Mira Ep 32LI Boze and Qingyi teamed up to get the evil factory location.The whole sequence of LI Boze farewell makes me broke cuz we know that he is the most upright,naive, innocent,kind person in the show, becomes a mole, deceiving and ruthless person when the country asks for.Boss. Hai sang farewell song for both father and son.Qingyi got factory location from Li Boze.It is the most heartbreaking moment where Qingyi said " Second brother, it's time to come home".I love they shows the hospital scene with two baby boys and two nurses giving blessings to them.It is the important scene I need from the show 😭😭.One of the most touching scenes of the drama is the torchlight of General Tang squad.It's the real unsang heroes scene cuz you don't know them through out the series yet you deeply felt for them.And Teacher Ye sacrifice.I can't stop crying 😭😭😭

akaringo Nothing quite like this one istg, they done this PERFECTLY💯 The confession scene, the bath assassination scene, even a loving embrace hurts SO GOOD 😭💔 my parents please be nice to eachother, I cant bear to watch yall suffering anymore. A major problem they do in recents eps is that they dont even focus on conflict resolution no more, He Zhen unwanted marriage? Sun Yun'er and the big boss (forgot his name) grand plan? Ziyi ??? Bruh how could they left this major plot points roaming free in the wild. (I hope He Zhen didnt actually marry though, girly want to be a career woman and the whole universe is against her🥀)

shriek And the award for the worst parent of recent BL history goes to Phatsa‘s father. — unbelievably irresponsible and neglectful parent, no wonder Phatsa was so hyper independent at the beginning. — aside from this horrible truth we learn about this was the best dialogue with the most information we‘ve got so far. Which pisses me off. Also that Phatsa still seems to have a good connection to his father despite him being gone a lot… he must want that little love he gave. Which, to me, explains why Phatsa is so okay with Nakhun being at work all the time. — Why did Phatsa seemingly never ask about his mother? Even if he did ask the father must‘ve told him something different or deflected until Phatsa gave up asking. It also struck me as odd that the father had zero reluctance to tell Phatsa everything now. At least some hesitance at the beginning of the conversation or a little more struggle when he talks about the mother. Idk. — I wished we would‘ve gotten a little snippet about the father in Episode 1, something like: Ongsa: „Is your father back from his job?“ - Phatsa: „Not yet, it still takes a month or two until they‘re done“ - O: „That long? Don‘t you feel lonely by now?“- P: „Why? I have you and (the other café guy whose name idk)“ etc. — What I‘ve read from other Episode Reactions here is that people start to get annoyed with Nakhun. He‘s definitely not acting like a bonded soulmate. Phatsa quote: „You haven‘t forced me. You just want me to stay here“ <- this feels like a good summary. Because yes, Nakhun just wants Phatsa to stay at home like a pet. And now that Phatsa voices his feelings Nakhun doesn‘t really acknowledge them, just „don‘t overthink it“ or he has to put in effort into this relationship. All this points towards „not soulmates“. Phatsa has a better relationship with N’s mother. — I‘ve watched this episode twice now and the first time I definitely was just as excited about a possible pregnancy as the bodyguards, but now? I hope he‘s not. They are still strangers to e/o, strangers that had sex. That‘s the only part where the bond/soulmate part works. And that‘s just not it. Not for an ABO relationship nor in reallife, you can tell yourself 1000x that you‘re soulmates it still won‘t come true. — the bodyguard telling about the partners health condition is fine but directly concluding that he might be preggers is wrong. — Watching it the second time it feels disgusting. Never before has Nakhun shown such interest and glee towards Phatsa as he is now that he shows pregnancy symptoms. Phatsa himself is super confused about the sudden happiness of Nakhun. PLUS he acts like he knows something about Phatsa that Phatsa doesn‘t. The staff too. Uuuh if someone would do that to me I would get so mad. Plus Nakhun knows about Phatsa‘s lack of ABO knowledge. Thin ice, Nakhun, thin ice. Your nest can‘t cool me down, the ice keeps melting. — Still have the same opinion: the „father looking for a pure omega“-plotline should‘ve started in ep. 2. Now it‘s boring. — *sigh* Ongsa and Nakhin. My problem children. That first scene with the bad cooking. I would‘ve scrapped the whole scene — Their date was cute and Nakhin showing him the closest smell to his pheromones is very considerate but yeah the dialogue ruins it. It might be better and more nuanced in Thai but the english translation is very repetitive. It feels like they have restarted the scene several times with different dialogue options and then just cut it together. — OxN have slightly more chemistry in bed than outside. — . — (boah, that was a lot of thoughts. Probably will edit it shorter in the future. If you‘ve read until here: thank you)

I'll give credit to the show for having YuTu's incredible lack of social & emotional skills be consistent. Even when he finally gets his moment to finally apologize and confess to Jingjing, he says all kinds of dumb things and nearly botches it. At least he does sort of get it out. I'm glad she decides to keep him at arm's length for a bit. He hurt her really bad and needs to do at least some penance! Plus, his whole life he has been the one the girls have been pursuing and I think that has contributed to his self-absorbed nature - he has literally always just taken girls for granted. So it's good for him to learn what it's like to be pursuing her.

