Surprise! a good second season
It’s rare to find a show where the second season is actually good. Most of the time, I feel like season twos are lacking, made only because the first season got a lot of attention, so they are usually made with a weak story. But this one is the opposite imo. It genuinely feels like they put effort into the plot. There’s an actual story to follow, not just filler, fanservice, or made for product placements. Plus, the main couple has great chemistry. I did like it, This show is underrated, and I definitely recommend it.Was this review helpful to you?

good games but nothing make sense
-if you are here for the games you will be happy-if you are here for the plot you might feel pissed
-if you are here for both you might have mixed reactions like me
i enjoyed the games, so Id give it around a 7.5 or 8, but the plot felt messy and a lot of things dont make sense. Banda and Ryuji’s behaviors, for example. The final episode pissed me off, i felt like they could have just won the games and gone home instead of adding so much extra drama which doesnt make sense anyway. they keep hinting at American versions when an Asian show get successful, first in Squid Game S3 and now in Alice in Borderland S3, which felt unnecessary and a turn off. And both even included a baby, which is overused for sympathy. It almost makes me wonder if both teams had a talk or a deal to both include those events
the good point is that at least this s3 is better than squid game s3

not bad not great
this is a short bl, with low budget so i dived in with no high expectations.. it wasnt bad but not wow in the same time which is expected, it was ok , its an AI story with a realistic ending ^^ some people started to seek AI as a company, a buddy or even started to get more attached to it so i feel like the story is kind of realistic ,is it something healthy to consider AI like a human? obviously nofor a short bl at least it had a story and i was mostly amused not bored so thats a good point

not bad but also not good
this is one of series that has a good start so the first eps were good, later on it starts to drag and they involved a clichey issue, the "lets include a woman villain trying to get between the two" and dont forget this show airs one ep per week with a screentime of 20 mins, what im saying the schedule doesnt help to easy up the audience frustration but they also include a frustrating, overdone and forced issue to create some drama which make people more frustratedoverall:
plot not good
actors look cute:Min U is adorable and its the reason why i continued watching
it probably would feel better for future audience as they can bing watch the whole show in one day rather than getting frustrated waiting then they get more frustrated by the events that happen in the show

something different but interesting
im honestly into watching different, unique plots esp when its done "well", this one is done well, so if you dont feel weirded out about men harem, ranks etc ,you can check ita movie made in 2010 but still interesting and good enough to watch in 2025
the only thing i didnt like is the ml's hairstyle lol but im mostly amused by it XD

this is good
i started this series with low expectations but it turned out much better than i expected, it wasnt just about pregnancy or the rare cases that it happened to guys, its about struggles of being different and dealing with people's prejudges and the unecessary hate; this one is so heartmoving and has a beautiful life messagei recommend it to you if you feel that you are openminded enough to check it

what did i watch?
i mean reading the sypnosis i had an idea, but ngl this felt so weird, girls and guys reversed? ok, a guy is the one who get period? ok, and he is the one who get pregnant? ok but it feels off probably because it doesnt help that the girl was manipulating him (at least 2 times in those 9 mins movie) into not wearing condom and if he refuses to sleep with her then she says he doesnt love her, like "you dont love me" etc so he give up ,which feels like a red flag to me, its disturbing that his gf keep pressuring him into things he doesnt want to do and he was crying scared that he got pregnant ,a very weird short movieWas this review helpful to you?

cute
this movie is kind of cute even if is old, without a high budget, still it was entertaining to watch and has a plotit is bordering between the line of friendship and love, if you are looking for intimate scenes its not for you
the ending is hinting at them getting together, the moment when you let go of deceiving anyone and stop acting, the moment when you forgive and open a new page with someone its the moment when you can truelly open your heart ^^

