When I first heard about this movie, I could NOT wait to watch it. So when I finally found it on Tubi, you best bet your girl was on it hella quick.... It did not take long at all to realize I had made a terrible mistake.
I HATE THIS MOVIE.
I wish I had never laid eyes on it. Which makes me feel weird because EVERYWHERE I look, people are going nuts and giving it 10 stars. Don't get me wrong, if I rated by just the acting, I would give it 10 stars. My hate has nothing to do with the characters but more with the storyline. As someone who battles with her own body image, this movie made me feel as worthless as I always feel.

I wish so much that I could say that I laughed and loved this movie so much and that others should watch it too... But it would be a lie, and if you've known me long enough, I tell it like it is. Even if it hurts.

The only thing I took from this movie is that unless you are skinny, you are unlovable. You're not beautiful. You are just replaceable trash to those around you. Again, this is just my thoughts, Which is why I'm not saying anyone sound watch this. Because I don't want others who battle with self image feel the way I do right now. I'm not saying everyone will feel the same. I'm sure others will love the hell out of this movie. I'm just throwing this out there..... in case.

I did love the main character though. She was ditzy and cute in her own way. I hate that she couldn't see the beauty in herself until she changed. I hate that she loved someone so much that only *saw* her when she was skinny. I adored her friend who was always there for her no matter what though. She deserved better. The friend and the dad were to cute. I want to say the dad was my favorite out of the whole thing. It broke my heart how he got treated though.

If it was up to me, my tags for this movie would be different but I followed what it is really labeled under. I found no romance or comedy in this movie. I laughed a few times but it was quickly cut short every time. I cried watching this movie more than anything.

If you ask me why I rated it 4 stars, it's purely for the actors. As I said, if I could I would give it 10 stars just for their acting. But for the movie itself.... I wish I could give it 0 stars. Not a fan of watching things that makes people seem like trash when they aren't. You can be skinny and be loved. You can be "fat" and be loved. You just have to find the person that loves YOU. You shouldn't have to change for anyone. Remember, no matter how you look, YOU ARE BEAUTIFUL!!!

Will forever be a favorite.

**Taken from my old review: 3/27/2020**

I CAN'T EVEN WITH THIS SHOWWWWW!!!!!!!
Has anyone seen my mind? It blew and I'm not sure where it landed. Nope, not blowing smoke. Totally honest. I admit I have seen a lot of Kdramas... Okay not A LOT - a lot... but I've seen my fair share so far. I must say this show... Had a lot of things that I haven't seen before when it comes to dramas. I'm not saying they haven't been in others, I'm just saying it's new to me and I haven't seen it before. Just a few examples: a openly gay actor who plays the gay guy (Hong Seok-cheon, I'm looking at you, boo!) to a transgender character, lets face it, that is taboo in a lot of places, hat's off to the writer and director to being open with it and actually showing some of the problems transgender people have to go through. There is so much more that just left me shook about this show and I loved it and want to say more but I don't want to give it away.

I loved all of the character developments! Holy crap! I don't think there was one character who didn't grow in one way or another... and by that I mean up or down. Some characters went to the dark side I never thought I'd see em go to. X_X

Now the only thing I didn't like about this show was the actor that played Toni. Oof I know that sounds terrible but I feel like they could have picked someone better to play him? He seemed so monotone and he just wasn't a very enjoyable character. I feel like he brought down a scene because he just fell flat. No matter what the scene was going though. Happy, sad, mad... I felt like a wall showed more expression... UNLESS that is how the character was supposed to be, I'll admit it here that I have not read the series it was based off of, I know I need to. I realize a lot can change thought wise when you read the book something is based off of... Unless it's Twilight. Kristen was the worst. BUT THAT'S A DIFFERENT STORY!! lol anyway What I'm trying to say is... I wish there was more to his character. Especially since his scenes were so little. That's just me though.

