It almost hit the mark

I placed spoilers at the end of this review.

I was hesitant in watching this series because I was worried that each episode would not be connected to each other. I was thankfully surprised that they are all connected by the characters. However, Studio Wabi Sabi painted themselves into a corner with this series. The 7 songs, 7 episodes concept is not a bad one if it was done well. Unfortunately, the script for many of the episodes felt incomplete. Other than noted, the cast and acting was good.

Breakdown of Each Episode:

Episode 1: Would You Be My Love
This episode has a BL storyline. It had an emotionally moving storyline, but it felt rushed towards the end. See spoiler alert at the end of this review if you want more info.

Episode 2: Rhythm’s Heart
This episode has a Straight Love (SL) storyline with a little twist. It had a cute storyline. This is also where you start to see characters from the other episodes. However, this story also felt rushed. See spoiler alert at the end of this review if you want more info.

Episode 3: Remember
This episode is sort of a GL storyline. It had an interesting storyline, but the script was not the greatest. See spoiler alert at the end of this review if you want more info. This is the first episode that felt complete.

Episode 4: Once Upon a Time
This episode has a BL storyline. It also had an emotionally moving storyline which make sense because it does have ties to episode 1. It also did a great job tying the other episodes together. This is where you get to see how the characters from past, present, and future episodes are linked. Don’t stop watching when the credits appear because there is an extra scene to this episode. However, this ending also felt rushed. See spoiler alert at the end of this review if you want more info.

Episode 5: Breakup Zone
This episode has a SL storyline. Cute story but not the most exciting one. The acting is ok. This is another episode that felt complete.

Episode 6: VS Love
This episode has a BL storyline. It has an interesting storyline where the BL story is secondary. However, it works for this episode. This is also the only BL episode in this series that felt complete

Episode 7: 50% My Puppy Love
This episode has a SL storyline. The storyline is basic, but cute. This is the last episode that felt complete.

Random Note: I noticed that episodes 1, 3, 4, 5, 6, and 7 are no longer available in my location on Studio Wabi Sabi’s YouTube channel. Unfortunately, this is probably thanks to iQiyi. According to iQiyi's website, 7Project is only available online on the iQiyi app and iQ.com. I’m not liking the direction Studio Wabi Sabi is heading on how they are releasing their series.



******Spoiler Alert by Episode******

Episode 1: Would You Be My Love
The time jump was random and did not help the storyline. It also ends with an unresolved relationship between Ozone and Sun. You do learn more about their relationship in other episodes, but they could have included it at the end of this one.

Episode 2: Rhythm’s Heart
I like the nod of the problems actors/actresses have to face with fanservice. However, they missed a great opportunity exploring Rhythm’s social anxiety disorder.

Episode 3: Remember
I give them credit for having a GL storyline, but why is it the only episode that has a sad ending. I’m not against sad endings, but they could have balanced this out with some of the other episodes having it to.

Episode 4: Once Upon a Time
I can’t explain it, but the ending just felt incomplete. It was also a weird choice to have the outcome scene after the credits.
