Honestly I liked her plot and origin I just feel it should have been allowed to cook a bit longer and not be rushed out so quick, overall though yeah quite a bit of stuff is said instead of just shown in typical anime fashion.
Yeah that's a good way to put it. Its like, first episode introduces Richter and Maria you get to see them interact a little bit, some character motivation is provided but the story is moving along pretty smoothly. Then, shortly after Annette and Edouard are introduced we spend an entire episode telling you her life story. I just feel they could have drip fed that more, let us get to know the character more organically
Yeah, they know its gonna be shat out as one brick by netflix anyways so its not like they have to be anxious about leaving too much of a gap between episodes airing/releasing.
Exactly. Its just rough pacing for something you know people will be binging. I think their ideas are great and portraying colonialism and the french aristocracy as vampirism is cool but while I'm not finished yet and I'll reserve judgement, I'm getting the impression that the talent of the writers doesn't really match the ambition of the story they want to tell.

Elizabeth Bathory being the monster. I think that's disputed. Gilles De Rais or some such would have been betterThey wanted to have an evil queen. The art is Hella giving 2014 and it is amazing. Plus I am pretty sure they reuse design elements from sailor moon in her character
