Oof...
While I am glad it was the power of gay, and not hetero, to break the curse, it was very cliché and flat. Nothing new. Besides, I still see no "love" between them. Yes, they do have a clear crush (mostly lust tho) on each other, but that isn't deep love. And Aria continues to be toxic.

I actually kinda like Ghika (the villain), because she's honest. Sure, her r*ping a student isn't cool, but so did Ayakuza and everyone forgave her (bc she's one of the good guys, right).

And Yanyan not telling her best friend in one form and lover in another form, Khara, that she's able to transform into a human is just as bad as how Aria is treating Ichika. Seriously, Ichika & Khara should just end up together. They're treated the same by the people they love, while they love deeply and healthy – why not give them a happy ending? They're, like, made for each other.

Also, there are witches/vampires with magic abilities now here too?
