Miscommunication tropes are not for me. And God, it was so obvious so early on, and it was just 10 hours leading up to finally addressing it. I also hated the cartoonish evilness of the step-sister. I would've liked to have seen her perspective a bit more. The motivations discussed at the end just felt kind of tacked on.
The fact that she literally ran away just felt so ridiculous, albeit in-character.


I liked the interesting perspective with the face blindness. And I guess I liked the romantic dynamic. I finished it quick enough! But I think I was more motivated by just finally getting to the revelation than like any love for the characters.
