also minami sara is so freaking gorgeous, i kept thinking wow she really has that model face. kumada rinka and nakamura riko are just as freaking gorgeous wow
hmm i was pleasantly surprised. i thought it was good and this is coming from someone who watched both anime seasons, finished the manga, and watch the live action movie. i'm very familiar with this story and these characters and for the most part, i think they nailed it. i loved sawako, chizu, and yano in this. they may not be 100% accurate to the source material, but i don't need them to be. i think they did splendidly regardless.
shota, ryu, and kento though hmm. i think they were fine? they did well, but they weren't as interesting as the girls imo. in the manga i preferred watching ryu and shota, but here i preferred the girls. i wasn't a big fan of suzuki's version of kento tbh. he felt a bit...over-active? maybe because the story was so rushed, i feel like you easily could've excluded him and it wouldn't have made a big difference.
the pacing is okay. it's very very slow and yet also rushed at the same time because they put the ENTIRE story into this. there's certainly a lot of skipped sections, but without comparison i think they did a good job seamlessly fitting it into one show. the entire confession is just as frustrating to watch as it once was.
overall, i think it was a cute watch. i wasn't fawning over the couples or anything, but i had a good time watching. it was cute. it was pleasant. it definitely wasn't bad and i think they all did a good job with such a beloved story. nice to turn on and relax to. it's good, not great. 7/10.
No, I don't remember it being too scary.Felt more like thriller than horror. (I'm a scaredy cat too who found…
there's some scenes of dead bodies and blood. it gets a bit creepier later on and includes a couple minor jump scares from what i remember, esp in the latter eps. there's some deaths as well, but they mainly die from endlessly vomiting water. nothing too gruesome or gory or anything, but i'd say some parts were creepy in an unknown-entity-in-a-dark-space-station-kind-of-way.
tbh though, it's pretty damn slow and tame until around ep 4 or 5.
just watched ep 1 and that's the biggest rollercoaster of emotions i've ever had from a single ep. the acting, the story, the pacing is absolutely superb. excited to binge the rest now.
honestly i think if dfqc wasn't the mc, then orchid and changheng would have SUCH a cute story. i rarely ever get sls and tbh i still ship dfqc with orchid anyway, but i can't deny i think they had a pretty strong premise. the forbidden love mixed with the hidden romantic gestures, secret crushes, and eventual realization they were destined for each other all along is TOO freaking adorable. although, that just makes me appreciate how much this story changed from that typical kind of historical romance. obviously that love story wasn't the point of the drama, i just wanted to temporarily gush over how cute they were. now back to dfqc.
i genuinely cannot believe a chinese contestant won first in a korean show. that has pretty much never happened before from what i can recall AND it was over insanely popular hanbin as well. that's not to discredit him or any of the other members at all, but it's so insane to think about. zhanghao practically made history.
Well on my Disney + I can only see Snowdrop and Soundtrack #1 (and today I finally started Soundtrack #1 once…
hulu doesn't have a settings option to watch subbed or dubbed, you have to physically find the one that says "(Subbed)" in the title. sometimes they even put them together in one, but it'll tell you. also subs that describe actions are [CC] aka closed captioning subs. these are indeed for hard of hearing watchers, but some streaming services allow you to choose the regular english subs without [CC]. not sure about d+ or hulu, but i know netflix usually has that option.
i'm definitely the most interested in moving and the devil, but vigilante and the worst of evil sound quite good as well. pretty excited for these. surprised how most of these are action thrillers too.
