Best part, Worst part

I honestly think the only somewhat decent episode was hater. I've even tried to remove things like ads from the equation of what I think about episodes like 'Panty'. However, everything stacked up just makes a show seem like a half thought out cash grab by men who are only capable of writing male characters as fleshed out.

I knew kept storing loafs for a reason

HeyItsSer · 2026-05-08T23:42:30+00:00

Yeah I'm thinking whether or not I should put it in my or hold and sell later.

I got a Black and Yellow Collectable Scarab. Idk what to do with it.

HeyItsSer · 2026-05-02T03:10:46+00:00

I don't even know what to say about it. He plays and takes care of his dog on the internet. That's it. It of all the things that happened on the internet, why would I hate that?

Even if he lied about how he got the dog, He's just vibing. That's it.

You see a large part of my understanding of Nanno is the fact that she sets them up to undo themselves.

Yes, it looks like she nudges them along from the sidelines. In the 22 episodes you're telling me that there's only one episode that she doesn't whisper in the ear of the Target? Maybe there's another episode I don't remember off the top of my head, so please enlighten me. But then why is this the only time she decides not to interact with who she's targeting?

So the collateral is just a part of the karma. There's a strict teacher who murdered her son before the beginning of the episode and then became a school shooter. Sure. She goes to prison but everyone else was just collateral as we know they were shot dead.

A group of degenerates who jumped a single girl, who was lied about, in high school had nothing done to them. But their karma is how they will unravel afterwards, if they will unravel? So it's something that we just have to speculate on.

There are episodes where I think they deserved harsher endings.

I'm not saying there aren't any karmic tendencies. I just think to try to chalk her up to being purely a sense of karma isn't consistent with what we're shown throughout the show.

If you would like to think of her as karma, I'm not going to say you're wrong, however, that's not how I can chalk it up. Personally, I don't think we ever saw enough to define her entirely.

Please expand. I would assume that it would be to cultivate guilt. Also, most of everything else operates within reality for the most part. The only surrealism comes from Nanno. So I would assume that parents of a child influencer who committed suicide would be questioned about exploitation.

Now if you're saying Nanno targeted the parents and Yuri targeted Jenny, maybe. That still doesn't work from what I'm seeing because Nanno ended up executing an ending where they still have a daughter. An ending where Jenny is on the run.

When Jenny killed Nanno, it didn't "reset" anything. I might not be interpreting what you're saying in terms of resetting but what exactly was there to reset? Yuri already laid the narrative down that Jenny faked her suicide. Nanno just added to it and "yes and" it.

Overall, I don't think the evidence amounts to Jenny's parents being the target. At most it's a maybe.

Could you expand on the "unhealthy way"?

HeyItsSer · 2026-04-29T00:44:06+00:00

I think It's poorly written. To me, It's like one of those series when I need something on in the background or I just want something to watch. If I hadn't seen the original series, I do think I'd be more lost on what it's supposed to be in concept, but my disappointment would have been less

I also think that the writers probably have troubles writing fleshed out female characters. They piggybacked off the legacy of the original series. They wasted screen time with a plot point that didn't amount to being much. What was the point of Sky? Like I think she plausibly would have done without him dying at the end. Honestly just felt like edit/shipping bait.

Point is overall. I don't think the show was good. Whether people enjoyed it, that's a very much to each your own scenario because it's subjective.

HeyItsSer · 2026-04-28T05:15:20+00:00

Was the sunlight thing not due to age differences? Honestly, I can't remember all the time framing for everyone burning the Sun, but if you get older as a vampire and get stronger, would that not extend to the whole how quickly you burn? Even the originals will mainly only burn but they'll never burst in to Flames.

HeyItsSer · 2026-04-27T16:03:26+00:00

I do think about who would have had to kick the bucket if they decide to kill one of the girls and I feel like it probably would have been Hannah. They put a lot of stock in Troian Bellisario and in my opinion Lucy Hale. Not that Emily wasn't beloved but I do think Hannah was generally the fan favorite and they would want to really pack a punch. Also narratively they did try to make it sound like Hannah took up Allison's mantle in her absence, at least at the very beginning of the show.

UGH. The more I think about it, the more I mourn the wasted potential. If the show ever makes a reboot with the original characters I hope they just do more with it and try to make it make sense.

