Roy vs. Nex: How Long After Nabu’s Death Did They Debut?
Remember that Instagram post I shared last week? Responding to the part about Aisha/Roy being “too rushed”, one commenter said this: I agree with Roy. It was very rushed. Heck, it wasn’t even 10 episodes since Nabu died. Is that true? Did Roy really debut less than 10 episodes...
