Losing of sense of purpose
I'll be honest. When I watched Episode 1, I wasn't hooked. But to be fair, I was distracted that day. LOL.
On a lighter note, I started appreciating the series more in Episode 2. Sea nailed his nerd role. I didn't see Sea at all. It was Cheewa all throughout! And Keen, too, did a good job with his role.
I love the friendship dynamics, especially when the group of nerds started bonding with Niran's circle. Some people might not find the humor funny, but if you're a fan of The Big Bang Theory, you'll get it. The jokes aren't meant to be understood that quickly because they're not your ordinary, petty jokes. You need to get the context to appreciate them.
What makes the series adorable, honestly, is Cheewa. His clinginess toward Narin and how straightforward he is? I LOVE IT! What do you mean we already got a straight-up confession in Episode 1? A genuine confession! 😭 And Cheewa has been consistent throughout the series. You might think he's "just" a nerd, but NO! THAT GUY HAS LINES TO THROW, AND HE KNOWS HOW TO SHAKE NIRAN'S WORLD. HAHAHAHA.
I do understand the feedback from people who find the series kind of boring, but you also have to understand that this is the plot of the series. Besides cutie Cheewa living in his own little world, the series also revolves around the depth of Niran's world. If you observe carefully, Niran is slowly losing his passion and, worse, his sense of purpose. That alone made me stay with the series and wonder what happened to him. Because you might see the daddy issues floating around, but what's beyond that? There's more to his character than just his relationship with his father, and I wanted to understand what was going on inside his head.
Then came Episodes 8 and 9, where it was revealed that Niran was on the brink of depression, slowly losing his purpose. I cried SO MUCH during that part. (If you know, you know.) 😭 So yeah, this isn't just your normal nerd-and-his-crush kind of story. The depth is there.
Honestly, the final episode wasn't that impactful for me. I wished I could have seen more. I don't even know exactly what I wanted to see, but I WANTED MORE. LOL. 😭 Maybe I just wasn't ready to let go of these characters yet, or maybe there were things I wanted the series to explore further. There is still room for improvement in how that depth is delivered.
And of course, a special mention to Cheewa's brother, Cheewin (Sea Tawinan)!
WE FINALLY GOT SEA BROTHERS, Y'ALL!!! 😭❤️ HAHAHAHA. This was such a fun little bonus.
