I feel like they were worried about the will they/won’t they cliche and decided to take them in a different direction but this has completely fizzled out that plot line and made Frenchie look like an insane person

It’s clear they had a clear idea of what they wanted to do with these two characters in season 1-2 but then were like fuck what do we do now after Kimiko got her revenge on SF I love these characters but if they aren’t working within the plot their characters arcs seem like filler most of the time.
