random lunchtime FK observation on favorite season
Last week, I rewatched "Black Buddha," both parts, to check some canon. The episodes made me sad. The dialogue was thin. The themes were thin. The plots shed loose threads. The tone was -- albeit unintentionally! but from this end of history -- helpless, hopeless, foredoomed.
Then, on the weekend, I rewatched a handful of first season episodes, and they made me happy. "Dying to Know You." "False Witness." "Cherry Blossoms." "Hunters." The dialogue and themes were rich. The plots built up. The tone was full of energy and hope and possibility. They sparkled, bigger on the inside, in a way few series to this day can even approach.
To each her own, but first season FK is definitely a very good place for me, personally.
