Love Cell Magic Beat My Disappointment
As the webtoon fan, who read Yumi's Cells while it was still on going over a decade ago, riding through roller coaster of emotions together with Yumi, I had bittersweet feeling. As I finished this season, I still wonder to this second why they gave Yumi's end game the shortest season- even down to steal most of Sunrok's chapters for previous season? Why they couldn't stay true to the og material like season 1? I have many disappointment but also, it is as much as my pleasure and joy watching this season! :)
This season gave me that magical feeling of falling in love again, from being timid, shy, gazing at the crush in silence, and eavesdrop him talking. The never ending doubt, those "maybe" feeling, they made me giggling. I love watching Yumi in love and I get nervous along with her, it is silly yet exciting. The transition between real life and village animation is so smooth and the cells of course are really funny and truly the main stars "Yumi's Cells!". Props to Kim Goeun for her beautiful acting too!
There is a big change in drama where they made Yumi much older than ML but it doesn't matter as his mature character plays a part. When a fight nearly breaks out due to a misunderstanding, he doesn't act emotionally but explain it precisely without room for misinterpretation, and even if it was a misunderstanding, he apologize, and accepting those words just as they are. I like how this season capture how important emotional maturity is. They also show us how significant it is being in a stable career and having stable income, love how big it plays a part in all Yumi's seasons. These small messages that made relationship as real as it is!
This season is fire. Storytelling, direction, down to animation everything has been perfect. But, it is not enough and I think they have done final season dirty for giving us 8 episodes. I still can't comprehend the decision, aside the stolen chapters, we can see they can write new plots- but they decided not to? they also cut more of Sunrok chapters - dating bits and isabelle arc which is important for yumi's career. I love it so much they managed to give us new twist surprise and hate it so much they didn't give us more. I feel empty writing this, like I can't believe we won't get to see more of Yumi's Cells anymore. There is a lot "what if" moment for me while watching this, if only we get more times to meet Yumi and watch more of her life.
