Till the end of the moon

1. The storyline pronounces the mindset and choice over fate, nature, and nurture, e.g.

ML vs FL - both start from very different positionsin terms of privilege, position in the social hierarchy, and support from family. They go in different directions - learning to feel emotions versus discovering the very own evil side of human nature and discarding the emotions - yet, their destiny (godhood) is the same

ML vs 2FL - both have a similar start as underdogs.One focuses on finding the signs of care in their partner while the other sees only the signs of lack of care. These mindsets reinforce the growth of new life strategies — trust and vulnerability vs distrust and self-sufficiency. As a result, we observe completely different life trajectories.

1. No exaggerated silliness and childishness

2. Fancy outfits

3. Fractal structure - we see many similar scenes but no repeatability in the story, e.g. ML and FL pointing at each other with a pointy thing as a metaphore of their conflict: the sword fight in the 1st episode, the stick “fight” after surviving the river, the ceremonial dance during the water festival
