high school series with highs and lows
Overall: I struggled with the entitlement and immaturing (I did give them leeway for being high schoolers) in episode 1. Then things improved only to have it all crash down in episodes 6 and 7. Yet the writers stuck the landing. 8 episodes about 1 hour each. Aired on Netflix https://www.netflix.com/title/82761927 and https://www.oned.net/video/6399147712112 (Thailand only)
Content Warning: held against will (by their friends), non con picture taking/sharing/outing/speculation
Watch Suggestion
- read the synopsis
- episode 2 watch 33-43:10, 50-end
- episode 3 watch 10:30-36, 47-end
- episode 4 watch 5:40-7:50, 19-end
- episode 5 watch beginning-24:15, 32:15-end
- skip episode 6
- episode 7 watch 26-28:15
- episode 8 watch 8:45-21 and 26-end
What I Liked
- easy to understand premise
- cute moments
- supportive friends and family
Room For Improvement
- a club of teenage guys with zero oversight was a bit dubious but that whiteboard with the teen girl and the guys figuring out how to get her to be the one guy's girlfriend was gross
- the temper tantrum at not getting his own condo
- the "be a jerk to the person I like" trope
- the point of the club was to find love, so that rule felt homophobic
- multiple kiss interruptions
- shipping stuff was gross but glad there was an apology
- a guy on the toilet while gaming
- 8 episodes was not enough to have 2 full episodes (6 and 7) of that stuff
