[stares...] ...>sighs<... [stares longer, slumped in chair] ...>sighs heavier, fingers holding bridge of nose<.... You know, this social political...thing is **NOT** the way to go. The forced viewing of homosexuality is **NOT** interesting. Gay romance does **NOT** play well to the viewing audience if the viewing audience **is NOT gay**; which just **_so happens to be 98% of this country_**, America. Review: Gay ex-slave elf-woman is asked for help by her gay ex-girlfriend human. Gay elf-woman and her gay-human male partner team up to help gay ex-girlfriend and her gay dwarf-man partner to steal mcguffin. Gay elf-woman must return to the place she was a slave. And face her ex-owner whom she grew up with as kids. He considers her family, though she has never once returned the sentiment. The two, ofcourse, have to fight because the theft job went bad and the ex-owner just so happens to own the mcguffin. Her ex-girlfriend human was captured. And they must rescue her. All this, even after the ex-owner saves Gay elf-woman's life because of the famial connection he (stupidly) harbors for an intolerant, self-absorbed, murdering, cowardly gay-elf woman. So let's get the plot straight: They attempt to steal from the ex-owner for money. It goes bad. Gay-elf lady nearly looses her life. Gay ex-girlfriend human is captured. Ex-owner saves gay-elf lady thieving/murdering life out of (misplaced, IMO) sentiment. And now he's the bad guy because he wants to use magic -- he's good at --, to bring back her brother -- whom gay elf lady killed -- to life, so they all can rule the land as will be his right once he proves himself so magically inclined to his peers. It's not that there are bad stories. It is that there are bad writers. And (I don't know if this is "Hollywood" making the calls, but we'll call the shotcallers or showrunners "Hollywood" for the sake argument) when Hollywood puts set boundaries around a story, particularly boundaries (checkboxes) that are not shared by the vast majority of the viewing audience, it takes away from everything the show should be trying to do; that of entertaining. And NO amount of special effects or animation action scenes are going to overshadow that. I didn't finish watching this series. I didn't have to. I lost interest when the gay elf lady refused her "brother's" offer to come home, be there when he brings her actual blood brother back to life and release her girlfriend. _Her_ antagonism shapes and fuels her actions from there, and that is how she became the bad guy (IMO). I mean the ex-owner literally has not had the chance to do anything truly evil (not even in her memory flashbacks), and the gay elf woman is pre-emptively being an assuming a-hole. He _is_ holding her gay ex-girlfriend prisoner, but that is only after they try (and fail) to steal from him! Which just happens to be his right. Child-lock this show if you have children under 16 years of age in the house. There are no lessons to be learned here. There are no heroes in this show. 2.5/10 for the animation. -- Bob --
