Demon Girl Episode 6

1/10 Truly atrocious. *face palm*

Well, I'm out. The shocking events of a certain character suddenly setting their person on fire seems quite poetic. As I watch the character burn I realized that this was, in my mind, what was happening to the entire show of Demon Girl. It was a sign from the show itself. This junk needs to be burned. Or at least I need to drop it. I held on to hope and my 3 year anticipation of this show.

Also, apparently demons mate for life. So You Tong is the third wheel who will never love another lady besides Qing Cheng. Qing Cheng will never be able to love You Tong since she's in love with Ming Xia. Many shows imply this with a love triangle. This one made it's magical setup into it. I hate it.

Xue Wu is an amazing character. Trapped in a bad show. Trapped in the same villainess role all strong women characters tend to fall into. She's amazing. The way she let down all those men pining for her at the start she WOULD get over Ming Xia and move on. Sure she has questionable morals. Clearly. With helping Ming Xia's mom shoplift and what she needs to do to keep her hospital going. (Though I think the hospital thing was smart.) I hate seeing amazing women like her trapped in such support roles.

At this point I can no longer curb my annoyance with Qing Cheng ignoring her mother-in-law's abuse. This goes beyond ignorance and nativity. If she's so smart she should react. Even if she's being kind. Who knows maybe her in law's abuse will finally off someone she loves. Either way Qing Cheng should be reacting. To the crazy things happening at the very least. Like magical wings and red eyes.

I've hit my limits. I wanted to stick around until things got demon good. But this is clearly a very poor love triangle mess. I have a sneaky suspicion that the real stuff I'm waiting for doesn't build up until near the end. I don't want to wait for that. Questions about demon wintering and where Qing Cheng's mother came back as a baby to don't even niggle me enough for this type of atrocious love story.

I'm out.
