Finished the series last night. Really loved everything except for the Hockey trio - the sister, the captain and the professor. Would have been happy to leave them out of the story entirely.

Came across this because I was looking up other work from the cast of Alice in Borderland and this has Sakurada Dori. He looks soooo different in this series, guess that is what longer hair and a few piercings can do! I am giving it a try but the FL is coming off very spineless which isn't my favorite trope. We will see, it is a short series and I'm on episode 3.

I just love watching her on screen.

Watched through episode 12 (I decided not to binge - lol) and I'm liking it so far. I really like that the FL actual acts like an adult. I hate it when the FL behaves like an overgrown child. XZ is doing the smitten ML job justice as well. I'm not sure where the show is going with the secondary story about the hockey players, but it isn't grabbing my interest yet.

Is this going to be viewable in the United States or will it only be on Netflix in Japan?

I really don't get this behavior. I just ignore actors I don't like... why do these people go out of their way to spread hate?

Thank you for that explanation. I found it soo confusing when watching!

Watching this on Netflix so I only have through episode 6 available as of now. So happy to finally get a chance to see this!!!

I got a paid subscription to Gagaoolala and then used a VPN to watch because it is region blocked. I don't think its on Netflix at all. I don't know any free options. Sorry.

Finally watched Season 2 (with a VPN - hate region restrictions!). I haven't seen the movie, so all of the plot was new to me and I enjoyed seeing Gav and Cai together again building a relationship together. Peral was her usual over the top personality and she has grown on me over the 2 seasons and I really like her character now. Would love to see more of her adventures with Achilles. I really didn't care about Terrence or Wesley or their relationship, but that didn't detract too much from the show for me. The constant "baby" back and forth with Gav and Cai was a bit grating on me, but it is inherent to their personalities. Overall glad I watched it.

This show is a like a warm hug.

So glad I finally got a chance to watch the movie! I just loved all the domestic scenes between them. Well worth the watch if you enjoyed the tv series in my opinion.

What surprised me most is how much more I liked Tsuge in the movie because I really didn't like the actor's style of performance in the series. He was much more realistic in the movie.

Yes, I was kinda hoping he would still be confused :D

They do use it to excess.

Hmm, I didn't realize I's taken such a long break from this drama. I'll pick it up again tonight (in honor of XZ bday!)

I love this series despite Tsuge (he does often feel like he is acting in a different show than the rest of the cast)

I really want to see the extra epilogue episode, but the DVD is expensive considering it is so few episodes in total and there won't be any subtitles... I'm tempted though.

VIP on the app (as far as I can see) is about accessing extra content. The subs are on the main episodes without VIP access.

Screen mirroring from my iphone running the Youku app to my TV (Samsung) is currently working to play subbed episodes on a full size screen. Either they updated the app, or I was doing it wrong before (shrug)
