okay i finished replaying te 1&2 and here my Thoughts
i think it's rlly underrated! i think people like it, but also don't appreciate it enough. like i feel like everyone was kinda eh on book two but i enjoyed it. it wasn't as good as book one and the pacing was a bit off, but it's still good. kane was a fun villain and i think the morality feature was interesting. it's a fun world that is pretty immersive considering it touches every aspect of the story. it strikes the right balance between world saving stuff and fun college shenanigans. i think atlas is a fantastic character and they add so much to the story. i think they're one of the best non li characters pb has ever written.
idr if it was supposed to get a book three or not? i mean like i wish it would have, and they way it left off it could have gone either way. like with the way they introduced the high attuned and the language they used to describe the last chapter it seemed like they had an idea. but the way it ended with atlas and their mom was so rushed and contradicted gemma's exit by bringing alma back. my guess is that book three might have gotten canceled while they were writing it or while it was airing even so they had to pivot. it's honestly kinda weird that it ended where it with it only being their sophomore year.
as far as the lis go, it proved to me how much more i enjoy the multi-li and non customizable li format. i love the pend pals dynamic as well, and how there is no default best friend female li. in book one, i think it's pretty balanced between all of the lis (except aster but she does become an li much later.) book two however........ now i am a beckettmancer and he is one of my top five lis of all time BUT...... he legitimately has a special diamond scene almost every chapter where i don't think aster even got one. it was truly insane. there were a lot of opportunities to pick who you wanted to spend time with though which was nice branching. but if you are not a beckettmancer i can't imagine how unbearable all of the scenes would be lmao. i rmr at the time how much everyone fucking hated him

text transcription:
Many springs ago, I perceived a sea of flowers upon a lake. I thought to myself that those fleeting colors held indescribable beauty.
The next time I perceived those colors was many years later, when the medic’s tent had blinded me to all but red. The radiance of that shining star was lost on my eyes.
Now, my eyes no longer perceive the subtleties in the colors around me.
But I am content.
For I can now see the most brilliant colors in my universe.
anyways yeah why did they fucking do that to jiaoqiu bro
the planning for this experimentalish comic is under keep reading

For my birthday... read my webcomic! It's literally free! (Unless you want books. Those are not free)
It's beautiful, it's gentle, it's funny, they're canonically t4t and gay... And it's about time traveling vampires solving supernatural mysteries!
I've spent thousands of hours writing and drawing it, and it's really good! I'm not biased!
It's on hiatus right now and coming back in 2 months, so it's the perfect time to get caught up
