So your take is that it’s just a poorly written story that’s overly reliant on an excessively drawn out and tedious prologue? That sounds like we’re in agreement! I understand why all the things that happen at the beginning of the story are there, I just don’t understand why they took 4 full episodes to tell us 20 minutes worth of backstory. It feels like they didn’t have enough written to fill 12 episodes so someone panicked and just dragged it out as long as possible.
