I think I'm starting to get this after Kurona called the show "marmite"? Because I've always found it weird how much flak Faiz takes for everything that isn't a suit design, and now I'm getting the feeling none of this is really about how good or bad the show is at what it's doing so much as the simple question of "how much of a s*** can I give?", and looking at it that way, it like, immediately makes sense why opinions on it are spread the way they are.