There aren't many things I have watched that as soon as I finish them, I instantly want to rewatch them. I think the last drama that evoked (invoked?) that feeling in me was Boys Over Flowers.. So for me to find another show that leaves me feeling like that is amazing. It's like a really good book that leaves you with a book hangover... This would be a drama hangover I guess? Haha!
As much as I wish I could rewatch this right now, I do need to finish Kingdom and the books I have been reading. Lol Goodness. X_X

If I could give this more than 10 stars, I would. There just aren't enough stars. From the setting to the actors to the acting, to the storyline... everything was amazing and whatever feeling you were meant to feel, trust me, you'll feel them.... Unless you are a robot. Lol

The beginning was off-putting but I'm glad I stuck around.

I don't know what it was that pulled me into watching this movie - because if I'm honest, the cover and information isn't very eye catching. But still, I guess there was something there, just not sure what. When I first started this movie, I wanted to cut it off. It made me so SO SO SO sick to my stomach, it was disgusting. But thankfully the worst part was over... I laugh as I say this because surely being taken and forced into a school with demons and being forced to marry a demon would be the worst... but compared to that start... you know what... It's all bad. Lol but good. I know I know... lol I promise I haven't lost my marbles. Hang in there.

I freaking hated Kaki. With a passion. Araki Hirofumi is a very beautiful man but I'm worried now I will only ever see him as asshole Kaki. It was to the point I wish I could jump through the TV and hit him with a iron skillet.
In that same breath I can say I didn't like Kanna either. The girl has ZERO fight in her. I would think you'd have SOME kind of reaction to fight your way out. But nope... she just keeps her head down and rolls with it. hgeiruhgeriuhr BRO! ARE YOU FOR REAL!?

It's crazy, they are both the main characters and I hate them both. Wanna know why I kept watching? I'll tell ya! IT WAS THE FREAKING FLOWER BOYS!!! Oh yes, I call them flower boys lol. Don't @ me! Reigi, Minaha, and Mitsuaki. The freaking guardians, bro. At this point I'm still like, can we just do away with Kaki and keep those three? They made the movie for me.

Don't come for me but wow the action in this movie was terrible but... BUUUUUTTTTTTT you end up being so into the movie you have the same reaction to if you were actually there and really seeing someone's face get kicked in.

You can tell this is a older movie the second you start watching it but lemme tell you it was so well done that you are so engrossed in it that you don't want to look away and honestly it's killing me to be there typing all of this when I could be on my happy way to watch the second movie. Best bet there will be a review for that one too.... I can only hope they didn't replace any of the actors. I hate when that happens X_X

I'm still excited so I know this review is a bit of a mess, but long story short... WATCH THIS MOVIE!!!

No. If I could rate this ZERO stars, I would!

I stopped watching 40 minutes in. Fuck this movie. It's trash.
I hated how they made it out that oh, he is wearing female clothes, so he must be gay.
No. That isn't how that works..
I HATE Momose so gosh damn bad, he makes me want to vomit. There was nothing good or cute or sweet about this character. He honestly had to be mental. Main point being, he sexually assaulted Yashiro every chance he got. Any time Yashiro would try to run away he would literally chase him down and then threaten to blackmail him. Dude is a sick son of a bitch!! Not to mention he keeps saying he isn't gay but fetishizes Yashiro in female clothing? Bro, just watch porn. -_-

We know little to nothing about Yashiro even 40 minutes in other than his safe space and freedom no longer exist because of Momose. PTSD, anyone? -_- I feel so bad for his character honestly. It's bullshit that your one go-to peace is fucked up because of a psycho.

I really wished this movie was cute and fluffy, but it wasn't. It's a nightmare That sadly people do have happen to them. SMH

So this is one of the rare shows that I actually finished and as soon as it was over, I started to rewatch it.
There is so much to say about this show yet I don't think there are enough words on this planet to cover all my feels!!!

I still have a lot of mixed feelings about this show. Not because it was bad, but maybe because of the pace? I know there was a need to build the tension but honestly, it kinda killed a lot of the feeling for me. Which is odd for me to say, I know. Mostly because I loved the hell out of this show.

