This series started off amazing but now I'm just so annoyed with it. They keep adding layers and layers of powers for MC and his twin, first that refractive then blood attunement, and of course they're related to a god. Building up overpowered characters with eventual zero vunerabilities is just lazy storytelling. Essentially their only weakness (oh shocker) is themselves struggling to control said powers. Wish they would stick to Sun and Moon attunement, which in my opinion is already pretty strong compared to everyone else.

MC and his brother had zero chemistry. That "you're my brother so we must love each other because thats what brothers do" thing is cringey af.

This series had so much potential. I wish they had gone more towards Endless Summer direction. That story was terrific and genuine, and the true ending was the perfect swan song for the main character.
