it bored me to death!
on paper this looked like a light, funny show. the reviews were good and I trusted them..
I made it just until episode 3.
I know that some drama need a bit of time to start kicking in but after 3 episodes I was so bored I couldn't keep going on.
plot: I girl has a crush on a guy, which Is also a famous Mangaka.
she ends up joining his team along side other characters which help the artist complete his work.
the first 3 episodes are used to basically introduce the characters. they are over the top, cartoonish, which is not bad per se. unfortunately "cringe" humor has to be done right.
I read reviews about people holding their stomach because the show was so funny. I guess these "funny moments" come later in the drama because every attempt at humor in the first episodes lands flat.
I didn't even smirk. chuckle. nothing.
the only cute scene I can recall is the one where the main couple is holding an umbrella and still getting wet.
the characters as I said are really exaggerated which is fine, but I didn't find them likable in any way.
corny dialogues are probably the main culprit.
I don't even get why the female lead has a crush on the Magaka.
she basically knows nothing about him, even thinks he a sort of gangster (which she doesn't like) and doesn't know he is the famous Mangaka she likes.
he on the hand is like a robot. in 3 episodes I couldn't pin point any trait of his personality.
I guess he could be called "methodic" when it comes to his work.
I don't find him believable as a Mangaka either. he basically stalks people and just drawns what he sees. inspiration is one thing, a one on one copy of poses, statements is another.
I know that the show is probably targeted at a younger audience but that doesn't excuse poor writing.
Disney movies are for kids, butt adults can still enjoy the story and the artistry.
