Only watched the first episode of the second season but my thoughts are: bad

Fair, i definitely struggled through the season because, in my opinion, we're getting a lot of things that are clearly trying to get at the source content/arcs/whatever, while shoving three book series into a single show. Like, there are little bits that I felt I could really like, but the way it was written was so weird. Like, kaz having flashbacks in the stadwatch wagon with Jesper is both acurrate and inaccurate in such a weird way that i can't fully enjoy it or hate it. Idk im currently at the point where it all just feels weird to me and im being pretty selectove over choosing what bits i pay any attention to and care about lol

#sorry for rambling #the good thing about the show is that because it is so removed from the SoC trilogy from the get-go that even though as a fan im upset #i dont feel like my feelings towards the books are tainted #because they feel like distinct entities #idk s&b is such a unique adaptation #it doesnt feel disrespect or neglectful of the source like the PJO movies were #but they also deviate enough that the stories are irreparably different from the books #but i get why people dont like the show #i just dont #it doesnt seem fundamentally bad or good to me #at least the crow bits #cause the main plot was dryyyyy so boring #darkling was the most boring character ever we spent way to much time with him #sab spoilers
