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

2.0


 it's hard to ignore that the original myths weren't matching the modern homoerotic exclusive twist Madeline gave it. 
this isn't heartstopper, and Achilles isn't really that morally great by today standarts(I mean didn't he raped several woman in the OG?) so I kinda feel like we should've also seen that instead of suger coating it
