3.75, this is what I imagine lawyer greys anatomy would be, shout out ingrid yung

needed a crazy rich asian style 3 book series for this

genuinely why did they choose to adapt the show in the way they did, we were robbed of this
if it was a matter of making more romance happen they still could’ve done that with this original book set up??

nothing has sold me on going to New York more than this book and madagascar

the more I listen to this the more I’m confused why they chose to adapt it the way they did… just have the show set in the 2000s? idk

watched the entire netflix series bc of arden cho so now we’re here

solid till about 70% (although I was worried why nothing had happened that far in) and then at 80% we crashed and burned and then at 97% our engine also exploded for good measure

I get that this is him post snap but we still need better progression to who he is now this doesn’t feel natural - especially the fighting, even for the circumstances

got a little muddled in the middle but solid beginning + end

this was the beginning of the end of my last reread since this section is just genuinely so confusing to keep up with

I think my problem with this series has always been that regardless of how interesting the implications are, they’re still IMPLICATIONS. this world has so much to offer yet fleshing it out always gets sidelined. I think we should be moving slower + more in depth

liked this better than the last couple of volumes

I never know how to feel about nico just being the way he is

sometimes it’s really hard to make out what he’s drawing but I think it’s better for my sanity this way

canon event time

can never trust when someone is happy in this series because I know they’re gonna go through hell the next chapter

need all of my anatomy lectures to be presented this way

trying to read, still in slump city

trying to remember what it’s like to read a book again

yomo one chance pls 🙏

the touka art on the inner pages is beautiful I love her

her death scene gets me every time

went to write “my og yoshiki and hikaru” but apparently I already wrote than on my notes for the last book 💀

anyways reread bc I’ve stretched out reading the full series for like 3 years and now I need to go back and try again

“Wait, what? Do we really want to consider that life might not be worth living—just when we were starting to feel good about ourselves? Who might think otherwise, except someone in terrible pain or, worse, a philosopher?
We’re going to go for the second option.”

shout out to Todd for the easily-est(? I gave up on finding the right word) digestible philosophy book I’ve read in a long time

restarting bc I sat on it too long

I fear the magnus chase books were the only solid piece of post hoo writing… in so many ways does this book feel like a step back, I miss Percy and annabeth but they feel like caricatures of themselves here. I feel like if we put this entire series into one book/cut them down to novellas it would make more sense but right now these definitely feel like a drawn out nostalgia bait cash grab

what in the danganronpa

sunk cost fallacy-ed myself into reading the rest of this

It’s hard to pinpoint what specifically, but honestly everything about this has been disappointing to me

lowkey rooting for a throuple here
