Episode 6: Anguish and Anarchy
•
Jas and Sarah
We weren’t big fans of Children of Anguish and Anarchy, but we gave it a fair shot. In this episode, we break down the final installment’s tangled plot, heavy-handed themes, and emotional whiplash. Zélie’s journey is epic, but the pacing and payoff left us more puzzled than pumped. Still, there’s plenty to unpack—from magical politics to messy alliances. Tune in for a light critique with love for the world, if not the ending.
