Why were you expecting something in the first place? Doesn't sound to me like it's the fault of the show.
I thought the show was amazing. Very novel concept. Both sides don't need to be masterminds. I don't see how that would've been better. The deductions of one mastermind is enough for me to ride on. ๐
Because that's how storytelling works? If you don't expect anything from the story, you aren't invested into it and you aren't enjoying it.
I mean why were you expecting something beforehand? Not during. I wasn't expecting anything, and I still enjoyed the show for what it was. No need to add a second mastermind. What happened in the show was exciting, and I'm not so sure adding a second mastermind would've made it better. ๐คทโโ๏ธ
Because the first few episodes leads you to it. You get this cool main character who takes it upon himself to purge the world of those who can't be made responsible for their evil otherwise, and then you get the detective angle. It clearly tries to be Holmes Vs Moriarty type of thing, except with the opposite PoV. If you didn't get those expectations from the show itself and enjoyed it, good for you! It was a different experience for me, especially with how much praise I've heard about it beforehand
