God the more I watch of blood of Zeus the more unimpressed and irritated I am by anything around the mc.
First off, idk if I missed something, but why was the sword in some giant metal robot thing? Also, and this is most important, why the FUCK would the big sword they had been Herons entire mission to retrieve all season (for some reason) be pulled out and retrieved by Herons two travel mates instead of Heron himself?!?!?! He’s being squeezed to death and survived thanks to them but is he not the lead? Was retrieving the sword not HIS mission? When the Amazonian hands him the sword, it’s weird moment because like how weird for the mc to just be handed a sword others almost died for and he did nothing himself to obtain. What sort of hero’s journey is this?
Like literally this man just had things happening around and to him. You can’t have him see people dead and have this dramatic moment where he says he won’t die like them only for him to spend this entire season just having things done to him. Goes to his home and Zeus happened to make a secret basement with a holograms with instructions how convenient. He goes to visit his mothers grave and not only is human seraphim there for him to save (as he was told to do by Gaia lol) but so is this material he needs to locate the sword he needs for reasons. Again how convenient. Is out in the middle of the ocean and not only does a magical giant robot with the sword attack but it does so right where an Amazonian ship is sailing, FOR SOME FUCKING REASON, to pick them out of the water after the fight. HOW FUCKING CONVENIENT.
And like as an aside, why the fuck did the Amazonian straight ask why there was an Amazonian ship out where they were (indicating that it was weird they were there) only for a fight to break out and no answer to that weird fucking coincident? Like this is what I mean with this show. The writing is all off. Logically it would make sense for the heroes to find the ship, land and talk to the Amazonians, let the one with them reunite with her people, and then when the robot attacks I’m invested in the fight because it’s not just about getting the sword but also about keeping their new friends safe. It’s how you properly raise the stakes and build tension. Who the fuck is writing this show because all offense they suck and don’t seem to understand basic storytelling concepts. Like you know writing linearly and fucking have the protagonist fucking do something for himself instead of existing while the fucking plot happens around and to him!
