• Strong character development? It's complicated
• Loveable characters? Yes
• Diverse cast of characters? No
• Flaws of characters a main focus? No

4.0

Competent, fun, and clever, even if the attempts at gallows humor frequently tumbled from grim to glib, and some of the self-aware references were a bit much.

Found a decent middle ground solution for magic and disability intersecting?