When I first started it, I won't lie. I was asking myself more than a few times, "what the hell am I doing here? What am I watching? *WHY* am I watching it?!" only to very quickly be sucked into a weird black hole where I cancel every plan I ever made and stayed in front of the screen binge watching it. Lol

Gah I loved the actors in this show. I feel like I can't unsee them as their characters ever again. Lol

I think the main thing I didn't like was honestly the ending. It felt rushed all of a sudden and didn't make much sense. after I finished it the first time, I read other reviews and comments and I kinda see why they had to do that -- but I also don't. Like you built this whole show up for this moment and with the last few episodes it was kinda bullshit. I said what I said.

I wanted more from the ending and I know if I read the book, I'll see the *real* ending, but I feel like fans and even the actors were kinda ripped off and left with a lot more questions.

I have such a love hate relationship with Gu Xiang. She was super adorable but I completely hated how she treated Cheng Ling and Wei Ning. They were both these really sweet and amazing guys and she was a bitch to them. While she was "sassy" with a lot of others, she really was a straight up bitch to them most of the time and I never understood it. Okay, yeah, she grew up not around "people"; but she doesn't treat KeXing or Xu like that. So I really don't get it.

Also have a love hate relationship with Scorpion King... but I feel more bad for him than anything else, given his back story. I feel like he really could have been a great good guy had he not wanted his father's approval so much. How that man treated him was all kinds of fucked up.

There were so many characters that even now I couldn't even tell you how I felt about them but I will say that I demand a spinoff or a bonus episode showing us ChengLing's story about growing up. They really had us stressing and worried about this kid only for them to end it the way they did. Like hold up. Slow down. WHAT?! lol

Do Not Trust What You Hear

Not to be dramatic but I'm still sitting here looking at the screen like: O_O
I mean... how can I not be? I wanted to give this movie 10 stars so freaking bad!! It hurts to not give it 10 stars but I just have so many unanswered questions! And I want to rate it less than 8 stars because of that, but in complete honesty, I can't. This movie, even though it left me with tons of questions, was so so sooooo good!! If you have been a follower of mine for a while, you know I have a weak spot for anything horror. If it's horror and I get my hands on it, you know I have to see it. So when this bad boy popped up on my VIKI, you know I had to jump on it (though at this time VIKI still has it as "coming soon") that being said, I hunted down other places to watch it (and I included them in the description for those who want to watch it as well!)
This was a movie I just couldn't wait to see. I don't know if it was the cover or the description but I needed to watch it ASAP... who knows... maybe the Mimic was in my ear telling me to watch it. Dun dun dunnnnnn.

Can I talk about the acting for a minute? I haven't seen these actors before (to my knowledge) but I'll tell you, all the actors will stick with me. Even the ones who had tiny parts made a huge impact. When it comes to small parts I tend to forget someone fairly easy because they just don't deliver that "OOF!!" acting. But whoever cast these actors needs a raise... As so do the actors. Lol, They alone need 10 stars each.

As for the storyline, wow.... I couldn't look away for a second. I was hooked the moment it started playing and it captivating to say the least. Though I won't lie, I was really hoping it would explain more into the reason behind the happenings or tell a bit more of the lore. It gave us a bit of needed information but I feel like a lot of people won't understand unless they know the lore of Jangsan Tiger. And who doesn't know it? Me. Who is going to search it out? Right-o! .. Me again. Mainly because the gosh damn captivity it has over me! It feels kinda weird how drawn I feel to this... But YOLO! Haha okay that's beside the point, but still.

Watching this movie has cleared up a few things for me, I will never get over my fear of mirrors and I would probably follow a child into hell even if people are screaming at me to stop... Damn those maternal instincts.

*deep sigh* Here we go...
As I write this review, please know it's how I feel about it and I don't mean to make anyone mad with it. If I do, I'm sorry.

