Querido amigo... (S02E06)

There were moments in this episode where I actually felt like something was happening for a change. It was a pleasant distraction from the unnecessarily long dialogues that could easily confuse viewers who haven't read the books. It's quite a paradox; if you haven't read the books, you might find yourself lost in the situation, but if you have, the twists might surprise you (or perhaps disappoint you). What really amused me was the talk of a timed detonation (even figuratively) - I wonder what's coming next. This episode also taught me that elves give birth to perfectly clean and dry babies (well, different species, different customs, I suppose). And, honestly, the way they push the multiracial casting so forcefully is starting to feel a bit ridiculous (or maybe just plain embarrassing...). 3*- (30/01/2022)

An excellent fight that gives a vague memory of the absolute peak of the first season in Blaviken. All this in a visually appealing design and in the exquisite interiors of a spiritual monastery. The rest is just more or less effective filler that sets the stage for the finale. But the preparation is getting too long, tedious and chatty. (15/01/2022)
