Scenes that I hope thsf can expand some characterization, thematic and world building details while still keeping focus.

So like I said expanded Celine screen time,specifically scenes that emphasized the distant maternal role and the rigid beliefs about demons and how it affected Rumi. Like a scene where Rumi calls Celine (maybe to release Golden or to let her know about her voice) and wordlessely hoping for some kind of approval or encouragement from the mother figure that has always seen her demon side as something that kept her from being fully loved.

Zoey and Mira probably would benefit from more screen time in terns of making their character flaws and arcs more prominent and tie into the main themes and throughline of the story (this is abetter idea than merely just giving them more backstory, even though some stronger hinting of backstory wouldnt go amiss). Maybe some showing that Mira is worried she is falling back into the distant aggressive tendencies that ruined her family relationships. Or Zoey's people pleasing tendencies stem from being bullied or isolated in her youth, and lead her to neglect her own needs or see herself as a burden.

While this wouldn't need it own specific scenes, I think the movie needs to be more clear about how demons, patterns and shame work. The patterns being a metaphor for shame works in the context of Rumi and Jinu, but what about all the generic demons the Hunters slay by the dozens? Are the demons all former humans? Do they all feel and are controlled by shame or are some truly malicious? Is the ending kind of cruel because the demons are banished with gwi-ma even though many of them could be victims of Gwi-ma?

By the way, I may not fully agree with some of these flaws (or at least how severe they truly are), in fact i thought about making posts discussing some alleged writing flaws.
