Review of Wonder Egg Priority: My Priority
MINOR SPOILER at the very end of my review. I loved the first 12 episodes of Wonder Egg Priority. Sure it got messy towards the end, sparring from horrible staff conditions and meeting deadlines, but I enjoyed basically everything about it. Hearing that they need time to get out a 13th (and potentially, final) episode out was not a huge deal. They can wrap up what they've done right? I ... I don't know man. I don't mind the recap. I know a ton of people will give them crap for it, but I enjoyed seeing all the girl's stories again, whatever. The rest though... I'll give them credit, they*really* went off the deep end, and said screw it what's better than a deep end? A DEEPER END!
It's hard to discuss what happened in this episode without basically spoiling the entire thing, but I'll try to wrap my opinions up nicely.
Going into this I thought we were going to get an hour long special wrapping up what eps 10-12 of WEP threw on us, and we'd get something fairly good. I wasn't expecting it to be the best thing ever, given the staff problems and everything.
What we got was more plot points. More loose ends. More... everything. Some things were.. resolved? It's hard to say honestly. I get what they did, but it's weird how they did it. I liked most of what they introduced. I think what's going to leave everyone sour is that they did this in something people presumed as the finale (and it might just be).
If this is how Wonder Egg Priority ends, I will be disappointed. I love the girls, I love the world, but my heart will ache for a worthy conclusion.
Given how it *did* end, however, I'm hopeful (copium) that we'll get something to wrap this up nicely. Who knows. I could totally see me changing my opinions on this special if they did.
