Started for Yagira Yuya, Stayed for the Show
Man, I got to know about this show because the Manga won an award. Then i saw Yagira Yuya is in it...I have such a huge crush on him which only got amplified after this. I love this man ughhh but yeah talking about the drama its amazing and very inspiring actually. I was already aware of the OST but didn't know it belonged to this drama. Loved it too. Stories like this one is the reason why i like Japanese dramas so much. They just pull on my heatstrings like no other country. If you are a student from an Asian country like you must watch this !!!!!Was this review helpful to you?
Mon scénariste préféré m'a encore impressionné
J'adore Ozaki Mazaya. C'est un vieux drama japonais, donc la pureté de ce drama n'existe plus dans les dramas japonais.J'ai un faible pour les hommes qui recherchent la justice et qui sont moralistes, et ce type est mon type idéal. L'histoire d'amour est magnifique et la comédie est aussi exactement mon genre. Je le reverrai l'année prochaine.

GOTHIC AF BUT REPITITIVE AND FORMULAIC
The drama leans heavy on the gothic side and thats actually what dragged me in. I love the aesthetics and costume but there are very obvious and jarring cliches in this that kept pissing me off but I must admit the drama is captivating enough for you to not drop it midway.My main complain is from the ghost stories that occupy most of the time frame of this drama. I did like two of them which was very surprising to me because I was not expecting to like even a single one of them but really 2 of them were quite impressive especially with the imagery and direction they did leave an impact on me but the rest of them were frustratingly boring. I dont think this kind of unimpressive horror in mainstream chinese media has evolved for past 15 years. I dont understand how they keep writing the same tropes and keep employing same devices of storytelling. Even the direction and cinematography related to these so called corrupt spirits posessing people murder mystery thriller movies and dramas is just so uneasy on eyes that I feel like throwing up due to boredom.
Coming to the love story I would stay it is good but it has been destroyed by China's cosmetic industry. The female lead's face is so frozen by botox that she is actually incapable of displaying any emotions but I would still say she is a damn good actress because she still manages to convey most of the emotions by her mannerisms alone and actually botox kind of helps her to have this icy cold inhumane look which is appropriate for her character but when it comes to being emotional in love nah man she is not convincing enough. The guy also falls flat in extremely emotional scenes. i really wanted to be invested because the writer has done a good job but the immersion keeps breaking because the intensity is not well conveyed due to their frozen faces. It is such a shame because this definitely had potential. Anyways, it is a good one time watch I would say maybe just for the aesthetics.
