This was a good episode but I have a feeling that the more I think about it the worse it will become. Right now I can only say one bad thing about it.

1. Remember when Salem raised an army and marched against the gods? Why did the gods feel they needed to destroy ALL of humanity. They could have just taken away Salem's immortality. Then she would die and she could be with Ozma.

I find it hard to believe that the gods were so invested in teaching Salem a lesson that they would kill everybody.

The army was clearly no threat to the gods. They could have dispearsed it via individual teleportation. Then without Salem and a unified command, the movement would fall apart. And if not then the gods can just kill the army. But don't kill everybody on earth.

Also, there are other things that Ozma could have tried. Altering human brain chemistry to reduce agression would create a meek, servile, and slave-like population but not one that would be prone to violence. You can also increase the rate of female births to male births as it has been shown that a surplus male population or culture of polygamy will create a lot of male incels and that a lot of male incels increase the chances of war, domestic terrorism, violence, and rape.

You can also put all 4 kingdoms into one city a la Attack on Titan and hope that the threat of the Grimm will unify the humans.

Or you can try Democratic Peace Theory and change all the kingdoms into democracies which rarely declare war on each other. It looks like this is the route that that the current ozma went.
