At first, the violence was a lot and I wasn't sure I wanted to continue. Then I got invested in the characters. For all their flaws, they're loveable guys. After that I was afraid to find out what bad things were going to happen to the guys so I thought about quitting. But holy what?! I did NOT imagine that twist at the end?! And that *other* twist, too. WOW
