About
If you enjoy intense, philosophical historical drama where the central “hero” is an idea rather than one lead, this may click, especially if you liked Vinland Saga; Not for you if torture, bleak turns, or shifting casts frustrate you.
Pros: bold, idea-driven story; thought-provoking themes; strong tension | Cons: many characters to track; uneven pacing between arcs; disturbing violence at times