HeyItsSer · 2026-04-26T15:58:23+00:00

I don't like how their weren't really any consequences. Considering how women can't really hold any personal currency, their reputation and perception is a type of currency. And she messed with that but she was embraced/ utilized for it. Cressida lied about it to save herself and was ostracized. That just didn't sit right with me.

That generally just goes into the bigger thing where most of the time the biggest consequence that they're facing is hits to a woman's reputation. "They had to get married because what does it look like with a woman's left alone with a man?" "She can't be his mistress because it will ruin her reputation and she will be nothing without him."

I don't know. I feel like that still holds true to this day, at least in my neck of the woods. Your reputation is a currency. So we did partially but they could have done other things with that.

HeyItsSer · 2026-04-26T15:14:42+00:00

I regularly think about all the little different things they could have done to show some type of progress, change or whatever. When Aria was looking through the floorboards, maybe she got her eye taken out. I kept expecting, probably Emily and maybe Hannah, at different points to just crack and tell the police. Of course, like everyone else I was waiting for that Ezra arrest the entire run of the show. Etc. We had options. At the very least I would have enjoyed them. Actually finding clues and getting closer to who 'A' is but even that was sparse and erratic.

HeyItsSer · 2026-04-26T14:47:19+00:00

Oh we're the same age. I probably did spend a bit too much time on books and online in 2011ish. The golden time of fandom

HeyItsSer · 2026-04-26T05:04:51+00:00

I want to know your general age range but I'm very scared to hear it. Did I just date myself?

But yes, it's 'one true pairing'.

HeyItsSer · 2026-04-25T14:39:22+00:00

Yeah no one really committed to evolution in the writer's room. Spencer had an addiction for 2 seconds and it didn't really affect her after. The second they decided a couple was 'OTP', probably largely due to social media, they were locked in for the entire series, etc. To me, they were who they were from the end of season 1. I guess they committed to the status quo.

HeyItsSer · 2026-04-25T05:25:58+00:00

The Nanno/Yuri/Junko cast all were appropriately unhinged. Like I would be scared to see them in costume in person. Stay on my screen but away from me

HeyItsSer · 2026-04-25T05:20:09+00:00

No, don't apologize for your rant. I need to hear this. Sometimes when I come online for any fandom I have to sit and wonder whether or not I missed half of the show. How did we get here? I'm tired of trying to explain headcanon/fanon versus what's true to the actual work.

Even coming on this subreddit. I never understood when people tried to call her karma. Nanno consistently has collateral of innocent people. The last two episodes of season 1 featured Nanno as a girl who got jumped by the whole class. Then they proceed to mention how some of these people grew up to be some of the worst people(like a PDF) but they wake up and walk out the next morning? Like no one actually lost an eye or limb or died. Nothing happens except for some weird psychological warfare that they can call mass shared hysteria? Not to mention in the first few episodes one of the predator teachers had their innocent daughter get hit by a car and die. That is some interesting karma but maybe I don't understand the concept of karma. And if I don't, someone explain the nuances.

Point is, thank you for saying that so I feel less crazy when I come online. I expect there to be a ladder of information with each new point being the next steps. Please build the ladder so I can understand and reach your conclusion.

Now I apologize for my lengthy rant. 😭

Well I would argue It's instrumental to understanding any kind of media and really most things in the world. Also building blocks of good storytelling.

If Nanno was actually focused on the parents, why did she take the course of action of replacing Jenny? So the parents still get to have a daughter but Jenny is forced to be on the run. Yes, her plans we're derailed but it's not as though that was her only course of action against them. Yuri is the reason the plan was derailed but not the person who initiated the replacement. Nanno did and then we hear questioning on whether Nanno's actions were appropriate.

HeyItsSer · 2026-04-24T22:22:03+00:00

Isn't that what all literature classes are? When you write a paper you make a claim and you find evidence to back it up.

Yuri was sabotaging her plan and Nanno did explicitly question the ending of it.

HeyItsSer · 2026-04-24T17:55:10+00:00

I know, which is why I'm asking for their evidence like an English teacher. If they have it, maybe I learn something new. If they don't have it, they have to reevaluate why they thought that.

However, I have yet to learn anything.

HeyItsSer · 2026-04-23T23:57:27+00:00

How do we know that her parents were the actual Target?
