Cour is irrelevant. A great story can be told in less than a cour, no problem. My personal problem is I hate partially developed characters that are tossed aside. Feels like a waste. I’d much rather have Sala a formless entity that Nao likes, not a designed character and stuff.
At any rate though I’d be very surprised if this was two cour, still. I also am not so quick to take a ‘but if’ as a counter argument, because of course my issue does lie in the view of this being a one cour show, so that goes without saying.
Say it’s one cour, then what? I’m right, right?
