Sure. After I finish "Kimi wa petto"today or tomorrow. :)unbeliebubble:
This is becoming such a blast! Everyone in the club is getting into Buddy's show together. I can't contain my excitement!
The original must be very good.unbeliebubble:
I find it difficult to imagine anyone other than Matsumoto Jun embodying the character of Momo. He is truly a remarkable talent, and my admiration for him knows no bounds. He effortlessly brings to life the most adorable moments while also conveying deep, intense emotions with remarkable skill. It’s possible that my perspective is influenced by the fact that it was the initial version I experienced.

I am also exited to participate to the "watch party". How many episodes at a time?

I think that the original version is very good or because who would remake a flop???? Being my first watch. 2017 version is great. I already rated it 10. It is the first drama this year that I rated that high. So I am curious to watch the original. In the gif you provided "momo" is very mischievous. interesting :)
I am also exited to participate to the "watch party". How many episodes at a time?unbeliebubble:
We've completed just two episodes so far, but I believe it would be helpful for everyone to progress at their own speed, especially if they have packed schedules. Currently, Arclei and I are watching two episodes at a time. We share our thoughts while being careful not to reveal any spoilers, and then we discuss each other's insights. If we have time, we might watch the next episode together, but if anyone is lagging behind, we can always revisit each other's notes for those episodes.
who would remake a flop????unbeliebubble:
I briefly misunderstood your message and thought you were saying I called the 2017 version a flop. I was ready to say that I can't label it a flop since I haven't watched it yet, but then I realized you meant the original can't be considered a flop because it got a remake. LOL

Context is key! I won't go into details because I don't want to ruin the surprise for you. But yes, he truly is a mischievous and wonderfully affectionate person.

Thank you, I will watch with you. The pacing is good.
but then I realized you meant the original can't be considered a flop because it got a remake. LOLSimi_Tutu:
Exactly my thought : 100% understood me. I do think the original is so good that they remade it :)

I love him already *giggle*
I love it so much, it's like our little cozy corner on MDL.JojoOnDatBeat:

As a teen, I was totally anti-glasses, but now? I see them as just another fabulous accessory.