BUT HOLY HELL I HATED THIS SHOW! I think i kept watching for the subber. Lol I loved their excitement in sub notes they made during the show. The show itself kept me stressed and pissed off. Because you know... the basic, no woman is worthy of friendship and love unless she is "beautiful" and "popular". I admit I have seen my fair share of shows like this but for some reason, this one takes the cake. I guess mainly because even at the end the ML says she was like a dirty cat he found, bathed and only then was she beautiful. -- my guy, she is a fucking human with emotions.

"I don't know when I started having feelings" -- I know when; after she was dolled up and getting attention from other guys. Go figure. I mean, you did tell her to "just be pretty" in episode 1. Like wow you really said that to her face. *aggressive screaming*

All through this show, I really kept waiting for her to become this self aware person who would stand up for herself, but I guess what was wishing for to much? All through the show the one friend she has continuously bullies her. I mean what do you expect, she dunked your head in a sink because you were "competition" with the guy she liked.

Honestly at this point, I feel like I'm just going to repeat myself a lot but I will put a few episode reviews in as well:
EPISODE 2:
SPOILERS + RANT!!! I don't understand why I keep watching this... Okay, yes I do. I keep waiting for her to grow a brain and realize she is her own person.What the hell even was this episode?So far, she's been bullied harshly then told she just "needs to be pretty" to which she begs for help. Are you serious? Then we have this episode where the girl that bullied her and literally stuck her head in a sink -- she got on her knees and begged for information, bitch WHAT?! And these same people that never gave a shit about her are suddenly "masters" and "gods" to her. Are you shitting me? I get teenage brain, I do. I was one at one point, but teens are not that fucking dumb. That ending though. bruh. Lol Known each other 2 days and suddenly they love each other. Lawd have mercy.Though props to him that he at least TRIED to tell her he didn't want to restrict her world and that she shouldn't lose friends because of him. She's the one that pulled the "as long as I'm with you, I don't care. I want to be restricted"mmmm you know what that is? Mental abuse.

EPISODE 3:
*Rant + Spoilers*Were we all this stupid in our teens years with relationships? Gah I fucking hope not. Geez. I'm trying to change my thoughts on this because I know they are teenagers and being a teenager, a lot of chemicals and crap are firing off so the constant "learning" is never ending.... but GOSH DAMN MAKE THIS STOP! This episode wasn't as bad as the first two but it wasn't better in any way. Of course by the end, they found a way to once again blame Mairu. Because gosh forbid she say "I'm sorry" and be late? Meanwhile he has left her hanging how many times now? Oh and his little friend talking shit about her and saying "well I wouldn't 'blah blah blah'" then kissing him? Wow yeah, y'all two deserve each other, leave Mairu out of it. That was seriously fucked up. Love how in episode 1(?) he was talking about how he hates liars. LOLOLOL!!! Biiiiiiiiiitch you just CHEATED! *snorts* Lemme guess, in episode 4, it's going to somehow be her fault again right? Lemme guess.... her jealousy pushed you or something? Acting like you didn't did throw a bitch fit when she was hanging out with Tenyu. Can we say toxic?Ladies and gentlemen, this. this right here would be the perfect time for Do Re Mi.

EPISODE 6:
Mhmmmm of course that would happen because it's a non original story with a non original outcome. Swear the title should just be "no one care until you are pretty"*spoilers + rant*This show really activated my stress eating on a whole fucking level and I still have two episodes to go. Geez. I really wanted this to at least have a original outcome but we know from episode one she was gonna end up with the ML, but wait, before we get there, we have to throw in the... dundundunnnnn EX!!!! *insert overdramatic scream* not just any ex, but THAT ex. You know, the one you can't hate because you met her before you knew so you became buddy ol pals and after you found out, you're now threatened.Yes, threatened. TF, even!? I mean anyone with eyeballs can see she's liked him from the start, but you know... had to at least give the cheater and neighbor a shot before realizing you liked the ML. Can we just say though, she could have stayed with the neighbor and called it done? I mean why not. It would be something *new*. Nevermind he went from being cold, hard, with the emotions of a rock to soft widdle bawby overnight -- suddenly he is head over heels for her. *dramatic eye roll* wughiurhgvhuuhir UGGGHHH GOSH DAMN THIS TO FUCKING HELL I CAN'T EVEN WITH THIS SHOW!!!! I CAN'T!!! Please note, I'm not hating on the actors. The actors are doing amazing jobs. I just hate the characters and the *basic* storyline.

