@Jens_Rasmussen @smugumin @Goalkeeper @WandererUber @themilkman You have to have some sympathetic elements to the central characters, or else the audience can't form any connection with them. There might be some psychopaths who'd genuinely like that kind of thing, but I've seen stories before with main characters who had zero redeeming value, and it generally falls flat. The essence of a tragic story is a character who starts from an understandable position and makes bad choices, and comes to a bad end.
If Coffin of Andy and Leyley ends with some upbeat ending about "they lived happily ever after" then I'll have to come back here and eat my words, but I don't think that's where they're going with it.
Also, troons and censors big mad, so part of my enjoyment of it is admittedly anchored in spite.
