Great idea, unfortunately lost in over complication
During the first few episodes, characters and their motivation was established really well, so I was really excited going into this series. I thought we were going to dive deeper into what connects these two heartbroken teenagers in the weird relationship they have begun. Instead, just as we start to see how it starts to affect them, the author started introducing more and more characters, and there wasn't just enough time if we wanted to have a closer look at any of them. Moreover, some of them were really one dimensional and tacky like "I love having sex" guy or the "my one thing in life is being kawaii" girl. Introduction of the characters changes mood from psychological portraits, to overcomplicated plot about everyone using emotionally everyone in hard to understand and completely unmotivated way.I felt like the way how the internal fights of characters were shown was also very cheap. There were many scenes when the main character was listening to her "evil self", that was her with red filter all over. Also, the evil speeches were mostly all the same, and if you really listened to the words most of them were basically about nothing in particular. They were there just to sound edgy and dark.
Overall, with a heavy heart, I dropped this drama after the 8th episode.

Lack of plot
The series talks really well about sexuality and sexual desires of teenage girls. That being the only advantage of the series. When it comes to plot, it has nearly none. The conversations between characters are written in a way to show many posible situations, outomes and solutions about sexuality, almost like in manual. Its hard to like characters when they are just a vesel for the type (asexual, "normal", promiscous), and not much character beside, which becomes more apparent in any conversation the three girls hold.In the first any situation the asexual will openly say things like "i don't get why you want to date", "i will never have sex" even though she never learned about the posibility of pople being asexual, and has only normative frinds. She just skipped whole self discovery panic time that not het teenangers have to be confident in not liking anyone, only to have the crisis emerge in episode two when its time for her arc (in ep 1 she was more of the side character).
I only watched two episodes so can't say more, but it has little value for a person thats not teenenger struglling with sex life. It is just boring.
