watchingstuff

I get that to each their own, bc to me at the end it turned out to be like “none of the genres got to shine” bc it’s neither this or that. I mostly blame myself for expecting from it smth that it wasn’t gonna be in the first place. but it indeed is just a several genres put together with an attempt to chase three rabbits at the same time. I think it could be very enjoyable for ppl to whom action is the main point of watching. I do not mean fighting, but just in general constantly smth happening so you can wouldn’t get bored (bc ppl get bored easily these days let’s be honest haha). but sadly to me who expected great memorable characters and plot and love story it all fell short

I certainly do think that it’s great that finally someone decided to make smth like this, it’s really awesome, BUT this just reminds me of all of these het mainstream kdramas, when they imply that the two main characters have an epic love story in the past, but they show almost nothing from that story (and that’s why ppl start to lean into bromances in those lmao), you just have to accept the fact that they suddenly will find each other in any lives even though you haven’t even sold me on their love story in any capacity. I know many people love these, but I always just can’t connect with this at all, bc I do not get it tbh. what? why? how? when? I know this is just not my kind of story writing, I prefer stories where I know a lot about characters, their past, why they fell for each other (yeah I know there will always be “you love for nothing” ppl), the process of it etc . but that’s just… I’m sorry I feel like there’s the most important chunk is missing, they somehow make me care for some random ppl from the investigations more which is just lol

I get that it was hard to make as it is and asking for more than 12 eps is impossible probably considering everything, but I’m just not sold on their “love story” at all. there is no that soul pain and crushing feeling that I usually have for such “epic couples” who reincarnate and wait for each other in any life as I feel when I for example read some cnovels. it’s just not there. it’s really the same feeling I have when I watched some kumiko or king monarch, where I’m like “I really want to be invested in your relationships but I’m not, I’m sorry” but the writers are like “but but reincarnation…” haha and I’m like “just throwing it in don’t make it a great love story”

I know not many will get me in this, but maybe someone will lol

this is probably like my 5th otp that was told by some prophecy that they’ll die if they get together, while the highest chances of them dying is by a heartache of not being together. such a losers lmao

also, nooooo, not the Nuengdiao’s uncle war flashbacks WAR FLASHBACKS 😂

Way low-key gives off Long from TT vibes. I mean, I just don’t see how what he’s doing will help him get the guy. Even if he clears the way, it still won’t magically make Babe attracted to him and make him want to date him. Unless his goal is just to keep Babe lonely and paranoid for life.

And if I guessed his powers correctly and he really does what I think he’s doing with his “you were better when you didn’t believe in love and didn’t trust people, let’s go back to that” chantings, I’m definitely starting to think that he also kinda realised that Babe won’t be with him anyways single or not, so he just wants him to be unhappy too. Which smells like psycho ward tbh 💀

imo too, and I know it sounds kinda mean, but when you’re looking literally at any other couple in this show this fact just stands out even more sadly
