- Plot- or character-driven? Character
- Strong character development? It's complicated
- Loveable characters? It's complicated
- Diverse cast of characters? No
- Flaws of characters a main focus? Yes
What it really comes down to for me is this (TW btw)
Was it absolutely vital to the story for one of the female characters to be raped, impregnated via that rape, induce a miscarriage by smashing her own abdomen with rocks and eventually be torn apart by wolves? I think not.
And was it absolutely vital for an eight year old to witness all of that via whatever supernatural means were at play? Definitely not.
Apparently men will do anything except go to therapy.
