Perfect Match did a great job of showing the bonds between the Li family as well as throwing in comedic moments. I loved seeing how much they loved each other, if someone had a problem all the other sisters would meet up to try and help. The bonds between the sisters was the main reason I wanted to watch and why I continued to watch. Also loved how conflicts were quickly resolved it(In any other show all those relatives coming to steal the Li's assets would've dragged out for way too long.) helped me not feel as irritated with the villains and kept the show interesting.
Kangning's arc started off interesting but I quickly got tired of the back and forth. I felt like Shuohua's arc had a lot of potential that was wasted. I wish they explored more of Shuohua's character in her ways of expressing love. What I mean is that she feels different from her sisters in her relationship because of how closed off she feels. She cares about Yangxi but there's also a wall whether it be her past marriage and how much she cared for him or being the eldest daughter and feeling a responsibility to her mothers and sisters after her father's death. Leshan's arc was fun (sometimes that annoying character just needs to be beaten up no need to spend 10 eps thinking of a way to get payback) but the scheming and annoying in laws got irritating fast. I thought the relationship between her and Yang Xian was cute, glad she found someone that loved her fighting spirit instead of being with someone that she had to bite her tongue around.
Haode's arc felt like it had a darker tone than the rest of the show but that's probably just the nature of having to constantly be around the justice system. The writing for the relationship between her and Huizhao was very sweet and felt a lot more balanced than the other relationships (Fuhui, Kangning, and Shouhua are all calling the shots in their marriages). I also liked how the arc utilized Leshan because before this both Haode and Leshan were kind of just in the background. There's feels like the three oldest sisters are closer to each other while the two youngest are closer to each other (probably because everyone wanted to shield them from the reality of their situation and allowed them to run around and play).
A weak part of Perfect Match was showing the passage of time. I knew time was going by but it was hard to know how much time was going by unless it was explicitly shown. All the characters looked the exact same throughout the show and the only change in style they had was when they got married. But overall the show was enjoyable. The bond between the sisters was my favorite.
