Series that wouldn't exist if every character got therapy
Or alternatively: Man Has A Crush For 15 Years & Makes It Everyone's Problem
Holy shit this was a freaking rollercoaster. I don't even know how to properly start this review???
Okay let me begin by saying that this is my first ever ABO/mpreg media I've watched. And it is a wild experience and what really helped me was doing some research (lol) into what ABO actually means and entails.
Knowing that history really helps see what the tropes are, how characters act and how sometimes it gets subverted.
The story was pretty good in the beginning but the ending really flopped. The story also got complicated by bad editing: the flashback scenes were sometimes hard to distuingish and in episode 14/15 they suddenly use a voiceover/narrator which felt really lazy. It was a prime example of telling vs. showing and it really ruined the vibe and the feel, which is a real shame since the overall production value up till then was quite high.
The casting was done great and I really liked the actors. I wish we'd gotten more scenes about Shen Wenlang's family since there's a whole weird complicated backstory with his two dads. I also thought the introduction of the random cousin of HY was so unnecessary and didn't make sense to me at all except for serving to show that HY wants to start a family.
A family which he would very eagerly abandon fyi !
Luckily SSY doesn't die so the family stays together but wtaf man, it is exactly something Edward from Twilight would do - kill the child/himself to be with Bella...sigh
As for my review title: if you watch it you'll agree. Holy crap those characters are messed up but each in their own unique way that hinders them to form healthy relationships. HY and SSY definitely don't have a healthy relationship in the beginning and even at the end I'm kind of like 'wow i cant believe these two are together'...of course on the other hand if they weren't together they would be wreaking all kinds of havoc on the world so maybe it's for the best that these 2 fcking freaks are married. And Gao Tu and Shen Wenlang...don't get me started. The ending was absolutely ridiculous. The fact that SWL doesn't even know GT's relationship with his dad is just so telling. Most people would start to pick up on that if they had been friends for 10 years. Of course GT is excellent at keeping everything secret so maybe it's a bit unfair to blame SWL.
But when I tell you I screamed when GT and his son reappeared on the screen??? I FK SCREAMED!!!!
I don't think I would watch this again since the pace is kind of all over the place and the chemistry is just not enough to keep me coming back. All in all, if you want to watch a new kind of drama and are into the omegaverse you should watch this!