All in all, I'm shocked I made it through the whole show and the ending was basic. It ends exactly how you think it will when you guess from episode one. Even 10 minutes into the last episode, I said everything in order that would happen... and it did. I think the ONLY character I absolutely loved though this whole show was her aunt. Her aunt was so gosh damn adorable and was always trying to be the voice of reason and tell her how amazing she is and everything. Like, the kind of person she really needed in her life. I just... *chef's kiss* her aunt was a blessing from start to end.

It's pretty much Gonjiam. The only likeable character was Jaemin (I think that was his name. The actual ghost hunter with brains)
I still don't understand why they all came together? They seemed to not actually know each other but did? It's all a bit weird and up in the air for me.

While I did like the movie, them fighting at at each other's throats CONSTANTLY took so much away from the movie for me.. I would under if that happened out of fear but even from the beginning the main dude was a asshole and annoying as hell.

I don't understand the reasoning behind letting him outside to see the headstone and show no bars on the door either. That confused me..

I felt more sympathy towards all the trapped ghost. I really wonder if it would have made a difference if they attempted to unlock doors/cages. Cuz can you imagine having ghosts back you up against the main thing keeping you all there? Lol but I get it. It's just a movie and I'm looking waaayyyy to much into it. But still.

With Halloween coming up, this would be a great movie to add to your list.

Over all, I ended up loving this movie.
Though, pretty sure I'm character/actor biased. Lol

First starting off it seemed like the usually (boring) slow-burn, but pretty quickly things started to pick up. I think the humor parts are what really kept this movie going for me because the surrounding scenes complemented it perfectly. It was serious and tense just enough to not make your head explode and the funny moments were timed perfectly to where it was just * chef's kiss*

Was not, repeat, was NOT a fan of Chen at first. But i wasn't a fan of Duan Mo Ze either..... I think previous shows and movies have made me sus over anyone who is "to nice" like he was. Lol.

In the end I did like Duan Mo Ze. Still iffy about Chen. But with the ending I think she did make right choice though lol. She is definitely not the shy, weak, take the punches kinda girl i thought she was. Lol

Even though this is the typical love triangle storyline that we can't seem to escape from, I still loved it.

Read More

No. Because what the hell was that?
Holy shit this was the most toxic relationship I've seen in a while.
There was nothing cute, sweet, or happy about this in any way. I think the only thing i liked was her friendship with her best friend who didn't go to the same school. That was true friendship.
The girls she went to school with were nothing but trash. Mr "black prince" was just a scumbag.

I've never rooted so hard for a second lead before in my life and don't understand why she would pass up someone who would treat her well to be with a dude that calls you names and sees you as no more than an animal. (S&M, my ass. This is far from it)

FL wasn't likable either honestly. She had no spine and never grew one either. She was overly desperate and gosh damn this would go no where quick. Resentment in the future. Lol

Was so curious and excited to see this because the cover and plot sounded interesting........ mistakes were clearly made. Lol

*slaps screen into the wall* ....What was that ending?!

Okay but really though, I started this show just to see if it would grab my attention at all... ummmm Hours later and totally completed, I would say yes.... Yes it did. Now I need to find the rest of the series before i lose my damn mind.

I didn't know this was part of a series until I was near the end and felt like there was a lot more to this than they were saying (glad to know I was right lol)

There really isn't much I can say about this show without giving to much away, really. I think the actors are fucking phenomenal because most of the time I felt like I was reading someone's journal or looking in through someone's window. Everything about it was raw and real.

I wasn't expecting that ending at all if I'm totally honest though. Not sure what I expected but..... not that.
Not that I'm mad or anything, but I might have looked at the screen like "did my ship just sink!?" Lol

Really hoping the rest of the series is as amazing as this one.