this is underrated
this series is overall good, the only reason why its underrated is probably because people tend to prefer light fluffy series over messy and toxic relationships ,this series has a dark side and it talks about rich people and their bs lolthe good points is that it is entertaining, didnt feel like there is filler scenes but i also was curious about the plot like where is it going until the end and there was side bl couple which i was curiousabout how it will end for them:
Matt and Pitch's relationship wasnt a green flag for sure but i wished that Pitch fight for Matt the way that Matt was fighting for their love the whole series,i wanted him to make a move ,to fight back harder ,it felt like Matt is doing all the work for both of them but the ending was satisfying for them so im happy
id recommend this one if you are into mature series with "mystery, drama ,thriller" vibe

not great but also not bad, watchable
so i will start with what i disliked then go back to what i likeddisliked:
-the chemistry, idk they do look awkward together
-im not a fan of the ending, i dont like when they get together at the last minute as i want to see their lives and issues as a couple and how they make up
-someone got away with r*pe so easily
-Fujisawa's reason for holding back and not loving the ml properly wasnt convincing to me
what i liked:
-the plot does look interesting and mostly realistic
- the characters look more human, i like watching gray characters even if its the mls, no one is perfect they dont have to be either white or black nor a hero or villain
-i was thinking that the actor Ito Asahi looked familiar to me so it turned out he acted in A Man Who Defies the World of BL, thats a pleasant surprise
*notes: if you are planning to watch , be aware that there is miscommunication, r*pe, cheating, this is a mature serie that mention/hint those topics

the reality can be sad
this is a sad movie so obviously not everyone would want to watch it, this is not a sweet fluffy love storyso i have been delaying watching for a while but today i thought "you know what, i will watch" was ready to get emotionally wrecked XD
its sad but life is not always happy, The love scene between the two male leads is beautiful and good
in the second part of the movie there is disturbing scenes (not everyone can watch) i had to peek and cover my eyes a bit lol but i find this movie beautiful and mesmerising

a good revenge story
having a second chance to change your path and your life choices, and for the better. how amazing it will be if we all can do that right? with realistic situations,friends like Soo Min do exist in real life and it can be less severe but still..while yes they shoudnt be called a friend but you know there is those type of people who are close to you pretending that they care about you but they are just jealous and wanting to drain your happiness, the plot is interesting, and i loved the chemistry btw the mls, the only thing i disliked is the appearance of O Yu Ra, her character was not only so annoying but the acting was poor and her appearance made the show wilder (about the events) but thankfully its just the few last eps, in general i loved itWas this review helpful to you?

overall its good
this season is not bad, but if we compare it to s1 of course it loses, s1 was perfect i had nothing to complain about, no flaws imo.this season is not great but not bad, i gave it a good rating because its still good, its just that i feel like its a bit messy,and dragging, i loved the first half more than the second half
i want to mention what i didnt like:
i feel that there is a lot of plotholes, i have seen some comments and its not only me who think that the start of this season didnt make sense why the director deleted Pang's memories but left wave and everyone else , they will of course make him remember his memories back ,no? or maybe it wasnt explained well im not sure but i see that im not the only one confused about that.
then we had one ep full of one flashback and it felt like too much time was wasted, they also introduced the minister and Darin as if they are important characters, but they suddenly disappeared? hello?
Pang , i love him but the whole show the missions were failure after failure, he refused the director's help to make his potential stronger but in the end he was able to control the director? im sorry but i wasnt convinced, i mean if they showed him caring to make his potential stronger id be convinced, but he was like "no i cant" while the director has his power at full capacity but because of a moment of weakness he lost it all? its not that i want him to win, no of course i want Pang to win ,but maybe if the events were more convincing it could have been better, it also doesnt look like Pang have the strongest potiential even when they kept mentionning that, its Grace who have the best one, without her they werent about to win. even his power of controlling minds doesnt work on her
i want to say i wish we got the story of the twins, we got one for almost all the main characters but not the twins (just a wish)
i want to also say i did love the ending tho, that they will not lose their power unless they want to, that they can choose btw an ordinary life or not, they have a choice
the main thing i loved about this season is Pang and Wave friendship, it was so good i almost started to think that they maybe have a crush on each others
if there is more shows like this one, supernatural etc (with a good plot) dont hesitate to recommend to me, i like shows that have a story like this one, and thank you