So, you’re just gonna hang back and watch us, huh? How cute! You already know how this is gonna play out. Go ahead, chime in with your two cents on our brilliant ideas! ;P
I'll keep this brief so we don't get too side-tracked, we can always move it to dms if you have more questions. (sorry for the delay, I was gonna reply yesterday but was feeling ill)Arclei:
When it comes to Notion, there's a pretty steep learning curve but once you get the hang of it, it's pretty easy. It's mostly about what works for you since you can customize things to fit your needs. I made all my own templates but I did start out with pre-made ones way back in the day (for my writing projects) so I unfortunately don't have many templates to share, but I can show you screenshots of my page and you can find templates online.
ohh will try using template and ask u in dms if i got some query thanks for the explanation btw
An Ancient Love Song EpisodeTwoSimi_Tutu:
- "Lu Yuan really said hurt my wife ... end your life" - we love a protective queen, or should I say empress XD
- "THESE ACTION SEQUENCES ARE SO FLUID 👏🏻🔥" - YESSSSSSS, they ATE!!
- "...suggests that Shen has had a significant impact on this timeline." - He's an idiot, so of course, xD jokes aside, he's very eager to get himself involved (like a moron), so yeah, I'm looking forward to what dumb stuff he gets himself into
- "she actually took the arrow instead?" - I KNOW, RIGHT? I accept that this is a fact in dramas by now... for angst or whatever, it just always goes like this 😭 They have the time to do anything else or, god forbid, the target idk, step away, but noooooo- take the arrow and die, why don't you?
- "Whose side are you on?" - Bro sus afffff- this might've been all one big act put together by the empress and the prime minister, or maybe I'm too used to nothing being what it seems xD Who knows?
- "her lying unaliveed in the book had me rolling" - Literallyyy, comedy gold right there, I tell u
- "if it turns out to be related to how many times he can go back in time" - I think you're predicting how it will unfold xD
- "Shen is applying super glue to a historical artifact" - No thoughts, head empty 😭 Who is trusting this man with historical ANYTHING, pls
- "what if the elderly woman at the stall is actually Lu Yuan?" - Okkkkkkkk, but why would that kinda make senseeeeee 👀👀
- "Lu Shi looking like a whole snack" - GOD DANG RIGHT, like good grief- why is bro built like that o///-///o
- "Wow, security is lax at this palace" - I KNOWWWW- and then in other dramas, even if the emperor himself wants to go somewhere, he cannot xD There's no in-between
- "stop playing we all know who’s really doing the heavy lifting here" - Bro needs to have his ego stroked so he doesn't defect to the other side xD Girl is doing everything and then some
Replying To Your Comments: Episode One!Simi_Tutu:
- "he picked out the ones where he looks like a top model" - Himbocore T_T He's been added to the Himbo list
- "her adopted son moved to overthrow her" - And I oop- 😭😭
- "about Marty's mom hitting on him" - Glad we all share trauma from that movie xD
Your Comments: Episode Two!Simi_Tutu:
- "We should definitely acknowledge his effort in trying to drown that one bandit" - You are SO right; bbg needs recognition too. He totally almost killed that one guy! Go him!
- "...Plus, the presence of weapons adds an extra layer of tension." - To all of that, I hardcore agree!! You nailed why I love em so much!
- "Wait, who's gonna kick the bucket?" - I ain't saying anything... but I believe the girl talking with him in ep 2 is the same maid from the empress in ep 1... yknow... the one with the mourning flower that Shen mentioned? T_T LIKE I HOPE NOT, BUT LIKE-
- "he's really doing it all for a stunning lady!" - A puppy malewife in denial. He'll come around eventually ;)
- "my attention span is shorter than a TikTok video, and history? Yeah, that was never my jam" - LMFAAAOO, I feel you xD I kinda trained myself to pay attention to details when watching Secret of Three Kingdoms 'cause otherwise I fear I would've lost interest by ep 5 with the amount of names and aliases and connections everyone has. I'll try and figure out what's going on and maybe help us both to understand it xD
- "Seriously, how did the Prime Minister not catch the sound of them gagging in the next room?" - BAHAHAHA, you're so riiiight!! They can hear the other's conversation perfectly, but the others can't hear them... uh-huh, seems legit xD
I can move on to the next two episodes, but I won’t be able to share my notes until the weekend since my schedule is full tomorrow. However, I can start watching the episode later in the eveningSimi_Tutu:
Up to you! Otherwise we can just keep it to 2 a week so the others can catch up as well ^^ But if you wanna make it 3 per week, I'm game!
Thank you for the recommendation. I happen to have selected it previously due to the engaging plot. Thank you for confirming my hunch.unbeliebubble:
Glad to be of service! :3
I am now watching "Kimi wa Petto" . It seems to be RR (on paper) because FL is a top notch journalist and ML is her pet (this part is very cute). However FL is a nerd socially not adapted and ML,who plays her "dog" momo is the only one with whom she feels confortable with. And ML is very intelligent and he helps her. So this is not so RR because in reality she is a "demsel in distress".unbeliebubble:
I always had a feeling with this drama that it was less RR than it initially appeared to be/could be. I noticed a lot of RR content seems to be role reversal but then with with like a traditional twist? If that makes sense? Not to get too deep into it either because god knows I have THOUGHTS and FEELINGs about the matter xD From what you're saying, it could so easily *be* vvvv RR so a shame that it doesn't quite deliver-
I must say, I'm very curious about this pet deal everyone keeps mentioning... xD
I an half way through and I love it so farunbeliebubble:
That is awesomeeeeee!! Definitely been on my PTW for a whiiile so I'll have to get around to this one sometime soon ^^ Maybe I'll use it for Japanese watch challenge... Now I just need to decide on which version to try out, though I can't seem to be able to find the 2003 version in good quality so I might just opt for the 2017 one
ML who seeks FL's acceptance before kissing her or touching herunbeliebubble:
WE LOVE TO SEE IIIITTTTT!!
Opening creditunbeliebubble:
Thanks for sharing, it looks so cuuuteee!! It's giving a lil bit of manic pixie dream boy which is always a treat (also I really dig the song, such a vibe)
Sure. After I finish "Kimi wa petto"today or tomorrow. :)unbeliebubble:
Take your time, we're still on ep 2 and you can always catch up ^^
This is becoming such a blast! Everyone in the club is getting into Buddy's show together. I can't contain my excitement!Simi_Tutu:
Me tooooooo!! That was such a good idea you had!
I already rated it 10. It is the first drama this year that I rated that highunbeliebubble:
Woooah, such high praise!!! :O That sounds very promising indeed!
Go ahead, chime in with your two cents on our brilliant ideas! ;PSimi_Tutu:
Yes, be our guide in these trying (but fun) times!!
ohh will try using template and ask u in dms if i got some query thanks for the explanation btwVEDANT:
Of courseeee, you're welcome! Good luck! ^^
Added an activities section to the index with the current buddy-watch drama and tweaked the rest of it a bit, feel free to let me know what y'all think. Thoughts and ideas are welcome and appreciated 👉👈
Added an activities section to the indexArclei:
Is it possible to add a section for non-RR-related buddy watches? if RR members are watching together? Currently, JojoOnDatBeat and I just started watching Tales of 1000 Stars together.
Also, maybe a section for currently airing dramas for each country that contain role reversal? I think it will help open up discussions in the group
P.S. It would be great to include a list of members participating in each buddy watch. This way, newcomers will know who to contact if they want to join in. It might also assist them in looking for notes on episodes they need to catch up on
Is it possible to add a section for non-RR-related buddy watches? if RR members are watching together?Simi_Tutu:
Hmmmm, the issue I see with this is that it might become a lot and possibly get too off-topic? 🤔 And I feel it will become difficult for me to be able to continuously update since it's not gonna be a club-specific activity, if that makes sense? But idk, if it's something y'all want, we can figure it out ^^ If this were a discord server, that's an instant yes but our resources here are limited T_T

Not a bad idea... Maybe also with some upcoming ones? 👀Y'all feel free to share what is hitting 'cause I mostly don't watch airing titles (tho ik of a few I can already add) xD

I was debating doing this but your are right! I'll add it ^^ So far it's you, unbeliebubble, and me, right?
Thanks for sharing your thoughts and ideas! <3 I appreciate it!
