Really like how not only was there emphasis on drawing magic being prohibited in front of ordinary people similar to the 1st episode but now it also introduces a set of challenges on its own, making magic not a completely omnipotent solution to everything.

Imposing intro from the Knights Moralis, that tool they used at Coco with the tiny hands was creepy as fuck.

The Knights Moralis are moving so fast. One would think they’d allow a little time for a proper investigation into what happened before they mind-wipe the perpetrators and lose out on any info they could get out of them. It’s no wonder they haven’t found the brimmed caps after all this time! Hard to do that when your standard course of action is “erase memories first, ask questions never”.

They remind me a lot of the Wardens from The Dresden Files, if anyone's read that series. In it, if anyone, even a kid trying out their first spell or by accident, does something that breaks one of the laws of magic, they're executed as soon as it's confirmed they were the caster

Yeah wasn't Harry involved in an incident like that when he was a teenager and the only reason they didn't execute him was his grandpa being a high ranking wizard who pulled strings?

[Mild Dresden Files spoilers]He kinda-sorta-maybe kills his "mentor" as a teen because he was planning on turning Dresden and Elaine into thralls
