![]() ![]() Disappointing, as the situation could have easily been used to drive the plot in an interesting direction.Īlso has a tendency to feature secondary characters that appear to be important, only to never be used for anything. Instead, Anno contrives situations to avoid the conflict and then quietly pretends like it was never there at all. This may be due to the unfortunate implications of the rules of the contest, which are so horrible I expected them to be part of the plot. A good example is the whole heart-stealing contest idea, which is central to early chapters, but fades away totally before the halfway point, never to re-surface. The old is dropped or handwaved away to make way for the new, awkwardly jammed into things. ![]() The problem being that transitions between any of these are handled very badly. First, it's about a fantastic contest, then about the main characters' friendship, then about love, then about.magical war!?
