Pond/Earth: Two, Complete Opposites
The acting styles of the two leads is like night & day.
Whereas Pond is realism personified, with a subtle, more refined demeanor, on the other spectrum we have Earth, who exaggerates every expression, in almost slapstick ways. I don’t see the connect between these two, let alone any chemistry coming from Earth. And I do NOT see the reason for the attraction Pond’s character has for Earth’s.
Oh, NO! Then there’s Samantha. Talk about over-the-top!!!
I feel that Pond is wasted in your typical university BL, whereas he should be given more vehicles like “180 Degrees…” which was a wonderful display of Pond’s deep, profound, and naturalistic acting talents.
I’m going into episode 3, but, aside from Pond’s acting and looks, there is nothing, particularly, outstanding, or distinguishing about this series, so far. It just seems like more of the same old, same old.
If there’s anything coming, which will greatly change my, current, opinion, I will add to this review at a later date. I’m not dropping it—yet.
UPDATE (after 5 episodes):
I feel that poor Pond was acting in this series ALONE. Ter doesn’t even seem like he’s especially FOND of Hill, let alone, in LOVE WITH HIM. What a disastrous 5 episodes. It was, seriously, so difficult to sit through! I did it with all the willpower I had, while playing games on my phone, otherwise, I would have gone insane!
The rest of this series had better be worth my, extreme, sacrifice!
