#they've been so rushed so far this season and it makes both ships feel kind of... disingenuous.

pov i am watching shadow and bone season 2
#they've changed SO much#like... i don't hate alllll of it#mal and alina in novyi zem was a nice touch i LOVED when they all rallied to protect her 😭#plus the way they met nikolai wasn't a terrible change#and a lot more smaller things#but like... mal's characterisation is so skewed#it feels like they've turned him into a total puppy dog rather than his own person with yknow thoughts and feelings#(to appease mal anti's no doubt but i don't care to get into THAT argument...)#not to mention him and alina???? why make them slow burn alllll of season 1 only to make them kiss first episode season 2#sort of same with Wylan and Jesper!#they've been so rushed so far this season and it makes both ships feel kind of... disingenuous.#don't get me started on the crooked kingdom plot because i really can't figure my feelings on that rn 💀#i have a hunch that they're including it now to use as a parallel back to it if they adapt the ACTUAL plot#so they can idk further the stakes i guess????#but if i'm to be totally honest#the shadow and bone writers aren't exactly leigh bardugo#ig this is sort of arse kissing but idc. they're really not on her level in terms of story telling skdjdhgsjak#because this is all over the place#shadow and bone spoilers#s&b spoilers#shadow and bone#i've decided not to binge the whole thing in one go and i'm going to watch the next four eps tomorrow so i hope things improve#but at this point i'm not ~that~ optimistic lmao
