And now we're going into the worst CYL next month, and I can't wait to see how that one's going to fly with Flopyrnir leading the pack.
Sharena's the only winner I actually care about but you cannot convince me IS didn't bot those votes in out of spite.

I generally like the series and don't mind the Yokoyama era much, but I think the first time I looked at this series and genuinely felt awful over the direction is that new cutscene in Y0DC that directly references the watch and ruins the emotional gut punch of the ending.

I have a high tolerance for stupid shit and bad writing, but holy fuck, rewriting something after the fact to ruin the payoff of an ending while also making a character survive the epicenter of a fucking *car bomb* is something else.
