MODERATORS
So far the best 2 characters have been Norgalle and the oddly Japanese-named Tatsuya.
Norgalle is a big guy, but it was fun to watch him do this:
@rikka@ani.social
It did feel contrived when Xylo ran out of energy, while Tatsuya had been doing most of the fighting, was still flying around, and even doing his Popeye act.
Implausible heroics like Norgalle and Tatsuya were doing were fun to watch, and something I like to see from animated heroes.
On the downside, the story hasn't found its feet yet, and I'm not sure that it's going to.
Rolling from one battle story arc to the next with our cynical hero, annoying goddess is okay, but already feels wearisome.
So pluses and minuses...
Done!
