3.0

Levana being the villain before she was even the villain.  Channary triggering a lot of the villain arc for her sister but at the same time Levana was never a decent person.  Manipulating a man into marrying her and murdering his wife whom he loved and so much more, Winter’s dad deserved so much better.

It was interesting learning about how the lunar society works.
