3 eps so far. Is the main conflict in this show basically the emperor being awful and all the palace politics and power struggles with the officials? I’m kinda tired of this kind of plot, especially the evil emperor thing. It feels really repetitive, so I’m not sure if I should keep watching.
I lost interest when Nobu started talking about honor in war and getting angry at people for being happy during it. I’ve known someone who died in a war, and there’s nothing admirable about that. It just made the protagonist hard to root for. The scene where Ranko breaks down crying while Nobu keeps talking about it was the moment I completely dropped the show. Ohisama handled the wartime period much better, especially during the part where the protagonist works as a teacher.
I’ve watched a few episodes. This isn’t going to turn into a chaotic investigation mixed with repetitive palace drama, and then in the end the real culprit is the emperor again… right?
The story itself is fine and fairly engaging. It’s enjoyable enough to follow, and the fight scenes are solid.
That said, I didn’t find it funny at all. I’m not even sure if it’s trying to be comedy, but nothing landed for me.
The female characters are especially boring, the whole “every man is scared of his wife” trope is tired as hell. Nam Yeon in particular is extremely irritating
Did I miss something? The ML barely does anything, just keeps talking about supernatural stuff. He helps look up some info, but it’s hardly important. Even when they’re about to lose the house, he’s still there playing games lmao. Inugashira pretty much does everything.
What a waste of screentime every eps!!!that ma jin surely a relative of the writer..or else how the hell a sensible…
You mean the latest ep right? Is he still an asshole, nothing in the story been handled? No fresh air in the business part? If it keeps failing like this, I’ll just wait until it’s finished and watch it later.
Damn I’ve been watching up to ep 4 and put it on hold, planning to binge until the happy part. But after reading the comments about Majin i just can’t deal with the stress right now, guess I’ll have to wait another week TT. (Hope the story doesn’t have big problems every ep)

"I should’ve kicked him out while I could" and his squeaky peep-peep shoes made it even funnier lol

Shame it’s not gonna happen.
