Under ConTroll mainly follows conventional genre storytelling. The plot revolves around supernatural possession and redemption arcs, focusing on genre mechanics rather than challenging social hierarchies or diverse identities. The established fantasy-horror clichés, such as pursuing specific bloodlines and magical prisons, prioritize genre conventions over progressive narratives. The loss of ability to act for the female lead seems to serve the horror plot rather than critiquing gendered power dynamics.
