i don't even understand what that fight was about, but apparently it was big enough for a 10 year time jump.

not feelin this

not showing the internal work, just jumping between steps like it's almost arbitrary

i started this because i needed something with a different sort of character than i've been reading lately, but so far it feels underdeveloped and the characters actions kind of random

yeah, nope. no desire to ever pick this up again

eh, not really feeling this yet