KJ2025 It’s been a mixed bag helping Wu regain memories. The shooting incident brings the most emotional memories from past and present. He subjects Zhang to a trial by the people and finds that he is ruthless with martial law but does not abuse his power to harm innocents. This pacifies him. Zhang makes a group to go find Xumi realm. He, Xiao Yu, Qi and Wu will find the entrance. They enter via the shaft in Teihai house and redo the opera stage where Wu gets to fight last Peng parasite. They find the Japanese campsite but it has been burned to ash leaving no clues. Wu’s cell revealed his notes and Wu’s fear of the place but nothing else. They find a wall identical to the tower wall but not. The Xumi Realm tablet is much newer than it should be. The area has all the spells on the wall Hatoyama bragged about mastering. One is left they had not heard of, revitalizing the tower. This is done by nourishing the seed with the right combo of water and fire. Topside Gen Huo has replaced the missing Zhang with his man. He is claiming cult infiltration and has enforced a curfew and martial law. Zhang’s second has sent two on a secret mission. Huo explores from the other side. She knows the water route of the caskets so enters from that way. She follows Wu’s marks and is the first to run into the much larger Zainiangniang. She figures out the entrance she wants is under water so fearlessly dives in. The episode ends with the four reading the spells and trying to get the right combination to nourish the seed. For once, other than the creature, there is much more activity topside than underground. They have still not revealed what Japan’s repercussions will be for the lost auction.

NoirRoex As stated before, the guest star, Xu Qiao Yue, the student did some heavy dramatic carrying of this drama. She confesses seeing her friend suicidal. There is an abrupt switch into this character giving a rowing speech about justice. The edit and music is too abrupt to ignore. However, the actual speech and the scenes the speech is laid over are appropriately dramatic and make her circumstances even crueler. For the sake of his art, this man felt more inspiration when she got defiled by 3 additional men.We cut to a scene of her in the office acting contrite and the Female lead wraps it up by saying she arrested the 3 man who assaulted her. Here's the leap. The female lead says she could not have possibly learned how to do this by herself and someone must have helped her. *Eye roll for me* and I think back to the original suspects quote "Officer, on what grounds do you say that?" Ugh. This girl, by the time she hits the camera, NEVER, exuded naive energy. She always seemed smart and calculating when we see her as a witness after the murder. They can assume the victim is a minimum a pervert cause he moved from a lofty art gallery to a studio in a poorer area to cheat on his wife with young adults but she, a student at college, had to have backing rather than something she heard or saw. The girl tells her someone with a lighthouse photo contacted her on social media. They somehow knew what she was going through.Then we get a scene with a female lead with her captain. "Why did this rich man with status prey on these girls?" "Why did the victims of assault not trust us to do their jobs?"*Eye roll* If anyone asks that question, it should not be the leader of this team? She is supposed to be seasoned enough to give the answer. Moreover, Cheng Mo, subordinate gave the answer in the interrogation room when they were throwing out leaps of logic at the first assault victim. She can't be a seasoned leader with a newly formed squad and asking cadet questions. That should have posed by someone less seasoned. Sorry, as an audience member she lost credibility as a leader. Her character isn't polished or grounded and it's literally all over the place for the sake of plot. It's frustrating because you can see effort is put into the drama. But you can't have the person who leads you through the drama be this erratic in levels of intelligence and naivete. I'm not saying its the actress, but I think the problem is this character sucks up the oxygen in the room. The other characters can perform to the potential of the drama when she is quiet and they are not trying to work with her character neurotic energy.Not fed up yet. Cheng Mo might get me through it. Cheng Mo has his welcome party but he seems to be distracted by the female lead. Episode ends.6.5/10 - the drama got better. Case resolved. But the female lead's writing is kind of an issue that might continue to hurt the drama.

