Ran out of steam
The first few episodes are creative and interesting but it went off the rails later on. The visuals are gorgeous throughout and Oaklanders will appreciate the love letter to the city. There are embedded cartoons that are really thought provoking. But the further along you get the story just stops making any sense and gets super confusing. There are many plotholes and nonsense. The plotline with the power company making money by cutting power is just nonsensical. The motivation and backstory of the parents is confusing. The last episode felt like they couldn't figure out how to shove their anticapitalist message into the plot so they just gave up and went on a long political diatribe.
