Thank you! I was so pissed at the end of Last Twilight and you nailed it in your post!
The number of times I swore at the last two episodes. I'm so angry, as a person with a disability, so pissed. I'm pissed at all of it, but that part engages me. So much that I'm having a hard time saying anything smart. They did such a good job at so many things but those last two chapters were so upsetting on so many levels.
We can be happy, content, and satisfied in our lives, with a disability. We don't have to be "cured". I understand it's what Day wanted but, it made the whole show fall down and feel empty and pointless.
And the whole relationship stuff at the end was so pointless and not well written in my opinion. Most of it made no sense. You said it perfectly in your post. All of it. So thank you. 💜
Hi Anon!
I wanted to answer this a long time ago. I am very sorry it took me so long 🌼
I saw so many different posts about the ending and of course some of them were really praising and loving the ending (which is totally fine for me by the way). At some point I was unsure, if my words were too harsh. I mean, I love critical reviews about stuff, also about stuff I enjoy and love, but I still was thinking if I was too critical. This here, this ask made me realise that it wasn't too harsh and even if there were just you and me, who think this way, it is a valid opinion. Thank you so much for reaching out!
I couldn't go back to Last Twilight til now. I still feel a pain in the heart thinking about the ending. I loved the series so much, but with every comment, with every thought about how much Mhok was giving up for Day, to make him happy, without Day considering Mhok's feelings and their value, it just hurt. And I still feel pain thinking about the lost message, the fact, that Day couldn't see himself as "normal" or "whole" without his eye-sight. I guess it was the fact, that is wasn't talked about anymore. We saw him thriving and having a fullfilled life without the ability to see. And it looked as if he was happy. I guess it would be helpful if we could have seen a discussion about this whole eye donation thing, to understand that this is still something he was going for. But the better message in the end would have been, if he could be thriving without this surgery.
And it could have helped if we could have seen Mhok's journey in those three years? Does he overcome his trauma? Would he become this dependent again? Does he made friends? Could he live his life to the fullest? What was he thinking? How many times did he reach out to Day and never got a reply, never got anything in return? Why did he choose to go after him, after all this time and after all the hurt? How did he overcome the hurt? And how did he manage to forgive him. And why the fuck did he need to thank Day for the heartbreak and pain he were going through? How the fuck could he thank him for choosing for him, without talking with him, without considering that Mhok has an own opinion and is his own person with his own thoughts and backstory? How the fuck? ... Guess I am still angry...
There was so much pontential and they just blew it.
I didn't want to rant again 😅🙈 Sorry!
Thank you so much for reaching out and telling me about your thoughts! 🤍