I need to be medicated.

I loved this show up till around episode 7. It seemed pretty lighthearted even though it had its issues. But once it got to those episodes... My blood pressure stayed high, my jaw stayed clenched, and my anxiety stayed in the clouds.

PLEASE NOTE: IF YOU WANT TO WATCH THIS, PLEASE BE OF AGE!!! I'M TALKING 18 AND UP! I DON'T CARE IF YOU THINK "OH I'M MATURE!" NO! 18+! -_- I SAID WHAT I SAID!

**WARNING: MASS SPOILER ALERT!!!**
I'm trying so hard to sort through my thoughts on this show but all I can think of is one constant scream. Therefore, I have a massive headache. I think episodes 7 and up really fucked with my head because legit, I can't remember the show before those episodes! I know that sounds crazy. Trust me, I know. It's weird because I KNOW I liked the show up till that point.. so why can't I remember? It's like once I got to that point, it was like a "my life is a lie" situation.

I hated Hanabi though. Really and truly. She goes on and on how much she loves (what the fuck is the teachers name?) Kanai? I think? ANYWAY -- I honestly feel like she mistook her infatuation with him as love. He's been there since she was a kid and honestly played a big male part in her life, so it kinda makes sense, I guess? What doesn't make sense is how through this whole (and yes, I mean the WHOLE show) is how they made Akane the "heartless bitch monster" of this series... I mean, don't get me wrong. She was. She was a awful piece of shit. But while she was that, Hanabi knew this. She saw what a shitty person Akane was and pretty much was like "I won't be like her" ONLY TO END UP BEING JUST LIKE HER!!! LIKE WHAT?!?!
I made me want to throat punch her so fucking bad. I get teenage hormones are the worst. I do. I really do, I've been there. We all have. But it doesn't mean we want to use every single person we know just to feel a void. Gosh damn. Be normal. Drink alcohol and do drugs like a normie. I'M FUCKING KIDDING!!! DON'T DO THAT!!! I'M LITERALLY KIDDING! DON'T DO THOSE THINGS! THEY FUCK UP YOUR LIFE! Lol
Anyway, now that bad joke it out of the way and I'm sure I will regret it. Yeeeeee let's continue. As you know, I'm completely and utterly Dori Sakurada biased. I love the man and all he does... but lemme tell youuuuuuu he pushed me in this show. Gosh daaaaaamn he pushed me. (there I go clenching my jaw again; gotta do what you can to keep yourself from screaming until your lungs deflate) How can you see you're falling for a person and genuinely be like "eh fuck that. I'ma chase ass instead" because that is pretty much what he did. How can you see someone's true colors and still want to pick them? All while saying their toxic behavior is "cute"? Bruh... what!?

Let me just say, even though I wanted Hanabi and Mugi together -- fuck that noise. How many times did they talk about a relationship only to turn right around and fuck around with someone else? Like I shit you not. The SECOND they were like "well... let's be a real couple then?" Hanabi went and had sex with someone else. WHILE TALKING TO SOMEONE ELSE AT THE SAME TIME! WHAT THE HELL IS YOUR DAMAGE!?!

Now a character I really did like was Ecchan. I was not expecting to see a character like her. She deserved so much better than what she ended up with. I think that is what made me hate Hanabi to the max was how she did Ecchan. How can you call someone your friend and lie to their face like that? Even if they say they're okay with you using them.... Smh, I don't care who you are. No one WANTS to be used. Don't do that to them. It's a bitchy fucked up move. Ecchan deserved better and she never should have forgiven Hanabi.

