Moriarty the Patriot Episode 2: The Scarlet Eyes Act 1

Dang, a backstory in the second episode already? That was unique. 😆 I really liked how this episode was laid out. The storyline progressed smoothly, and the emotions it wanted to convey really nailed it, lol. It got me annoyed. Well done!

Well, this was very unusual, getting a backstory as early as the second episode, lol. But this was already really good. The pacing was great, though it got a little confusing with the timeline transitions between scenes. They could've made it a bit clearer.

Really liked this episode so far. I could relate to Albert's inner conflict. The whole vibe of this episode felt like a setup or a turning point that led to the present timeline. Honestly, it was just really intriguing.

An introduction to a character that has a scene on the first episode, Albert. Once again, even if we do get some backstory and characterization for Moriarty, the fact he can make a cough medicine and master it enough to teach it to an adult, had me curious on where he learn things, especially with his background. I do like the subtlity of Albert's writing in this episode. Not everything has to be said outright. But something about the pacing feels off, in my opinion, but I couldn't point it out as of now. But this is an good episode, I do hope they continue this plotline and doesn't jump back to the present yet.

No esperaba una historia de origen tan pronto, normalmente es más avanzada la serie. Me gusta mucho que nos sitúan más en el contexto de los personajes, sus circunstancias e ideales.

Cómo pensé en el capítulo anterior, en la serie se maneja un discurso y punto de vista que hacen cuestionar qué es realmente lo correcto, como manifiesta uno de los personajes, técnicamente en cuestiones de la moralidad social, está mal, pero en cuestiones de justicia, técnicamente es correcto. Tengo altas expectativas

this ep 2 hits different when you realize it's basically the origin of the story. way heavier on the backstory and class politics than ep 1 so the pacing slows down a bit, hmmm the brother stuff especially hits too but still slower burn but don't you dare skip this one
