Stuff like that is why, whenever I experience a story, I try to meet at its own level and enjoy it for what it is and what it's trying to do, rather than what I personally want it to be. I'm not always successful, but it's the primary philosophy I try to have.

While he's not exactly deep, I did enjoy the small arc Hikaru had about understanding that sometimes parents do harsh things for their child's' own good. I know it's a very debatable life lesson to have, but it did turn him from a literal background character into one with some prominence, so I enjoyed it.

You absolutely should watch Revice and form your own view on it. Even if you end up not liking it, atleast you'll be able to see for yourself if it has merit or not.

What's funny is that the antivax thing isn't even an arc, it's literally just a minor plot detail that gets brought up all of twice, and only very late in the show's' run too. Even then, you can easily interpret it as the corruption of vaccines, rather than vaccines in and of themselves being bad.

Even if the way Daiji's' arc went wasn't how it was originally planned, it definitely turned out all the better for it. Not all rewrites are bad!

I'd argue that Vice was never retconned. His intentions are pretty clearcut from the getgo, especially if you read the LINE messages.

Having not seen Saber yet, I actually didn't even know that. Funny coincidence.
