EPISODE REVIEWS
Fluid vaulting graphics show Eiji’s skill. Eiji leaping for freedom while Skip is lost is the peak moment. i feels the high stakes.
UP: Eiji's "flying" moment is BEAUTIFUL symbolism. Ash watching him soar represents freedom he can't reach. The action is tense and gripping. DOWN: Some scenes touch on Ash's past trauma, which is hard to watch. Important context, but uncomfortable. 😢
I felt the tension rising fast in this episode because Arthur’s betrayal cuts deep, and everything spirals from there. The kidnapping shook me, and the violence felt raw and very personal.