Karmander When I started this show, it was definitely giving a cliché, generic vibe. But as the show moved on I was again and again proven wrong.First of all, Ahn Ha Young is damn gorgeous. Like she definitely has one of the unique faces you're gonna witness in this industry. Her beauty almost distracts you from the story at times.Also, just got to learn that this is her first lead role as a female, and I can say she knocks it out of the park with her charming personality, perfect for the rom-com energy this drama needed.She can act. Such a precious smile. But boy, was it hard watching her cry in monumental scenes. I Loved her work in "Teach You a Lesson" and was very eagerly looking forward to this project. And I can attest that the wait was worth it.Secondly, coming to the male leads. I have loved Jung Hae-In's work in D.P. and Love Next Door. He's got the acting chops and manages to balance the nuances of the character from Gangster to Shy Boyfriend pretty effortlessly.The bigger but a welcomed surprise was the villain here. Baek Sang-gil is not the usual antagonist provided with a tragic backstory just for the sake of the story, rather his character serves as a good example to the phrase "a product of the environment".I also find it amusing that his character and Tae-Ha have almost the same line of events yet the path they choose draws a huge contrast between them, even though they are bound together through a cruel twist of fate.Additional characters were so enjoyable. S.E.S Ladies especially have my heart. And his subordinate who joins the village later was also surprisingly funny. Glad that the doc and nurse made up at the end, haha.The show never misses on its comedic beats, and always finds a way to deliver humor unexpectedly. The gentle taps on the back, whenever the characters hug are so cute. I have no idea if this was a thing for this show, or if it's a K-Drama thing, but I love it.After the 10th episode, I was unsure of the ending and felt this might become another case of dragging the story which usually happens in various K-Dramas. Because by that episode, the story had reached a perfect closure.But to my surprise the last two episodes were not just an extension of romantic leads having cute moments. Rather the story of the villain was simply not finished, and as we found out in the finale, he had a lot of baggage.The show manages to wrap up the story in 12 episodes even with a deserved wedding scene by the end.Tae-Ha doesn't hate rains now, as they don't remind him of his sorrowful days anymore rather he embraces it prioritizing his happiness for the first time.Eun-Sae has a family now and no longer wishes for materialistic things to bring her happiness.Wholesome ending. Long live the people of Taffy village.

The dialogue and acting of Nakhin and Ongsa are the worst. I want to be excited about this AlphaxBeta but they make it extra hard. — Naphit is kinda submissive towards Phatsa now. Interesting. Should be super suspicious to everyone who witnessed it but nah, not important now, we‘ll activate it once it has to be important. — Nakhun keeps being insensitive with what he says and doesn’t seem to notice. But hello?? Phatsa, you can open your mouth and say something, too?! — The whole thing with the father searching for a pure Omega should’ve started in episode 2. Now it’s so boring. We know it’s Phatsa. (That Nakhun never asked about his test also surprises me) The father respects NxP‘s bond and moves on to Nakhin. The only thing that could happen now is how the father will react once he learns about Ongsa. Will he be mean, cold or aggressive? Will he move on to Naphit? Or will Ongsa break up with Nakhin? Or will he learn about Phatsa before and be extra satisfied because that‘s been his plan all along? We already know that in the end everything will turn out in his favour. 🙄 — Amintra and Nakhin’s conversation was interesting. But up until now I could’ve never guessed they are childhood besties. — Sangnuea and Naphit meet. Was Sangnuea in heat here? He’s not wearing his „protective“ scarf anymore (as if that would help). Curious to learn what happened between the two. — What do you mean Ongsa‘s mother knows NNN‘s mother? In my head that should change a lot. Is that the reason Ongsa and Nakhin have known e/o before? Or will this (or the banana cake) be the protection/bonus once the father learns about him? — That we only now get to see how Nakhun follows Phatsa‘s scent, in a snail‘s pace, is annoying me. (You can‘t make me believe he found Phatsa by scent in Ep. 1.) And how the scent was shown is giving cartoon. — We are not moving forward at all with the MCs. Phatsa has become this sulky bebi and Nakhun keeps being an insensitive wall but with a conversation about the same topic as last ep. and some sex all‘s good again. And with the SCs we‘re moving in huge steps where you feel like you‘ve missed half the story.

IrenaK A tough time for Tingyun. She had to learn a completely different lifestyle, and luckily by the second half of the episode she already managed to pick up a thing or two from Ling. And how could she not? Ling was injured because of her, Sen ran away somewhere... At least they found shelter in a shed, and coincidentally enough, it was occupied by the real Imperial Envoy and his guards. 🤨I did find it funny how those guards just watched Ling aura farming until he couldn't anymore, and only when one thief was left, one of the guards interfered... AND thank God he did, actually! Because DAMN, even though I knew Ling has protagonist plot armour, I really thought for a second they killed him! 🫣😮💨🙏 (yeah, trauma from that other drama is still there) Her choosing to use the Imperial Envoy and help him with the investigation to gain some benefit out of it? I think that was a quite smart move. And even if there's a possibility that it might not work the way she hopes it would, it's still better atm when Ling is injured, needs medicine, and they are starving. 😌I am giggling a little that they are now pretending to be fiancés, replaying in my mind those few moments we got with them in the shed — the ear scene, them whispering to each other so close... Nice! 🤭😏 The relationships in the Yu family will be interesting to see, because I sense there might soon rise some tension, especially from the pressure Madam Yu will put on the newlyweds. 🤨😬