By the end of this show I pretty much hated everyone except like 2 people (Ecchan and Kanai). I still don't understand that ending and it pisses me off. All this time it seems like Hanabi was just getting by with her fuck toy and one friend? Yet at the end, dudes were tripping over themselves to ask her out and she walks away with a group of girl-friends. fihgwaslkhaflsk WHO THE HELL ARE YOU PEOPLE!? WHERE DID YOU COME FROM!? I hate gaps like that so much. Especially like this because there were no gaps. Everything happened so fast it was damn near lightening speed so it makes zero sense that all this happened as fast as it did.
They set up this ending and buildup like Hanabi and Mugi would get together and of course those that watch it know was a bust that was. That ending made me scream so loud in frustration. After all of this bullshit -- what was the fucking point? You expect the main characters to have some kind of story to finish off with but nope. It ended up the side characters that finished off the story completely. Why? What was the point? I'm so aggravated over this show.

Will I come back and fix this review? Maybe when my head stops pounding. Maybe not because I want to move on from this as soon as possible.

Remember kids, don't drink and don't do drugs. it was a joke and a bad one at that.

I did NOT plan to get that invested...

Have you ever randomly clicked on a show just to have something playing in the background as you do something else? This was one of those shows for me, only when I clicked it, I fully intended to just let it play as I went about my work buuuuut... from the moment it started - there was no cutting it off. Even my family stopped what they were doing to start watching this show.

My ONLY warning to you if you see this show and want to watch it, clear your schedule because you are about to miss a lot of sleep to finish this show.

I ended up loving every single one of the characters.... and I do mean Every. Single. One. Those from the start that you just hate with a passion and want to hit with a car.... loved. Lol. Hats off to the writer of this show because it is really hard to take a hated character and make them loved. Least for me it is. Because when I hate someone, there is no changing it. Lol. It goes to show that the growth of all of the characters are powerful.

The twists man. Oh gosh!! This is the PERFECT example of the quote "that's what you get for assuming." *hides in shame* I was so ready to hate so many of these characters only to have it shoved in my face that what I *thought* was actually HELLA FREAKING WRONG!!!

Because This Is My First Life is one of those shows that you need to watch every single scene though because you'll be lost for a while if you don't. Not that I minded; it was like crack. Lol When I finally did need sleep - I had to actually force myself to shut it off. Which... did last long, mind you. Like I said, it's crack. Hahaha

I want to say this is probably the first drama I have watched where I haven't completely ripped into something or someone. X_X Though don't get me wrong, there was one character I love/hated. He was such a amazing person in the end but he reminded me of someone that makes my skin crawl. So it was always mixed feelings with him.

"Sounds like a personal problem to me." Lol - it is, bro. It is.

So do yourself a favor, check the show out. You know you wanna.

What was the reason?

I haven't written a review in so long but I just feel way to *much* about this.
Also this might contain spoilers, if that's even possible though since the synopsis and preview tell the whole story.

It's been 10 years. 10 YEARS since you last saw this woman. Who, yeah, I get it. You loved her, but... come on. 10 years and suddenly she shows up and you aren't even together a whole day before she is asking you to kill her husband? My dude.... come on. and why the hell did you agree to?
I get wanting to do something. I do. Especially to protect someone. But again, you haven't seen this person in 10 years and you have a really good life... you're just going to throw that all away?

Maybe if they didn't start the movie off the bat like that or maybe they spent more time together to show us this "bond" they're supposed to have, I would care more or at least understand. But as is, I don't understand.

All through this movie and I do mean ALL THROUGH IT, it just felt like Nanae was using Rei. She was throwing out red flags like crazy. Even when they were teens. It felt like she knew Rei loved her and she could use that to her advantage. Rei on the other hand, I have no idea. It was weird how she constantly said she was lesbian but still ended up having sex with two guys. I get shit happens but, you didn't need to sleep with the dude to kill him honestly aaaand the second dude? I'm just confused.

This movie gave me one hell of a stress headache. It was a absolute dumpster fire. Even watching it on 1.5x felt like it didn't end it quickly enough. and the ending? All this went down and through the whole movie Nanae talked nonstop about wanting to die. like bitch, why did you get Rei involved in the first place then?! and for the last line to be "I'll wait for you" -- well you fuckin better. Though I doubt you will. Wish there was some after credits scenes or something cuz it ended with me more pissed off than ever.
