*SPOILER EP 10* BOSS IS BACK WITH HIS CUTESY AND VERY DEMURE FITS ๐ฅฐ๐ฅฐ๐ฅฐ๐งก๐งก๐งก the fashion in this series might be overlooked BUT I'M LOOKING!!!! I LOOK AT EVERY DETAILS!!!!!
sigh ep 9 was kinda hard for me because it confirmed the plotline they were going for and i'm still not completely sold on it. like, why yuka prototype being junji would cause such a huge stir??? i understand when hill felt betrayed the first time he heard it; he is literally their number 1 player and is in parasocialism illusion. but the medias????????? when we think about it logically, yuka game is introduced as a game on the verge of dying on ep 1, so i don't think the media and the community would actually ride on a baseless rumor and make it trending topic ๐ญ๐ญ dead game didn't have such power ๐ญ๐ญ๐ญ the math ain't mathing ๐ญ๐ญ๐ญ
also how they handle it was totally utopian lol most game company didn't even address racism allegation or bad update patch, let alone making a press conference to address thing. the most they did was probably a statement release if the situation really demands for it. other than that????? silence..... so yeah junji, trust me, in real world you wouldn't even heard the ripple of that rumor ๐ญ ๐ญ ๐ญ your name wouldn't even get a scratch lol
BUT i understand that this is an important arc for both junji and hill to get through. literally at the beginning of this episode we saw how art, the creator of yuka, literally refused junji, who he based yuka of. it left a huge pain on junji and made him almost give up on his passion. it bleeds through his demeanor and how he handled love moving forward.
but then we see how hill, the number 1 yuka player, actually accepting the fact that junji is yuka and falling in love with him. it must've been a huge relief that the person junji loves now did not refuse this fact and accept him wholeheartedly. out of everyone, junji must've fear hill's reaction the most. i think he was so ready to repeat the same thing all over again only for hill to reassures junji over and over that he believes in junji and he would never hate him.
so yeah, i love their story, but as a gamer (albeit casual one) who engage with the culture and community, this bit of script and direction of the worldbuilding is a bit shallow and lack realism for me(which might not be that serious for others tho).
I don't see how it's a lie that Yuka is based on Junji's personality? It's a business secret; not something the…
i think it's more on the notion that everyone Knows that he likes yuka so much, to the point that he said he's yuka's bf, and junji Knows that fact so him not telling that yuka's model isnt actually jeans make it the lie? like few episodes before, hill believed that jeans was yuka's model.
also the parasocialism and idolism hill has about yuka make yuka= junji a huge deal for him. tbh i dont understand either but thinking from the perspective of a gooner well,,,,,, imagine hatsune miku was actually modeled after the developer (and male at that), some people might actually riot lol
been 4 days since ep 8 dropped and i'm still looping hill's confession scene........ it was crazy good ๐ญ๐ญ๐ญ๐ญ i dont want this drama to end ๐ญ๐ญ๐ญ๐ญ
๐ฏ agree, I was genuinely moved by the confession scene, and I'd have melted for Hill too if he'd said something…
THE PUBLIC CONFESSION AUGH yeah yeah that was not it, i agree so hard!!!!! when we think about it art supposed to have an upper hand when it comes to understanding junji (remember that he made yuka-chan based on junji???). but the way he treated junji is so far away from it ๐ญ๐ญ๐ญ he really confessed there just to rebrand his ownership on junji not actually cherishing him ๐ญ๐ญ๐ญ
I'M GOING TO COMBUST the confession scene happening between the two couple was great that i forgive the somewhat cringe beach volley scene LOL but also i want to talk how marchu's portrayal of hill in the confession scene and how i was so touched by it. like it legit felt like accumulation of feelings and emotion he had for junji. it felt so pure and real like when he was thanking junji, how he used his eyes and smile to show his feelings, it made me feel all mushy inside. AND JUNJI HAD TO FREAKING ASK "Did you say it to me? Or to Yuka?" like BLUD LOOK AT HIM..... HE WAS ALL OVER YOU........ SHAKING MY HEAD SO HARD.....
THANK GOD hill was being decisive this episode that he just straight up kiss junji. WE CHEERED WE CELEBRATED WE SCREAMEDDDDDDD. i love that the kiss was just so tender and so THEM. i repeated it like 5 times and still fucking cried. it was just sooooo emotional ngl.
not really that excited with next week preview ://///// i need hilljunji to kiss more.... that bitchy mr. ex who can't accept defeat should just go to hell ://////// he was fun for a while but not him literally crushing down his previous game that he KNOWS was important to junji like it's nothing. have some dignity and let things go eurgrhghrgrgh (ALSO i think the plot points of junji being yuka's model and it being portrayed as negative thing is so weird ngl)
best thing that happened in this drama other than koji speaking in thai? junji's fashion choice โจโจ would like to thank the hair & make-up and stylist team working on junji's wardrobe; he got taste in latest fashion, very good in mix-and-matching in business casual theme, looking very approachable yet very chic, and most importantly, โจ an outfit repeater โจ
HUGE shoutout to the team who is not afraid of making junji wear flowy colorful shirt, daring polka dot, chic jeans, ribbons and bows, pretty tweed, and many more to come! so excited to see more interesting pattern, materials, and even cutting that fits junji's very chic yet casual theme!
naur this is so true i want to squish hill so bad for big chuck of the series but ep 7 is when everything fall…
yes!!! looking back at earlier episode make me think a lot of their interaction like did junji actually got interested in hill because he said he's yuka's lover (which basically him lol) or was shutting down yuka game is actually a hard decision for him too; it opens up endless think pieces. so excited how they will continue dancing around each other toes and finally get together ^^
