Childhood's End
A demonic entity disguised as a scifi "adaptation" well it's a hell of a ride.

I enjoyed watching the whole series yet I still can't comprehend what was happening though I knew what it's happening. It feels like or it was like an attack to my psychological capacity. As if there's even sense on what I'm saying.

The first part had so much unanswered questions, well, the whole series did. Like what was their plan on the world, why were they there, why would they do all that. I don't want to say anything more because it will only spoil some major plots. But why the hell would they pick Richard as their so called "prophet" then just make him suffer for no reason?! He SUFFERED for NO REASON. I felt bad.

The second part weren't overwhelming since I've watched some parts of it on tiktok.

I won't really say anything else but there were so much unanswered questions. Like where were the children? What happened to them? What happened to the people? Did they just die altogether or just grew old? Did the children even grew old and died? What was the Overlord's plan? Just destroy the earth? Help them grow and live peacefully before they got destroyed?

I don't get what was the Overmind's role, just play as God?

I recommend watching this if you want your mind be played.
