So hard to even rate this . So much cringe 🤣 but I also couldn't stop watching mostly because of Mac Nan. They're no Pete Vegas 😆 but they were my only entertainment after the rest of the show just turned out to be bland and way too cutesy.I mean I was there to see some messed up shit and maybe some proper NC scenes between Day Itt but literally the whole plot involved Day trying to hate on Itt and regaining his memory.
Also, in the beginning Itt is the guy who everyone hates because he keeps acting entitled and keeps asking Day to do things for him and it feels like he's an asshole, but you know that's not what it felt like to me.
Basically he was definitely being manipulated by Day who admitted it! That he wants Itt to get so attached to him that he can never leave.
And then, spoiler alert, when the scene where Day beats the shit out of Itt and definitely rapes him, that was the implication right? it was really well done for sure.
it's just everyone on the show is just TRASH LOL
DAY: Manipulated and VIOLENTLY BEAT UP HIS SO CALLED BF.
ITT : Didn't do shit for Mac even when the poor guy was begging for his help.
Was pretty much involved in letting his friend Gear roofie or whatever it was actually unclear to me, and have definitely nonconsensual sex with Night , Day's actual blood brother.
Mac: Tried to rape Itt.
Nan : Forced Mac to be his human slave.
and this is basically all the main characters!
but hot damn that last episode, Non looked fine af! Everyone actually looked really good in the finale but there were still no actual details about what Gear did to Day's brother Night or why they're even together after he clearly must have done something bad to him for sure.
Rating 6 and not lower because I guess I just needed some mindless cringe and I was mostly just hate watching at first.
But whatever, just going to rate a little bit higher for Mac and Nan, the couple who don't even know what the word 'red flag' means and are definitely color blind like me. and actually pretty much everyone is, but that part is fine lol I just wished it was a little more ... less bland and cute.
like something so DARK would happen and you'd expect it to get darker and get somewhere , but then some damn boring af cute scenes between Day Itt. which frankly, were just SO BAD.
Like I love when BL shows do cute right.
like Gene Sib, or Sky Prapai, or Leo Fiat. Even Cutie pie has some great cute scenes that are adorable ! But they were just not good at all at it.
so it's not a cutesy romance and it's not a full on KP level MESSED UP either. it's just kinda meh . and that one villain ffs he was literally even more garbage than anyone else.

xx --- So spoilers ahead --- xx I honestly thought it was pretty entertaining and I loved Boom she was a class act till the end :') I really was shipping her with Tor but he literally became so much of a jerk I was getting pissed and there was no underdog theme with his character because the true underdogs were Bern, Boom, and Stud. And none of their endings felt right to me. I was really hoping Boom would end up with Bern, they were both so supportive and understanding and just generally kind at the core.
As for Stud, another SLS disappointment lol but at least this one I was ready for. Because I knew the spoilers ahead about the love triangle. I mean they couldn't even give him a proper loving kiss with AJ!!! Ffs.
The thing is this show has some good writing if not great, but where it failed for me was the repetitive nature of scenes. Basically the entire second half was Sam saying "nothing I'm doing is good enough for you " and Earth giving some variation of "I hate you for what you did" seriously it got tedious after a while. And tbh despite Stud being 'slutty' there were truly MAYBE two proper HOT SCENES and one of them was Stud and Doc ! And yes why was Arm's character even THERE. he's GORGEOUS , CAN ACT - so why did you not make him part of the story when there was literally no content in the second half.
Another thing that majorly pissed me off was Stud, Bern being called losers because they didn't have a job such typical capitalist propaganda it was just wrong. And Stud man another total fail like Art's arc in WTD. Bunch of racy scenes and after that confession omg I cried for him lol but just a total mess of sl like Rambo. Just literally they could have talked about why he was so impulsive, a mental health issue or even if it is just typical fuckboi behavior give it some nuance.
I didnt even mind Joss was such a text book fuckboi cause he wasn't part of the story, he was just there for Boyo to grow. And Oh and btw Lee and the girl lol I just couldn't get into them as a couple. Literally ended on a HANDSHAKE and felt forced. He was clearly in love with the Joss of chicks lol and when she turned out to be married he finally goes to Boyo. How is that love? And dont even getme started on Boyo lol the woman was an entitled bitch who called her friends sluttyy, shamed them, and even when she'd supposedly grown because she had a career I just couldn't believe she had any real feelings for Good.
As for the happy ending for Sam Earth - tbh I feel cheated. It just feels like an easy way out. And again characterization was lacking here as well, so we never quite understand why Sam is so attached to him. Maybe just staring into eyes isn't enough, and most of their script composed of the same rehashed 'i love youso much, u love you too. The only nuance there was like i said it was either in the Earth Stud relationship or Sam Stud . I know it sounds strange but that kissing scene in the bathroom bw Sam Stud was just SO GOOD!
And when Stud confessed to AJ and even stopped himself from screwing him, he goes 'I ruined the life of the person i love the most.' Like ffs. That's really something. Before till that point it felt like Stud was into Sam. That he wanted to be in Earths place but from the beginning he was trying to come to termswith the fact that he Earth is no longer available. Arm was right all along and probably he realized at some point too that Stud willalways love Earth so he doesn't get close to Stud either.
Anyway so I did enjoy it and going to watch season 2 pretty much just out of curiosity XD hopefully they'll do better

I'm wavering between 6 and 7 for this one but ill just stick to 7. Because while I enjoyed it its no good for a rewatch for me. Mainly because there was something about the fl that I had to really push myself to keep going. But what I loved was their cute and bickering romance and lets face it Mik looks sexy. The second couple was good too i enjoyed their story and that one death really made me sad. So, yes it has its moments for sure but just a one watch thing for me. Also generally I just wasn't too keen on the idea of falling for your ex s lookalike. Like it just doesn't feel like true love, just my opinion. So, its not bad and pretty enjoyable.

