Okay, sure. Let’s totally rewrite this character in the eleventh hour. Impressions: Not helping the impression that the writing has totally fallen apart here with another pretty nonsensical talking heads episode. Ciel turns out to be some clueless child who wubs her big sister so so much, but occasionally gets hijacked by murder voices. We …
Winter 2024 – Week 11 in Review
Hello folks, and welcome the heck back to Wrong Every Time.
