yea, your points are valid. I think this as a Chinese production is the pathfinder of the next cdrama craze: after…
Someone mentioned that the budget was actually low for China. Apparently the budget was about the same as The Next Prince's budget which was huge for Thailand but really small in general. So for comparison, assuming this person was right that would put the entire budget at around 3.5 million USD. For comparison a US tv show can range 3-15 million PER EPISODE. So the whole series literally has the budget of one US tv show episode. So, put that into perspective. That is a really small budget if she truly wanted it to stand out.
THISSSS! FINALLY SOMEONE WHO SAW WHAT I SAW EXACTLY AS I SAW IT! I am not the biggest Omegaverse fan on the planet…
I literally feel like me and you are the only two who saw this because scrolling through these comments everyone else is happy with what they saw and I'm over here like .... HAVE YOU EVER EVEN READ OMEGAVERSE?! OR HECK EVEN WATCHED PITBABE?! WHAT? WHAT? WHAT?! I feel like I am going crazy because not one person aside from you has mentioned the very, very wrongness of any of those episodes! I have heard that the show is following the book exactly, scene for scene basically, so, perhaps the book itself is poorly written if that is the case .... But I have to agree with you about the screenplay! Someone needed to write a better one! Because I feel like these characters are reading off a dinner menu, not building the tension and giving us something to react to!
You captured exactly what I was trying to say! Omegaverse always feel raw and wild, completely untamed and insane! I mean all of the people that sat in the comment section and complained at us about this existing all these months must be feeling pretty embarrassed right about now. Because this is far from 'toxic' 'rapey' 'porn' ect. whatever they were thinking it would be. First off, is it just me or do NONE of the characters even seem to be the least bit sexual at all?! Like, the most controversial part about Omegaverse (and the central key to making it work) is the characters always have high sex drives and are easily turned on, ect. Yet, these characters release pheromones and rather than getting turned on it seems like the characters actually just get weak and sick. Falling to the ground or whatever. That's something else they got wrong. Pheromones don't injure each other ... they fuel sex drives! I feel like they decided to cut all sexual stuff out of the characters natural states which is how we ended up with cardboard stiff actors & really really boring drawn out scenes.
OH GOD I COULD NOT WITH THE LONG SCENES AT THE CLUB! Unnecessary as hell!
And YES! Same with Pit Babe! I hate that they got the vibe right just to get pretty much everything else wrong! Though I blame the author for writing terrible novels not the screewriters in Pit Babe's case.
I am praying to the ABO GODS that they dumped three episodes on us in order to get past the filler episodes (info dump, ect) because why else is this the only time we get 3 episodes at once?! I really feel like they knew these episodes were boring & pointless and wanted them out of the way all at once! They didn't expect everyone to be so happy about them. I think they thought everyone would be annoyed like we are and hoped if they got them out of the way all at once it might do them a favor. At least that's what I feel like because honestly those three episodes it feels like nothing really happened in them. It was a whole lot of talking, only two kissing scenes which to me is wild for Omegaverse! Usually in the novels you have kissing and touching, groping, ect. all throughout from the start to the end! So, I think that too is why this doesn't feel like omegaverse!
All around this show is a hot mess so far! And from the sounds of it so are the novels if they are following them perfectly according to those who read the novels (I did not). But wow what a disappointment that of all the wonderful omegaverse novels out there this may be the only one we ever see adapted. >.>
I will also add in I spent almost all three episodes in complete confusion about what was even going on. So, to top it off they just had to adapt the most confusing omegaverse novels out there for the first ever omegaverse show! They are usually so straightforward and simple to understand! Like Pitbabe was. But this is like ....?
I wish the acting weren't so uneven. Some of the actors are great and others are stiff and almost amatuerish.…
THIS! I FELT THIS ON A REAL LEVEL! I know the other person said it's not about them but their parents, but stillllll, considering this show has made the entire plot ride on this dumb annoying competition, it feels like they're all just casually heading towards the competition like it's no big deal lol! I feel no urgency about it at all, either. I don't even care who wins it's just like eh >.>
It is diabolical that one character's last name is Shen and another is Sheng. It is not making episode one easy…
I was confused through most of the three episodes in general and I couldn't have told you anyone's name at all, so, it was definitely not the names that confused people. soivjhiosdviosdvs! I was just confused for two hours lol!
As long as it doesn’t go through the censorship boards. The recent ones have been produced from outside China,that’s…
You would think they would be smart and release it outside of china to at least make some money on it if a whole bunch of money was put into it. Who would throw their money away like that? What a waste >.>
Gao Tu my Shayla 🥺 I feel so much for him… from childhood he’s been taught to not show that hes a omega.…
He is literally the only character I care about. Still kinda annoyed that we only saw him really in episode one. I could care less about the two mains. Their storyline is boring af.
Maybe my hopes were too high? As a BL lover, fanfic reader, writer, and ABO enthusiast, I'm underwhelmed by this…
THISSSS! FINALLY SOMEONE WHO SAW WHAT I SAW EXACTLY AS I SAW IT! I am not the biggest Omegaverse fan on the planet but I have read quite a few novels about Omegaverse and the one thing that always stands out is that the characters are interesting layered and sexual. Very sexual! Omegaverse is a very rough edged and angsty genre but I am not feeling any of that in this show! It doesn't feel any different from a regular boy love drama aside from the pheromones! Another big big thing in Omegaverse is that most of the characters have a very high sex drive with plenty of sexual appetite, none of that has shown through at all in this series. Even Pit Babe did better on that front without being a 'true' Omegaverse show. They understood that omegaverse is sexual and angsty with high tension feeling to it.
While like you said the first of anything isn't usually right, I really really hope that this drama doesn't set the tone for every Omegaverse drama to follow! Because I will forever be annoyed! I have never seen Omegaverse novels throw information at us like this show is. Those long scenes were so annoying and boring! The stiffness was another thing I noticed too! Like no omegaverse is supposed to be so stiff and formal!!!!! The characters don't feel driven by their emotions like they are supposed to be! Nothing has felt urgent or enticing. The most urgency I felt was at the end of episode three. The very very end! That shouldn't be in an Omegaverse. It should feel exciting from the start. Ugh! I am so sad that this has had such a disappointing start!!!! I feel like I watched three episodes of pointless filler with no substance at all! I kinda see why they dropped these three at once, no one would have waited three weeks to get to the good part.
yea, your points are valid. I think this as a Chinese production is the pathfinder of the next cdrama craze: after…
You would think it would have been better considering she could have thrown whatever money was necessary to make it amazing from the start. But like someone else pointed out the budget was low end for a chinese drama despite her being a billionaire.
I’m definitely confused 😭 I can’t explain why but I am
It's confusing and boring. I love Omegaverse but I really hope this show doesn't set the tone for every omegaverse we get adapted after this considering its popularity because it doesn't have the omegaverse air at alllllll!
THIS! It doesn't feel like Omegaverse to me. It doesn't have the proper air for it. Finally someone says it it was boring!!!! I was literally confused and bored lol! Omegaverse is supposed to be enticing and quick paced. What are they doing?! iosjiovsjiovjsoivds!
I watched multiple times and still have no friggin clue. i've even read explanations and still couldn't tell you…
I'm so glad it's not just me! I thought I was just completely dumb! And this is coming from someone who loves Omegaverse already & reads it from time to time. So, I should be able to understand but ... yepp, nope.
Can someone tell me WHO is pretending who and what they actually are(I did watch the teaser too)
I watched multiple times and still have no friggin clue. i've even read explanations and still couldn't tell you who is who and what is what. I'm just living for the surprise at this point bahahahaha!
