I got worried when I found out the French Revolution features heavily in it as opposed to just being in background like the original game, given how used I am to the typical “this is Literally Animal Farm” shitlib plotline is (Hello Bioshock Infinite). I’d rather watch my nostalgia-bait anime vampire slop without rolling my eyes every five minutes.
Not to say I don’t have other concerns about the quality of the show (nothing to do with Gamers™️ seething about the POC characters in it).
Even then while her revolutionary ideals can be seen as childish, the only people that critique her in show are the villains who are basically not sympathetic at all.
True, but I think it's a flaw (not a huge one) that none of the main heroic characters openly agree or expand on the themes. It's good, but I sense it's from the writers not wanting to rock the boat too hard, or executive meddling keeping the themes less explicit.
