This season feels more like a filler...to show that the monsters are humens too
A Season That Sets the Stage
This season of the drama was a bit slow. It felt necessary to move the story along, but it had clear issues with how fast things moved. Even so, it offered enough interesting parts to keep the main story going.
The best part of the season was the way it slowly showed that the "monsters" are also human. The show explored the difficult truth that these creatures are not simply evil, which blurred the lines between monster and person. This complex look at good and bad was a solid reward in the second half.
However, getting there was tough. The first half, which focused mostly on the people in the stadium, really struggled. I just didn't connect with those side characters, and their stories often felt like unnecessary filler that took attention away from the main mystery. Because of this, the first episodes were the weakest and easiest to lose interest in.
The show finally got exciting in the last few episodes, which were definitely the highlight. The main characters returned and took center stage, and their appearance was captivating. They delivered the action and emotional rush the series needed. That final scene was done very well and clearly set up the next season.
Overall, the season did what it needed to do: set up a huge finale. Even though the pacing was better at the end, and I missed the main leads for most of the run, the new themes and the strong ending make this season an okay, if uneven, watch. I'm ready to see how the story finally ends.
