Our Take

Picking up from the previous episode, the season finale leans fully into the consequences of everything built up so far, delivering a climax driven more by inevitability than surprise. Light’s overwhelming power and meticulous preparation take center stage, emphasizing control, intimidation, and psychological pressure rather than prolonged spectacle. The episode frames his actions as the natural endpoint of betrayal and resentment, while also highlighting how desperation strips the antagonists of their masks, exposing their true colors when survival is on the line.

At the same time, the finale widens its scope beyond personal vengeance. What initially feels like a story fueled by anger gradually pivots toward systemic injustice, hinting at a larger ambition beneath the edge. The consequences of domination, prejudice, and unchecked authority are addressed in a way that suggests long-term change rather than short-term catharsis. While the power scaling remains exaggerated, the narrative at least attempts to ground it with costs and restraint, giving the resolution a sense of purpose instead of hollow triumph.

Overall, this was an unapologetically edgy revenge fantasy that surprisingly stuck the landing in places where it mattered. Despite pacing issues earlier in the season, the final stretch reframes the story with a stronger focus and clearer purpose, making the payoff more satisfying than expected. It’s not flawless, but it delivers conviction alongside spectacle, leaving a better aftertaste than most shows in this genre and hinting at deeper potential if Season 2 ever becomes a thing. I’d love to see where it goes somewhere down the line.
