Intriguing, uncomfortable, filthy.
I love the subtle tie ins between particular stories.
Main plot is bullshit though, requires huuuuuge suspension of disbelief
The plan never got out to public because? Only prisoners with life sentence could take part, but fellow inmates with short sentences sure must have heard from them and spread the rumors outside. Or was the plan so convoluted that it involved quietly disposing of anyone who knew?
Overall the system sounds like way too much effort and risk with too little reward. Organizing a whole-ass opera show with adopting girls, only to serve for a smokescreen for prison prostitution ring?

Which is a wonderful thing. After all the despair (with little glimmers of hope) that the series brought upon the characters, they get the well-deserved happy ending, going into the future with a new hope.

As for now, the story is quite captivating. It's still in an introductory stage - we might have a guess who the Four Knights are going to be, but it's not confirmed, so there's still a chance for some changes.
The way it's being connected with Seven Deadly Sins is quite good for now. In the beginning it's pretty vague how long has it been since the Holy War, the world seem to have changed a lot from the last part of the series. There's quite a shroud of mystery around main villain faction. What's their point? Why are they so fixated on their goal to ... |
