This was a kinda sweet little series about someone reconnecting with their guardian angel.
There is a questionable side to Angel Gabby's morality, but with how the videos present it, she did kinda seem justified for what she did.
This is the kind of series where it feels like it was meant to stop, but then it just kept going despite already having a pretty nice ending. The Easter Tape and onwards felt unnecessary to me.
Maybe Zag is hiding something fishy, but so far Jonah's constant distrust towards him just comes off as annoying.
I thought it was weird how Case 2 onwards, Francis suddenly has the agency to properly respond to Zag and Jonah.
For what I heard was an analog horror series, there was barely anything in this that seemed to even try to be scary. The only thing I thought was remotely spooky was the music, but I'm pretty sure that was canonically added by the protagonist (Jonah) which makes it lose a lot of weight to me.
I don't really mind that it wasn't scary though. If anything, it's probably best for the story that the series isn't scary.
One last complaint, it came out of nowhere to me how Case 6 cruxes on tons of kids from around the world watching Jonah's 24/7 Twitch stream of Angel Hare. If that was established beforehand, then I must've missed it.
To end on high notes, the animation and general artstyle was really cute, the writing was mostly pretty good, and the voice acting was well done.
I also thought there were some neat ideas on how TV characters exist through broadcasting.
