I really like how you put your thoughts on "Last Twilight" into wording. As a fellow review writer, I appreciate expressive reviews like yours a lot. :)
Xia Shang Zhou and Yao Shun Yu are the "Cure Cookie Couple". [I am referencing Episode 5]
On Viki the entire comment section was so amused in how Xia Shang Zhou gave prior kidnapped and sick Yao Shun Yu a Cookie and Milk to soothe his hungry stomach after being food deprived for many hours. Therefore I call them the "Cure Cookie Couple" now.
Wow. I´m impressed to see such a positive review. (Sounds meaner than I actually mean it) That alone convinced me to binge this series starting this evening.
OK. Clearly your trolling with that 3.5 but I can't let this just sit here. I may have to start leaving actual…
I don´t get why people disagree with you (@Jakksen) on a personal level and make it look as if you were just sulking about the fact that someone rated it a 3.5, when actually what you said was a legitimate statement which I support: Compared to all the other LGBTQIA+ shows that were released, this show is definitely not a 3.5.
I have also written about that in my review, which was triggered by the exact same issue I had with some of the lower reviews. Even though all reviews are based on personal preferences, I think that if someone decides to write a review, thus getting some cloud on MDL or whatsoever, they have some sort of responsibility to be fair with each aspect and their critiques towards a show.
Yes, the screenwriting was a bit disappointing but the acting was better than in most shows prior to this. Yes, this is not one of the new 2022/23 gems, but nonetheless, the Acting and the Music were not as bad as some people make them look. The dialogue carried this show, the vulnerability was portrayed by good acting. They correctly adapted the story from the original novel.
I see many reasons for this show to not be one of the best but I also see many reasons, some of which I had just mentioned, that do not legitimate a 3.5 rating. Just wanted to share my opinion, since that´s what this website is for.
Thank you for your review. I was almost going to give up on this series after seeing so much lower ratings like…
I think that people hoped for something less melancholic and conflicting. The characters show their flaws, stuggles, vulnerability and yet at the same time their progressiveness and resolution. It was a very serious show to me.
