. I've had bad times among the fandom, but it's been great to find people with whom I could discuss the show from a critical lens on Tumblr and the Discord server of @mdhwrites.

Philip would absolutely get along with Bai Jin from Karakuri Circus over having older brothers who abandoned them and everything they stood for—even though both of them had looked up to and had the closest bonds with their brothers since childhood—and how the writers did them dirty by neglecting their backgrounds and misrepresenting their motives. I count Bai Yin among the worst brothers in fiction alongside Yuguro Musa from Moribito II: Guardian of the Darkness and Akio Ohtori from Revolutionary Girl Utena. It's egregious how Fujita refuses to criticize him as much as he does with Bai Jin given the themes of love and relationships in the manga.

As for Witch Hat Atelier, I love Tartah's arc in which he finds a way around his disability and the Romonon arc in which the apprentices complement each other, helping them grow up—Richeh's and Eunie's backstories are among the greatest in the series and Eunie's internal struggles connect with the lore too! I wish Shirahama had been more resolute in criticizing the rigidity and cruelty of witch society like she did with Coco's, Agott's, Tartah's, Richeh's, and Eunie's backgrounds.

Why is Qifrey not allowed to convey his struggles through his own voice like the apprentices, Luluci, and Dagda? Why do almost every bad adult figure—including Beldaruit who partook in the neglect of Qifrey by the adults around him and blames his own apprentice for being the way he is due to it—escape a call-out for their behavior unlike Luluci's teacher? Why are the Knights Moralis allowed to act like judges, juries, and executioners? Why do they threaten to erase people's memories first instead of asking questions whenever they show up? Why do they not pursue the Brimmed Caps as much as Qifrey has been doing on his own when they are supposed to enforce the law of magic? Where are detectives and attorneys? Why has Luluci been granted kindness and understanding when everyone else—even Agott from the prestigious house of Arkrome—receives nothing but cruelty and ignorance from the Knights Moralis?

Speaking from experience, I find people to be more open to criticism for The Owl House than for Witch Hat Atelier. People such as @imsosocold, @let-us-cultivate-our-garden, @mdhwrites, @peacesmovingcabaret, @the-enchanted-archivist have talked about the flaws of The Owl House but I've never seen anyone examining the series from a critical lens like them on Tumblr or Discord.

TILL THE END OF THE MOON 长月烬明, dir. Kuk Kok Leung

It isn't possible to love and part. You will wish that it was. You can transmute love, ignore it, muddle it, but you can never pull it out of you. I know by experience that the poets are right; love is eternal.

I often recall the bamboo forest... If I could choose, I really wish that I could stay with you forever in that cottage in the bamboo forest, peacefully living the rest of our lives.

Chinese drama logic -

If you are a protagonist and want to do evil things, the first thing you must do is wear red eye liner/shadow. Accompanied by red lipstick.

The story of the Wittebane brothers from The Owl House reminds me of the story of the Bai brothers from Karakuri Circus both in concept and execution.

The entire plot of each series kickstarts when the older brother abandons the younger brother and everything they had pursued together for years for a foreign woman. The younger brother goes mad afterwards, creates a series of artificial beings in the image of a loved one, acquires immortality through immoral means, and becomes the main antagonist of the series. The main antagonist is a foil to the kid hero and possesses or has possessed another human being at some point.

Each series suggests a more complex and sympathetic side of the main antagonist, only to reduce his character to a crazy villain.

In the case of the Wittebane brothers, at least it was a good thing that Caleb unlearned his community's toxic values and the show is so vague on their story that it gives us no idea of what Evelyn's face looked like.

As for the Bai brothers, Karakuri Circus presents their story in a far more visible, albeit equally misleading, manner. Bai Yin nonsencially developed a contempt for his family business after finding out about Francine's tragic background and made that clear to his younger brother while withholding crucial information about his future wife, who had already been good friends with his younger brother, in a moment of callous selfishness. It was Bai Jin who remembered her love for clowns and entertainers even after his descent to madness.

I can't speak a lot about Dana Terrace as I'm only interested in the Wittebane brothers. As for Kazuhiro Fujita, this same manga creator portrayed Lucille, Angelina, and Shoji in a far more graceful manner, so it wasn't like he didn't know better as a writer.
