Makes me feel understood

I love the way they weave what is typically a sci-fi premise (robots taking over the world) into an otherwise completely fantasy setting. Good lore, good characters, and good gay moments.

I think it could be done better in a work that has greater focus on that topic, but it was still quite nice and makes me feel understood.
