An incomplete list of things wrong with Kipo S3

What the fuck do you mean it’s been months???? The first season took place over ten days, the second about that same amount or less, yet we’re supposed to believe that people who can accomplish that much in that little time got nothing done for months????? That scarlemagne was in a glass cage with no bed or toilet, not visited by anyone but kipo, FOR MONTHS????? That Emilia and co somehow was able to keep a cruise ship operating and feed at least a hundred humans on it without being noticed FOR MONTHS?????

Benson is apparently the cooking guy now instead of being the music guy, the thing we’ve had two seasons of development for, which much of his character and relationships are centered on, you know the thing which mulholland saw was his greatest fantasy. Nope! He’s the food guy now.

Now that jamacks arc is “done” (because the creators say it is) he’ll never have a serious moment again unless it’s to show that Kipo Is Savior

Both kipos parents are around, the kids are in a village full of adults, and yet a 13 year old is still considered and encouraged to be the leader in a fight that is openly known to be against eugenicists who want her dead

Completely unnecessary back story about Emilia. We already know that she’s a eugenicist, a philosophy inherently tied up in white supremacy, and that she’s 100% down to murder children. We don’t need a backstory about her having an also eugenicist dad and gay sensitive brother who she murders to support her agenda. It’s wholly unnecessary.

All the post season talk about Emilia feeling guilt over murdering her brother is 1) bullshit artistically and 2) completely something the character would not feel because she’s set up to represent everything horrid about eugenicists. She wouldn’t feel guilt over killing her brother because she would see him as having either been a threat himself or having already been corrupted by mutes, in which case she would just blame mutes for his death.

Song was not asked if she wanted to become human again immediately, and that’s an important question since it means that she can never be her mute self again. This is another example of the show falling off the train of saying humans and mutes are equal because whenever it does have to choose between a human and mute- they chose the human.

Songs recovery to having a human body again goes way too quickly, basically all just brushed over so that she can become just “kipos mom” instead of her own character

Songs relationship with scarlemagne is also given far less weight than kipos in s3 or than Leo’s was in s2, despite the fact that song spent just as much time raising him as Leo did and knew him much better than she knew kipo. For a variety of reasons song would likely feel closer to scarl than she does to kipo, at least at the beginning of the season, and that should have been featured.

Scarlemagne s characterization just went way off, possibly because he was locked in a glass box for months, you know, like when he was imprisoned as an adolescent

Narwhal horns are their teeth, I know these are mutes but come on. Don’t be cowards, put the horns where they belong.

Among the things which are clearly done for plot convenience but fall apart the second you remember anything from a previous season: the “cure” really shouldn’t have worked on song in the first place. She became a mute due to the same mutagen which affected scarl and kipo, and it’s the mutagens signature within kipos dna which allowed Emilia to make the “cure”. Kipos dna itself isn’t a cure or the code or anything, and if they said it is in the show I will shove my entire biology degree down the throat of whoever’s idea that line was. The cure has to be based on the mutagen, a mutagen which created the mutes of kipo, scarl, and song, and therefore all three of them should be immune to it.

There will be more but I gotta stop now before I ruin my whole bath with terrible-plot induced rage
