There is always something weird with MAME productions...

I'm divided with this show. While I enjoyed the largest part of the show, MAME does always something weired or sick in her stories. This time it's the parents who seems to have some deal to call their children property. This is so absurd, that I can't take it serious. If this part would not exist, it would be an excellent show. At least she gave the parallel world story in this series more depth compared to the novels.

I never had a doubt in my mind that the parallel worlds do exist in this series, That made this made this series interesting and intriguing. The only downside Cir had always act like a stalker to get to know about Phukan. He is not a stalker as we understand the word. He does watch him, but he does not invade his private space in any way, so I had no problem with that. The only problem of the whole story are the parents. They don't fit and they are not needed. That's why my rating about the story is so low, because it's not good. The rest of it was better than everything else Me Mind produced. I think both MLs did improve their acting, but Boss improved a lot. Also the side couple was very cute and I would not mind to see them in their own series. The chemistry was top-notch, as always and the MLs can kiss :) Cinematography was good, the OST was excellent.

So this time, I will ignore the bullshit parent storyline because overall I really enjoyed the show. It was more mature than expected, it had less cringy elements than most and it had a lot of fluff. But it's miles away from a 10 :)