nero truong that was , , , a really good ending actually fvbjimdfjbfe. now i like how slow it is at the start it feels methodical because this entire operation is in her hands to move the pieces along. this is also one of the episodes where you truly can’t feel sorry for the assailant. we were sitting with his perspective in the beginning half but you can see how selfish he is at every turn. even if we are positioned to feel sympathy for him & indulge in his paranoias you can’gt actually ignore that he probably got himself in this mess for a reason ｡･:*:･ﾟ★,｡･:*:･ﾟ☆ ｡･:*:･ﾟ★,｡･:*:･ﾟ☆ akiko was nicde i like seeing how cold & vengeful a grieving family could be. i see she’s listed top+billed for this episode which i think is cool. tehy established early a pattewrn of the main+characters being the perpretrators before breaking that apart & she does technically instigate a death ，i like it it’s very layered ｡･:*:･ﾟ★,｡･:*:･ﾟ☆ ｡･:*:･ﾟ★,｡･:*:･ﾟ☆ i thought him walking out of her office would’ve been a great place to openly end things. because she laid out several options & he’s suffering every one of them. so the finale made me a little remissed until we find out akiko was bluffing. that was phenomenal. that was great. that’s also really cool to end this without a single involvement of the police. it clears up any possible holes one could think of that he also wouldn’t have been able to think of. he was literally forced into a corner & immediately started lashing out. loved it. this ended the anthology in a great way. there are a lot of highs for this show if you can get through some lows ，i really was able to emerse myself into it.

We got confessions of feelings. Nakhun is very blunt with how he tells his truths. (I guess he got that from his father) Which leads to jealousy and sulking on Phatsa‘s part. — Phatsa & Nakhun seem to have couple necklaces. When did that happen? — The conversation between Nakhin and Ongsa was a struggle to get through. I could feel the punctuation. (mainly too long pauses between questions and answers. No flow. It felt unnatural.) Not helpful for their chemistry or the weight of their words. Also all the angles that they used in this scene. Really disliked all of it. — What‘s Japan‘s purpose in this series? I haven‘t found it yet. Generally all the children that have appeared so far. — Cool to see the shared pain again & confirming it goes both ways. And them figuring that out together. It still feels inbalanced. Being shot seems to be less/equally as painful as a finger cut. — The thing with Phatsa vs Naphit... I assume it is to show the Omega trait of calming tension as well as the Pure Omega power Phatsa has. — It was interesting to see the pheromone „fight“ (most interesting scene of the whole episode). Naphit showed defeat. Will he be submissive towards Phatsa now?— Amintra is still a little mystery to me. What‘s her purpose? And her & her assistant‘s storyline is not adding much to the ‚plot‘ — Now that Phatsa and Nakhun have confessed their feelings to one another it is very inconsiderate and insensitive of Nakhun to have less than minimal communication with his bonded soulmate. That seems so counterintuitive especially for soulmates.

miffyluvr This episode was a rollercoaster of emotions! For an angst lover like me, i had the best time everAnd can we talk about how phenomenally Dew and Tee portrayed their emotions during their confrontation scene? My heart was aching along with their characters :( Thun is about to catch some hands ngl that reporter is getting on my nerves more and more the show goes on

Duty First, Kiss Later Episode 3

estar well i didn't expect Takoi to go in for a kiss... i thought he would suggest dating or something light, but looks like he is gonna jump into the deep end lol.... & i know other's like Moriko, calling her a fujoshi - which personally i don't find cute - cause in their reality, like in real life that's basically being a busybody & poking ur nose into someone else business. if Takoi had turned to her for advise - then fine, great even. then be a supportive friend that's hyped about ur work-partner having a potential gay wooer. but as is, to me it's a turn off. same with the whole "mama" situation. 1st off can't stand women that every man they see they gotta get all flirty, touch, feely with - she was the reason Takoi almost got hurt, why antagonize a volatile ex-partner?!? so am glad she went to apologize to Shiono, but did Takoi need her dragging him in to her establishment to give him liquid courage??? he was on his way to Shiono before she stopped him. like plz with this added fluffy, that is just filler & adds nothing to the mains plot - how much did we even get of the mains?!? as this only 10 ep's & each ep is hella short this a waste of screen time & annoying IMO
