Nothing of substance
<< major spoilers! only read if you've already finished!!>>Production and acting are great. Actors did their best with the script given. Great sets and video quality.
But there is absolutely no plot. A whole lot of nothing happens besides some shallow romance in my opinion. I kept expecting there to be some stakes or action due to Mr. Thee being a dangerous mob boss with guns and body guards, but there was only like one scene where his life is threatened (for reasons i still don't really understand? but tbf i was skimming through at that point). They could have at least not had every conflict resolve in 0.2 seconds.
Guy tries to hurt Peach? Thee is there immediately.
Guy tries to hurt Thee? Of course they already knew and got him.
Dad doesn't approve of love? Meets Peach and is fine immediately, despite a lifetime of telling Thee that love is weakness or whatever?
Also Thee's mom seems really nice and supportive? But he just doesn't call her because he's embarrassed? weak explanation.
Peach falls for him because of Thee's supposed tragic backstory, which is growing up lonely and having a lot of danger in his life? but the danger is no where to be found. It made it hard for me to care at all about their relationship.
I honestly cared more about aran and tawan's relationship (perthsanta) because although they had stupid and underdeveloped conflict, was at least real and emotional and i could relate it to real life couples.
I burst out laughing when they got married. What? They've been dating for what seems like two weeks maximum. And the wedding gift is surprise i adopted two traumatized children that we now have to care for full time!
Another thing that kept really ruining the immersion and emotions was the fuckass music. They would randomly play like the worst montage music at completely inappropriate times.
I did have some good laughs (at the jokes but also at the terrible plot) and Pond did a great job as Thee. I know the show is supposed to be lighthearted and fun, so maybe i'm just not the right person for this.
(also wtf the opening of the show is Thee literally trying to sexually assault aran at gunpoint and we just like totally forget that? and peach is like whatever let me date him actually???)
