All these years and chapters and it doesn't feel like Ohma, Koga or Ryuki have really achieved much. Kazuo regressed to his old self. Gilbert is a joke. Luohan hasn't done anything to show he's evil on-screen, but we're supposed to hate him. Shen is a good, noble, kind, gentle, majestic guy and you should love him because you just should, alright? Also he's just like OUR PROTAGONISTS because he doesn't want to progress the plot. Akoya is STILL missing. Tiger Niko has lost his lustre.
It's funny, Omega is supposed to be about the wider-scale plot and yet it feels completely divorced from what is happening. We had an entire arc where he had to go through the Inside and we just skipped through all the supposedly-brutal shit, OH, BUT ACTUALLY THERE ARE MULTIPLE UNDERGROUND LAYERS OF THE INSIDE! That we won't be seeing! There were literal wars going on with the Worm against states all over the world, and we got to see none of it. I guess Sandro finds it more convenient to have his political intrigue happen off-screen. Like the Westward Wu civil war or the Westward Wu-Kure conflict.
Why anybody would write in an intrigue/large-scale conflict plot and then refuse to actually follow through with any intrigue OR show any notable large-scale conflict is beyond me. But hey, at least we'll get more bad guy humiliation rituals. It sure is satisfying to see actual characters with personalities lose to cardboard-cutouts with zero charisma.
