The episode that utterly killed it
8 May 2022
Warning: Spoilers
The first half of this series was pretty awesome, but the second seemed to only get progressively more messy, and this episode was the accumulation of all that mess. I don't know why it's one of the highest rated in the series, because I found it to be the worst. They keep killing off major characters for little too no reason under the guise of having cinematic value, but this one completely screwed up the character development and killed not one, not two, but four likeable characters for an unbelievably petty reason and showed no care for anyone's abilities or likeability and turned Yuki from alright, to a douchebag, to a complete and irredeemable piece of crap. It literally only killed those characters off in a feeble attempt to be shocking and emotional, but failed in both regards because all it did was throw those characters away. Yuno got away with way too much beforehand, but this time was just plain insulting, it was blatant plot armor, she literally always gets what she wants and I'm pissed because of it. Why do they always give the awful characters good things in this and other series like it? It all just goes completely downhill from there for the rest of the series and I'm half convinced the creator only did this to troll the audience. Nothing about this episode works to the point where it makes a promising series turn completely awful. I'm done with this creator and anything else he's done.
