I am of the same opinion. This episode seemed to me very long and very conventional. And I feel that in the last episode, Tian will keep leaving and finally stay 5 minutes at home and finally come back to the village.
It's a pity to end on such a conventional ending.

Yeah, I also wonder if Ruka is dead. It's not so obvious (but I think so). Anyway, everybody is completely creepy in this movie. Bwahahah. It's just a mess !

Can I suggest a good glass of wine with it ? it will be the best ^__^

They will certainly use the extras chapters of Pornographer and Mood Indigo but the story is based on the 3rd volume called Ponographer Playback too.

I just can't. I read the manga countless times and I always cry. And then, with this Director version, I cry again with this sublime end. The story is completed and it's so beautiful.

It's very classic, but I'm weak. I like the enemy to lover trope .
Cliché but so cute.

Yep, And it denotes even more with the music of the preview which is rather funny...Personally, I skip the opening song.

Indeed ! :-D

Ahahah I saw that! I was like "already"?
And I was not dreaming, he has put cream where I think ? Maybe it was butt-er cream...

An interesting point of view. I didn't think about it but it makes sense indeed.

I completely understand your point of view and I believe that the problem with this series is precisely the reactions of the characters who are not at the same level. Ton is extreme, as I said rude and caricatural, no doubt to make his homophobia pass more "easily" may I say. While the other characters are sometimes funny sometimes just normal and light which creates a general imbalance in the series.

Agreed ! People want realistic shows but when they do, they scream. So the characters are caricatures in TonHon but their behavior doesn't shock me. There are really people who are mysogines, homophobes and racists in real life. I have a friend who was in the closet for 10 years because he was afraid of his family's and friend's reaction.
And maybe Ton is gay, but he was forced to adopt this dense male behavior because he is afraid of his father's reaction; Would he rather be a caricature than accept what he is ? We'll see.

Exactly !

I agree with all assumptions. I also wonder if Tan could not be an undercover agent or something like that...

P'Klui is an insignificant character ine the book 1. And I think he's even not in the book 2 (if I remenber correctly). I don't know why he is in S2. Maybe to fill some episode ?

Ahah ! Sorry, I hadn't thought of that. In the novel, No and Kla are present, I didn't think No could be shipped with someone else or the story could change. Well, a change of more or less ... it doesn't seem that crazy to us ^^'

Techno has a brother named Technic (who played a big part in No's relationship with his BF Kengla)

I am pleasantly surprised by this 1st episode. It's like putting on a super comfy pair of slippers.
Jimmy's and Tommy's acting had really improved... The story makes sense and I appreciate that it doesn't go all over the place but that it's a real logical sequel to Why R U.
Production and editing are still good.
A real good time.

So refreshing! A very promising and captivating first episode. No unnecessary scenes. Tul has quite a charisma.
I had the feeling, however, that things were set up really quickly, but I didn't feel lost either.
The secondary characters are well defined, the technical means are there and the production is good. The filming location is just sublime.
I'm already hooked!
