This is the absurdity of Senlin Ascends meets the time loop gymnastics of The 7 1/2 Deaths of Evelyn Hardcastle with the plot dynamics of the Knives Out franchise.
What an execution. It wasn’t flawless but it fucking worked outside of a couple subplots that didn’t quite have the same level of oomph as some of the main plot choices did. Some of it was predictable, other parts were not and genuinely surprised me and the combination of the two was so satisfying.
This was the sapphic locked room mystery time loop adventures of an exhausted single mother tale of my dreams and I could not have asked for any better.
Want the sequel yesterday, need this first one of the series to grace my physical shelves yesterday too.
