Yeah. Weak sauce. Seemed so arbitrary.

The Chin and Ue relationship continues to be the only reason to watch this series.

Chin blew it bigtime when he told Ue that he wanted to remain friends. He obviously regrets that now and has clear competition in the form of Pat, who is more confident in his attraction to other boys and has no problem standing up to Chin's territorial behavior.

Chin's girl friend (if not "girlfriend") seems like a secondary pursuit. He does try to use her to make Ue jealous, but no matter how he plays it Ue always seems to end up with the upper hand.

The two remain roommates and share one bed. Given the amount of tension between them I don't know how either one gets a wink of sleep. Chin (the poor guy) seems desperate to cuddle.

Well, they never showed us how he got away from Todd. Did he make a deal?

The writers for this series are too good to provide such a blatant hint at what is going to happen. They might as well have him in a t-shirt that reads "I'm gonna die".

My bet is on Dan being dead at the end. As the ultimate penance over killing Sean's dad he will sacrifice himself to protect the others.

Yeah, like I said a few episodes back, Yok is that buddy of yours who gets his first girlfriend and thinks she's the greatest bipod to ever walk the earth, so without asking anyone he just starts letting her tag along everywhere he goes, including to get-togethers that had always been off-limits to outsiders male or female.

I think this comment nicely captures how fans like us approach the series.

One of the funniest things I’ve ever seen was the breakfast table scene from last week when Zeyn was coming out from under the table and hit his head. Mikey’s mom completely lost it trying not to laugh. After the first “bang!” she kinda holds it together but the second bang totally destroys her and she has to put her head down to hide her laughter.

I’m so glad they left that in.

To get past the idea of 20-minute episodes just think of this as a 2-1/2 hour movie edited into eight parts. Sure, it’s an annoying format, but do people really think a decent story can’t be told in 2-1/2 hours?

But, yeah. Otherwise I can understand the bellyaching. It’s too bad the first episode couldn’t introduce some of the important characters and their milieu, establish their distinct personalities, show how some of them meet and intertwine their lives, and set up a confrontation between the mains for next week. What a fiasco.

Where are people seeing that there will be a Season 3? I thought I must have missed something so I rewatched the ending of the episode until the very last second of the video. Nothing about Season 3.

Has it been announced someplace else?

It sure makes things interesting!

I still dream about that kiss.

Wayu is well on his way to becoming a meme much like 2gether’s high five.

The biggest problem with this series is that it rewrites Fiat’s slutty past and goes into all these story contortions to make him into a victim who’d simply been fooled, exploited or blackmailed by others. They want us to forget that in TT2 Fiat himself said that he slept around to get Leo’s attention.

Preview for next week shows that Saint is going to be an interesting character. What’s he up to, seducing So? My first thought is that he wants to build up So’s hopes and then humiliate him. And that would cause me concern over his intentions with Mon.

I know the word I was looking for: Romantic. The main story is romantic in an old-fashioned way. It’s what the relationship between Ae and Pete could have been in LBC if not for the stupid addition of the bully.

This is really, really good! Wonderful chemistry between the leads. They’re both adults with their own back stories and treat each other with respect. I usually prefer the “enemies to lovers” trope but this series is just a great story about how two very different people can fall in love.

And I think we’re safe from silly hijinks like a revelation that the two leads knew each other as children but didn’t recognize each other or remember each other’s name. (Insert eye roll here. )

Actually I was watching it there, but you’re right, they’re fixed now. =)

Likewise. For me a lot is riding on whether this series can match that final kiss in To My Star. Also (so far), To My Star has an emotional edge in some key scenes that Semantic Error hasn’t shown yet. I love when a supposedly emotionless character finally has a moment where he just can’t control it anymore.

There’s one where he likes HER first but she isn’t interested.

Subs on Episode 4 are misaligned, flying past much faster than what’s happening on screen. Hopefully they’ll fix it by this weekend.

Ikr!
