It still hit the same beats that I've liked about the rest of WtC. It's why I've been somewhat dismissive of the idea that BT was his ghost writer or something. Chiru likely would have turned out better with him still alive but one of my main takeaways from Ciconia was that Ryukishi still had it what it took to get me really engrossed in his characters and story. I can't say for sure he wouldn't have dropped the ball later on but I was at least interested in where it was going. Now I'll probably never get to see that.
