Since Moonshadow is over, I’m hoping we’re done with this convo, but this post is for the people who kept complaining about Jay’s (& ElleJay’s) screen time. I took time to go through every single episode & code the timestamps where each character appears (including minor characters). I have the stats per episode if anybody requests (& methodology used if anyone wants), but this post is just for an overview. I haven’t had time to make charts so deal with the numbers (totals, accumulated for all 10 eps). Note for “average”, I excluded eps where the character has no appearance so it’s “average minutes per character per episode they appear in” rather than “average minutes per character across the entire series” Note: total hours coded for (across 10 eps) = 9:26:40 Average EP length (mean across 10 eps) = 0:56:40 Conclusion: despite Jay being announced as a main character, alongside Chan & Key, Jay had LESS THAN HALF of the screentime allotted to Chan & Key. Elle had roughly the same amount of screentime as Peach did. Personal interpretation: being mad at Jay for getting “too much screentime” is completely unfounded & not backed by data. Jay received less than half the sceentime as Chan & Key. The issues with ChanKey’s story & dialogue likely cannot be resolved with increased screentime since they already got more than double the amount of screentime as the 3rd main character & still fell short. Rather than blaming an actress for doing an exceptional job & a character for existing within the story, consider holding the writers to a higher standard. They had ample time to explore ChanKey’s relationship & build them a story the way they did ElleJay’s, but they ultimately failed. #MoonShadowSeries
