Hey, there, thanks a lot, I can totally see where you are coming from, I should have gotten a lot more indepth with what I was talking about when it came to the "It feels pointless" statement. What I was trying to say was, that the first season ended with a shocking cliffhanger that was great, until it was resolved in the first episode of the second season in a way that actively rewrites stuff that happened in the first season. For example, the serial killer presented in the second season has absolutely no motive to kill Emma from the first season. I just can't look at season 2s ending without having that on the back of my mind. It is a great cliffhanger for sure, and I can think of so many interesting ways that they could go from here, but there was not a single plot thread in the second season that would need explanation in the third. This would be completely fine in any other type of story but, at least how the ending set it up, Lu Guang would need to change stuff that happened in a time framed we already saw. The problem is, that there is not a single detail that would indicate that happening, apart from a few things in the last 10 minutes of the last episode. Again, the problem is not that the writing is incompetent, but it just doesn't plan ahead, something that can be fatal for time travel stories, but even worse, stories that derive a lot of their entertainment from expectations and cliffhangers. I hope that is at least somewhat understandable, if it isn't, welp, you probably have an excellent reason to not like my review.
Have a good day and once again thanks for helping me out.
The reaction to my Link Click review seems to be pretty mixed, but I am not really getting any feedback on what I did wrong. So, I thought, why don't just ask a few of the guys that didn't like your review on where the problem is and yeah, that's pretty much what I am doing now. If you don't feel like talking about stuff like that, just ignore this message, I am not expecting anyone to give me criticism because I asked for it. Either way, if you do decide to help me out, thanks a lot. Have a good day.