After being bored for five eps finally things got interesting in ep 6 and the finale was actually pretty good. My problem is that this should have been a dark sexy romantic suspense but is just average in every way and got boring for me for the most part so even though the actors were convincing, I felt SO BORED. The prime reason for that being you watch slap and kiss or romantic suspense to watch the couple's interaction, not their separate interaction with the five year old whose voice was terribly dubbed by a female lol or Jun kai s interaction with his sister! I mean this was 15 mins eps they shouldn't have added all that boring ass crap. So, in the end it didn't really do anything for me.

Buuut not going to lie the male leads freaking gorgeous and it did provide me all that good lakorn angst lol even though my angst came from a different place than other viewers who couldn't find anything wrong with the self righteous father and female lead.
Anyway, seriously the only person who genuinely cared for the male lead was the other girl who I knew was fated to lose because all the self serving self righteous people hated her too.
Again, comparing with the H in Hua Jai Sila, COME ON - like these two females have NOTHING in common! The HJS female lead was genuinely caring and wasn't at all a total bitch, didn't get all judgy and preachy. This one on the other was nothing more than a shallow bitch .
Anyway, not a total waste of time but it could've been so much better.

Aahhh I knew when I was sooooooo happy they were going to make me cry! lol but that's Kamen Rider for you. It's a W Accel cross over too well more like a cameo. Never thought I'd hear the words 'Roimude Dopant' lol
In this story you'll see Chase struggling with his 'mannequin' look and watch Brain pining relentlessly for Heart, so usual Brain lol but waaay more hilarious XD
This is basically the story of how Chase became a real boy :') and seriously Krim was so mean to say that stuff to him! But yes, expect a lot of happiness, a lot of heartbreak and it's all done so perfectly I have no problems at all, it's just that good.

- MAJOR SPOILERS AHEAD - Because I'm obsessed with Suda Masaki in case you didn't already know I have seen W more times than I'm comfortable saying aloud lol and okay the thing about Kamen Rider is no matter how cynical you may be you will cry like a baby several times during any season. And for seasons like Amazon, W and Build its even worse. So honestly this season just has that nostalgia factor for me. But while Amazon is super dark, and Build is emotional and angsty, W is way more light hearted and then gets dark toward the end. But like I said throughout the season even plenty of dark stuff and messed up stuff is going on from Phillip's family being the worst family on the planet lol no exaggeration... the father made his own son and daughters part of weird experiments, had his son in law put through hell, and to top it all off, used his DEAD SON TO FURTHER HIS CRAZY CAUSE. And the mother is no different! She manipulated Accel into being powerful enough so he could be W with Philip FOR NO GODDAMN REASON and then manipulated HER OWN SON to go against Shotaro, once again FOR NO GODDAMN REASON lol So as families go, the Sonozakis do crazy like no other. So naturally because Shotaro loves Philip, it's painful to watch him struggling with self-doubt because first the son-in-law (who eventually became a good person but they killed him anyhow and it pissed me off but whatever), then Philip's sister, then his father, then the goddamed mother tries to break them up ffs talk about Family in law from HELL lol but bro have you seeeen Phillip lol he looks like an androgynous fairy how can you not fall for him hard. Ahhh okay enough rambling XD but yes I loveeee these two!

I can't believe it's Huta he looks like a different person and so mature! As for the drama loved the cast loved the way it was made but I just hate when they start writing a cheating type story and nothing ever actually happens and it's all a misunderstanding wtf is the point. It's really just half-assed. It's not properly a melodrama and not properly a romance just somewhere in between because most of these scenes were with the different couples so in the start you're made to believe there's a lot of cheating going on so it will lead to some really good twist but the twist is THAT NOTHING HAPPENED LOL wtf.
And it wasn't surprising either because really all the 'twists' the way it was done I knew they were the type to just GO THERE. Buttttt some of the scenes were downright obscene lol like a guy practically jerking off and saying those obscenities and then NOTHING AT ALL.
But regardless it was an entertaining watch with a gorgeous cast.

Most of this drama is boring propaganda. There is no reason for naming the drama mirror twins they're not symbolic of anything and the main character is a cop who is stubborn and set in his ways so you expect him to have a change of heart but nothing of the sort ever happened and that mild reaction toward the end was so unnatural. So what's the point of this story? And the characters are all very bland and feel like the same person saying similar things with different actors. I didn't feel anything at all for anyone, save maybe the criminal twin at a few points. Shame because it started out well and definitely had potential. Im just glad I'm done because I don't like dropping dramas. Btw this is my review for both seasons. Was this review helpful to you?

Even this made me laugh and cry so much ㅜ^ㅜJust as good as the actual episodes. Basically, this is what happened every time the kiss created an alternate universe when Eight went back in time. So really it's actually more like extra footage but they really worked hard on making it a proper separate story line, with suspense and intrigue and a proper resolution.
But what I love about this spin off is that not only do we see a softer side of Eight but it was also a chance for the supporting cast to show their talent. And everyone from Makenyu to Jun, and even Miyazawa Hio , we see different sides of their characters because every parallel universe leads the characters into completely different circumstances from what's happening in Eight's reality.
So you see every possible character outcome from a blond Makenyu who becomes desperate and becomes a host to a universe where Takauji, Hotei become successful, to yet another where Takauji, Hotei, Mikoto, Hasebe, all live happily ever after, to some really dark endings for the characters.
Really it was as perfect as it could have been. I only wish there are proper spin offs or prequels in the future.
