I don't know what happened to the storyline, but if it wasn't axed, it was certainly overhauled and rewritten. The earlier chapters really made it seem like we were going to meet each Princess and King's Branch as our characters grew and developed. It's absolutely crazy to me that the most recent chapter decided "nah, 10 of the princesses-branch duos have already been defeated offscreen, don't even worry about them and all the different fairytale interpretations we could have shown you. No sir, it's just this one terrible guy and his milk-toast girlfriend." Like, beyond Mikel and Rapunzel reuniting, what am I even supposed to be invested in anymore?
