MASSIVE believability issues, but worth it for the lads
Being a Wabi Sabi production, technical merits of the production are poor: it was filmed on cheap cameras, the sound quality is bad.
Directing is also awkward, including poor music score choices with some pieces annoyingly in endless loops, over dramatic music from the UWMA series not fitting the narrative, different music pieces overlapping each other.
* * *
I WISH THEY would drop DeanPharm from this series altogether.
Their story was already told exhaustively in the UWMA series, and it is so overdramatised that it can not properly work as a side story.
The novel/production is beating a dead horse with it for griefpron at this point as there is nothing to tell any more.
It is a totally different mood even. Besides, the UWMA was a magical fantasy, but the main couple here is not.
* * *
I ALSO wish all kinds of series would stop glorying motorcycles and how “cool” they are.
The issue is that you are 24 times (!) more likely to die per travelled kilometre than using a normal car.
And this has nothing to do with how genius you think you are as a driver or if you are not ever breaking speed limits. The very nature of this transportation type is deadly.
Never buy or ride motorcycles, period. Though using a bus is further 15 times safer than using a car. The problem, however, is that in some cases you have no choice due to bad public transport.
