The story starts off in an interesting way and draws the audience in with its worldbuilding and character setup. However as the plot progresses theres a noticeable shift where religious themes begin to dominate. While its completely valid for media to explore religion as part of storytelling in this case the representation seems to reach unnecessarily extreme levels and it feels like the narrative is forcing certain messages rather than integrating them naturally into the plot. For example certain actions or character arcs appear to exist solely to make a critical point about religion rather than serving the progression of the story or the development of the characters. In my opinion the early parts of the series were genuinely engaging and gave me hope that it would be a balanced experience but the middle sections make it harder to stay immersed. The dialogue and scenes start to feel preachy or overly symbolic and instead of enhancing the story the religious undertones come off as heavyhanded. It almost feels like a specific agenda is being pushed at the expense of nuanced storytelling. Another problem is that the focus on extreme representations of religion detracts from the plot complexity. Some characters become caricatures of belief systems rather than multidimensional people which weakens the emotional impact and realism of their journeys. As someone who enjoys exploring deep philosophical or even spiritual themes in media I was hoping for a more respectful and thoughtprovoking approach. Instead I found myself frustrated and pulled out of the experience. By the end it becomes clear that the creators may have intended to critique or raise awareness about certain issues but the way they went about it lacks subtlety and care. Throwing shade at religion especially in such a broad and generalized way is not only disrespectful to many viewers but also undermines the quality of the narrative. Its completely possible to address religious or cultural topics without alienating or offending large groups of peopleand unfortunately this story missed that mark. Despite all this there are still redeeming qualities. The visuals pacing in the early chapters and some of the emotional beats are executed well. If the creators had toned down the extreme messaging and treated religion with more sensitivity the result couldve been far more powerful and universally resonant. So overall its an intriguing piece that starts off well but loses its way under the weight of its controversial thematic choices.
