EPISODE REVIEWS

Man, the sheer scale of the threat finally hits this ep. I was so anxious watching the maelstrom of shadows consume the festival. The animation here was fluid and nightmarish. The pacing here was so chaotic and horrifying.

I'm speechless. Everything happened so fast and just when you think it can't get worse, you're wrong, it does gets worse. This episode will stress me out. What a jaw dropping episode they've done here.

New information about the shadow but it isn't in depth. We get to see the worst case scenario where the shadow wins. Some characters are just talking in riddles like they are the ones who knows what's happening leaving us the viewers puzzled and guessing. Watching this episode feels so frustrating but at the same time it's riveting 🫠
