YMMV / Touch (2012)

Go To

  • Jerkass Woobie: Calvin, he did kidnap a kid but he meant to send her back to her family eventually, was trying to save his brothers life, is never a Jerkass (despite the name of the trope), is willing to help the main characters eventually and has to go through losing just about everything by the end of the finale.
  • Moral Event Horizon: In the Season 2 episode "Eye to Eye," Guillermo goes into a church to confess his sins. When the priest goes to the police station with the intention of revealing what has happened, Guillermo follows him in and slits his throat with the Tree of Life knife. This after in the previous episode, Avram told him that deviating from his mission would reduce him to merely a "godless murderer."
  • Retroactive Recognition: Jake is now Bruce Wayne!
  • Second Season Downfall: The show was renewed after its first season but not its second.
  • They Wasted a Perfectly Good Character:
    • Clea, given her strong presence in season one and how she doesn’t even get a mention in season 2 despite getting limited closure in season 1.
    • Some of the other righteous 38 (an I Just Want to Be Normal woman who uses the numbers to be an architect, a baker who used the numbers to compose a beautiful piece of music and a man who became an army medic and saved lives with that knowledge) feel like they could have have been great supporting characters instead of Victims for Guillermo and a faulty AsterCorp drug respectively after just a few minutes of screen time.
