Not bad, just kind of boring

When I first started this, it didn’t blow my socks off, but I wanted to learn more about the characters and their stories. I enjoyed their character dynamics, and I liked Mhok.

My main complaint is the pacing. The plot was full of fluff and filler that wasn’t necessarily bad, but also wasn’t adding anything. It had a bunch of overdone tropes and cliches with just okay delivery. I liked all the characters, and they all felt grounded and well-rounded. There wasn’t much character growth, and a lot of it is crammed into the last episode. Eventually it just becomes mundane and expected, causing the episodes to drag on. 10 minutes off each episode would have helped a lot.

The acting here was MUCH better than Vice Versa. Mhok was probably my favorite part of the series. Sea did surprisingly well playing a blind character. Despite the acting upgrade, there were still times I didn't love them on screen. Overall the whole cast did well. The pairing between Night and Porjai worked really well, and by the end of the series they were my absolute favorites.

About the controversial breakup choice, I thought it actually made sense. Mhok and Day needed to grow up on their own and figure out where they stand as individuals. What annoyed me more through a good portion of the series was the mom character, who I found selfish and her writing kind of half-assed. Most of the time her actions made sense, but for a good part of the time she also worked as a plot device to add drama.

The production was nice, and I liked the use of a wide aperture for the blurry effect. It was a good touch. It had some good moments, but at some point I was just waiting for it to be finished. A decent watch, but didn't live up to the hype. I wouldn't recommend this to a friend, mainly because I would have trouble remembering its existence, but wouldn't advise them against watching it if they wanted to.
