I do have a rather expansive way of saying simple things when stuck conversing via text.
I was going into why COVID-19 would have impacted the series...so at least you were able to glean something from my rambling monologue.
(^～^;)ゞ

That's a great reason to re-watch...I was too focused on de-tangling the plot, when I wasn't working on the emotional effects.

Unlike books, I do miss some details on the initial viewing...Probably because I can't maintain the same degree of focus.
For books I live in what is tantamount to time compression, so every minute of real time is more than eight minutes in terms of what I am actually perceiving. So, that results in me reading faster than two pages in a minute. I can't do that with stuff like this since there's more than just text that I need to be aware of externally.

I think the main reason why Tutor didn't bother getting all amped up about the expense was because he realized that the expense was going to occur, no matter how he protested. Sometimes, it pays to be pragmatic, and that's essentially what he had to do. He decided to enjoy the gift as it was meant to be given, since that's how Fighter viewed that sort of thing.
To Fighter, the money he spent on Tutor wasn't important, he had said as much on previous occasions, what mattered to him was that Tutor could relax more, and be happy. There were obvious bumps in reaching this compromise because of their backgrounds. Good relationships involve communication, & compromise...
Essentially, Tutor just accepted Fighter as he was finally, it's not like Fighter chose to be rich. (I wish this platform supported Emojis at times, because I feel like what I write is so easy to misinterpret...and even with emojis I still get people misreading what I say. All of my real communication talent is in speaking.)

I Always read, play games, or watch things from a details seeking perspective. They can make even The Most Stereotypical Plots fun, and enjoyable.
The story definitely was a tangled mess to begin with, but I have experience in handling that stuff, so even that didn't faze me all that much aside from making me laugh.
I definitely would like to see the story continue though, & hopefully everyone is now familiar enough with the new measures that need to be taken that they won't affect the production as much.

The essential plots of many stories are pretty similar.
Many share many of the same plot points, pacing, and overall proceedings for the way the characters interact. Like how Pokemon games work, it's the details that matter.
How did the actors play their roles?
How was plot concept "A" adjusted by the Actors, and Director(s? How did they do what and when?
That's what really matters, even if the overall effect isn't spectacular there's always some minor, and sometimes major part(s) that was(were) done in an exceptional manner.
That's the kind of thing I have set myself up to look for, since it's far less likely to cause disappointment...Though there is one thing that I absolutely cannot stand watching, because the exceptional bits are so spare that it's pure torture to watch...so I don't watch it.

Either way, the show was decidedly impacted by the outbreak of COVID-19. Which had an impact on Asia before it hit the Western, and Southern Hemispheres. Which despite efforts to hide the narrative, was spreading back in December. So, I imagine the looming threat of a Third Significant Virus spreading in the Region could have an impact on some things. Thailand was affect by SARS, & the one that had an "M" for an initial, if I remember correctly, since it is in rather close proximity to China, and to the Wild Reservoirs for many yet to be identified Viruses. The down side of tropical, and sub-tropical regions is the very biodiversity that protects the Earth, is also Prime Real Estate for Microbial Developments.
Those of Us in the Dry, and Cold places have less to worry about because the lack of water, & or heat inhibits non-eukaryotic forms of biological development.

Basically a great example of why you shouldn't say anything if you don't have anything nice to say.
Those fans basically ruined their own ship. The Irony is pretty thick there.
Which suits my dry & wry sense of humor actually.?
