For Life anon here, I 100% agree with what you said about Anya. I’m hoping if there’s a second season we get more of her because there are little glimpses of her being a supportive wife but then they get swept away so she can be a foil. :(

Yes! They keep on writing her as the foil, which is odd, she’s her wife. I don’t know if there’ll be a second season, this show has seemed to have passed under the radar, but for sure, I’d need to see more of Anya and just, understand what it is that Safiya sees in her, why she keeps forgiving her and giving her chances and thinks she has to make it up to her at times. I don’t think they’re doing an arc where Safiya is trapped in this abusive marriage, so at some point they’ve got tip the balance toward the supportive decent person and not an antagonist.
