For some reason, the way the humor hits and the talk of archetypes makes me think of Ouran Host Club vibes. Which I'm here for!

First time I tried this I dropped it episode 1. But lately I've been looking for silly, fun shows and Viki was recommending it. So I gave it a new try and it hit the spot.

Proof that sometimes you need to be in the right space to watch something.

Pacing and story really suffered in second half.

ML gave some of the sweetest looks to FL and I would like to see him as a lead in more things.

I liked the friendship of the FL and 2FL.

Zhang Wan Yi got to be even more love dovey than his recent stuff so I liked that!

The FL however... I'm not sure if it was the actress or director (*probably both*) but I felt she lacked subtlety. She was clever and demure during regular times but any time she was riled up she jumped to full on yelling. I felt there could have been a better way of laying out why she was fighting for justice with all her logic and evidence and escalate to yelling. When you jump right to yelling I dont blame people for being like "why is our sweet girl a harpy? I have done nothing to deserve this?!"

I hope that made sense.

Anywho, totally fine show but nothing fresh or unique to stand out.

Yay! Thanks for sharing good news!

20 was where I started to get frustrated about where some things were going. But I feel like it got back on track around 25ish? Also I loved the 2nd CP

Yeah i think that was a tricky translation thing

I thought Vengo Gao looked like he had fun and was relaxed making this. This is a solid, fun swashbuckling type adventure. It doesn't really get bogged down on side stories either. Everything had a purpose and made for a straightforward show.

Sex. She was asking about if he meant the night in general should be fine or if IT (*the sex*) would be fine. YS basically answered sex but didn't know that was what he was saying.

They seemed to keep their dreamworld memories and wanted to cosplay as YS and RSK in the real world so YS and RSK could have a wedding portrait.

I agree! It was nothing new but i thought it was well done!

Quirky, dark art film that is a perfect change of pace 👌

To be clear, they are not half siblings. No shared parents by blood between any of the kids.

So simple but beautifully done! I love the kids and how hard the teachers try to be supportive.

I thought the second couple FL was creepy. She isn't old but she started very into scary cougar territory.

This had a lot of potential but the story and editing totally fell apart around ep. 25.

Some fun characters and romance but unfortunately I would say it is ok to skip.

Nevermind. They started throwing dates around and this is firmly supposed to he Tang. Always keep learning!

This was stupid and silly and was exactly what I was looking for! I wanted something light in the background while I crochet.

If this had been my first 2000s Taiwanese drama, I'm not sure I would have ejoyed it as much. But since I did see Meteor Garden and Devil Beside You first, I was able to appreciate My Lucky Star. I could deal with the stupid misunderstandings and be patient to see how things work out. This was somewhat more endearing to me and I think my favorite of the 3 old school dramas.

I recently finished the original Taiwanese version and definitely agree it is more balanced and wholesome.
