This was a very confusing special episode to watch. The recap of the series was so long that I started to think I was just watching a quick overview of the entire show all over again.

The story made no sense at all. It suddenly shifted to the height of the COVID-19 pandemic, and the two boys were just living somewhere else even though they should have been in school. No one in the story seemed to have any common sense, like reporting the fact that the boys had stopped attending classes. There were also random shootings by military and SWAT officers that felt out of place. And the dad of Hero just being power hungry, like i get that those situation happen in different countries but he was just getting worse, and it just started pissing me off.

But what annoyed me the most, however, was the total lack of character development. Usually, a special episode shows the characters getting married or living 'happily ever after,' but this just repeated the same problems from the series without offering any solutions or a satisfying ending.
