That last 3 episode arc was soooo fucking good
It's been such a solid season so far. The 3 episode format works quite nicely. Just hoping the last 3 don't go too hard on the fan service stuff.
I’m not gonna lie, it really put a damper on my enjoyment of the show when they went all-in on the shamanistic great man theory shit with the force healing prophecy scene.
Like, I get it, prophecies and shamanistic powers literally canonically irrefutably exist in the world setting, but to me this show was supposed to be about how revolutions are made possible by people, their material conditions, their labor, their sacrifices, and their decisions. Not destiny or wizards.
Otherwise an incredible show though, what a refreshing piece of “prestige” mainstream media in a world full of slop.
I had the same reaction to that scene as you and was pretty bummed out at first. I have since come around to having similar feelings as XiaCobolt does in this thread
