Spoiler for boop:
I'm ready to bail after the most recent episode. I don't take very kindly to out-of-character behaviour or asking viewers to suspend more reality than you've asked them to previously. The second they tried to sell that you could fit a fully grown woman sewn into a horse uterus, I knew my love affair with the show was coming to an abrupt close.
That's the unrealism that broke the camel's back? That whole show is absurd. And the dialogue comes across as an hour's worth of those pretentious, pseudo-intellectual discussions on the nature of man from Neon Genesis Evangelion. Still, it creates a unique atmosphere that's engaging and unsettling, if at times goofy (much like Evangelion).
Spoiler for dude:
And turning the main character into a serial killer is a fun twist.
