While the writing and plot was pretty freaking near flawless, I cannot help but be bitter asf that Rin got both Venka and Kitay dead so no 5 stars for you ❤️. I mean, understandably, she was fucked up mentally- but still, my favourite side characters dying within chapters of each other makes me unforgiving.

But also, an issue I have with perhaps more validity lol, is that NONE OF THE REAL ISSUES WERE SOLVED?!/!:&:?? SHE JUST SAID ‘MARTYR TINGS HEHE’ AND THEN COMMITTED UNALIVE AND YOU EXPECT ME TO BE OKAY WITH THAT??? NO, #ABOLISHOPENENDINGS2021
