I don't really care for his game but in a league full of apathetic, spoiled adult men, it's obvious he gives a shit, that he's willing to out-everything everyone and that he ignites his teammates. He's fantastic for the association. Also, he's obviously worked his ass off on his offensive game.

There was a lot of obvious and understandable eye rolling about the final episode title, everyone assuming OK HUMANS ARE THE REAL MONSTERS.

Xenos as simple antagonists has been done a LOT and so the approach the series is taking is interesting as fuck to me.
26.09.2025 19:50 β π 2 π 0 π¬ 1 π 0Fans who have been consuming graphic novel Xenos have been used to seeing/imagining them in daylight for a while; and sure they thrive in dark spaces but ultimately a creature as refined for survival as a Xeno needs to be able to operate in the light as well.
26.09.2025 19:50 β π 1 π 0 π¬ 1 π 0I feel you but I also think that there's an interesting reality there - that most things that scare the shit out of us are severely reduced once a little daylight is applied. Why should Xenos be any different?
