Because it came out ages ago when there were very few options. People who watched it then have nostalgia but it’s extremely dated now. Very few new viewers will like it.

This series drags soooooooo much! It definitely hasn’t aged well. The romance doesn’t feel real or touching.

Can they really though 😂 none of their bl shows are top tier, yes not even Not Me, which had loads of script issues and DanYok had most of the hype in that show anyway.

Offgun don’t seem to choose good scripts for their BLs.

Except that Off is much better than Gun in both CC and TT. Gun has the weakest performance among the entire cast in both those series. His fans need to stop pointing to his old work and calling him a great actor when he is phoning it in throughout the last few shows. Aside from BL, he wasn’t even that great in non BL like MM, Tor was so much better.

The product placements are pretty unobtrusive though. The show never focuses exclusively on the items or have dialogue about them, they’re just there as props. Product placements fund a lot of these shows, so unless it is spoiling the narrative, it’s shouldn’t be such a big deal.

I mean, New and especially Tay were pretty good in DBK and Cherry Magic too. I think they are good actors in general and choose pretty good scripts (unlike some of their peers I might add).

Why is this kinda the best gmmtv show of 2024 so far lol. Wasn’t on my bingo card

This is such an entertaining show and I’m loving it so much! Sheng looks a little too old sometimes, it took me out of the show a couple of times. But the chemistry is great !

I hope the season 2 thing materialises, still have trauma from Stay with me (best among all the “stepbrother” trope shows for sure. Come back to me!!)

Firstly, you need to control your emotions and think logically. You keep getting angry and attacking me personally, when I have never once infringed on your’s or others’ rights to their own opinions.

Secondly, of course I am going to refer to trends and views to analyse a show’s general reception, because those are just objective facts. I am not going to imagine a scenario in my mind and try to twist facts to fit my desired narrative, the way you keep on trying to do. Since I am in the bl fandom, posts on the views, reception and reviews of most bl series show up on my TL. I’m not sure why you think it’s such a Herculean task to know facts about bl series, for me it’s really just scrolling along my TL 🤷🏽‍♀️
If not number of views or audience posts/comments I see myself, how would I gauge the general opinion on a show? Through divine intervention? In your self centered world view, I suppose you think the reception of a series is what you think personally about it, but I don’t disregard others’ opinion like you do.

Finally, your lack of reading comprehension is more severe than I thought. When did I say I personally rank a show based on its number of views? What sense does that make?

I mean, you can say whatever you want, it does not impact my life. However much you wish otherwise , I am quite happy being me, because I am not a blind stan 😂

I am making an informed guess based on the posts people have been making here and on other platforms like Twitter. I see a lot of disappointed discourse and desperate spamming to keep trending from offgun fans. The views of this show is one of the lowest among all gmmtv BLs, so it’s not at all stretch to say that most of the people who are still watching are offgun fans who will rate this show high just because of their bias. If you want to disagree, go ahead, but my reasoning is based on logic.

I didn’t watch the last couple of episodes but those who did were mostly disappointed. Hence my very first comment “looks like I am not missing much”. You are really unable to refute any of my points with logic, no wonder you have to keep resorting to personal attacks. Sad for you 🫤

The acting is still great but this show fell off in the last couple of episodes 🫤

Will these guys ever get a good show?

I am not deluding myself or anybody else, which is why I clearly said I haven’t watched the last couple of episodes. I have based my opinion on what I did see and I found the script to be of sub par quality. Therefore I am expressing my negative opinion, which I have full right to do so. Where is the hypocrisy here? Pinpoint it exactly.

You are continually attacking me for my personal opinion and showcasing your immaturity in the process. Keep going if you want but it’s not going to suddenly make this show a success.

Oh, and I did not deem the other user’s opinion as “insignificant” to shade them, I stated that statistically, a sample size of one observation cannot be used to establish significance. Another lesson for you, that’s how statistics work.

Your lack of reading comprehension strikes again. Never have I said anything about deterring people to watch the show. Unlike you, I realize that I cannot dictate others’ actions/choices and neither would I want to.

Please point out where I said I can’t stand people disagreeing with me because this entire conversation has been you trying to personally attack me to somehow change MY opinion, as if that’s going to magically make me and the rest of the audience like this show.

I am “free” enough to do exactly what I want, and if that is leaving comments on a public page, I will continue to do so, even if that hurts user ljkmst’s feelings. Understand you are very bothered by me, but you can’t dictate the actions of strangers in life unfortunately. Good that you are getting to learn a valuable lesson.

Cool! A sample of one observation does not really have any significance, but you are as entitled to your opinion and method of rating as I am to mine 👍🏼

If you actually bothered to read my comments you would see exactly why I didn’t like the show. The acting/writing of the main character is weak and the show is all over the place. But like all thin skinned immature stans, your sole purpose is to attack anyone who doesn’t agree with your opinion. I can be in any space I want to be, and I guess you lack reading comprehension because I fail to see where I said other people can’t have their own opinions? In fact, it’s you who is trying to attack me for writing my personal opinion.

You are like a child throwing a tantrum at a public place and you know what adults do in that kind of situation? They ignore the toddler. So sadly for you, I will keep posting whatever I want. Keep crying, it only makes you look silly but it doesn’t affect my actions 🤷🏽‍♀️

I don’t know if this addressed to me or not, but let me reply since you seem so mad. This is a PUBLIC forum meant for discussion and people are going to post what they want even if they don’t agree with you. You seem immature so let me explain that’s how life works, not everyone will like and praise the same things you like.

I find the concept of blind stanning foolish and judge everything by its individual merits. I call out cultish fandom behavior whenever I see it, it doesn’t matter which fandom it is. Offgun fans aren’t special, so don’t worry, I’m not only calling out you guys.

And I criticised MLMU as a cash grab, so not sure why you think I am praising it 🤷🏽‍♀️

Only hardcore offgun couple fans are watching this show, of course they are going to rate it higher lol.

I gave up a couple of episodes back, looks like I’m not missing much 🤷🏽‍♀️ the production value is great though. They poured a lot of the MLMU sponsorship money on this I guess.

@agia ypomoni Since you replied to my comment but blocked me before I could see it, I will assume that you reflected on your behavior and realised that you were being foolish. It’s pretty immature and desperate to create sock accounts just to hate on something. I am glad you realized that.

Another word of advice, not everyone is going to agree with your opinion and that’s ok 👍🏼 You cannot expect to go through life where everyone likes what you like.

Notice how you never mentioned which version of Adachi you were referring to in your comment?

Of course I was pointing to the Japanese LA Adachi lol, because that’s the only Adachi I know. This forum is for discussing tv series, movies or animes, not the manga. Any normal person would assume that it were the two live action tv series being compared or discussed, not the source manga because that’s a completely different medium.

And yeah, I stand by my interpretation of the two live action adaptations I have seen, I won’t comment on the source manga because I haven’t read it. I don’t know what the “original Adachi” from the manga is like, but know I get zero passion/desire from the jdrama Adachi. The “art of subtlety” is meaningless when it fails to convey the intent of the storytelling.

I initially thought you seem very confused lol, but given the entire purpose of your account is to rate the Japanese version 10 and rate this show 1.5, I think it’s amply clear what’s really going on here 😂 cope harder I guess
