Watch it if you have an appreciation for gaming

I started watching this show just cus, but then I saw the game and I thought it was League of Legends and I was like - YO fr? turns out it was onmyoji arena which is very similar to LOL.
If you don't like gaming/this game then I don't think you'd appreciate this show as much as someone who does. I loved this show cus of the gaming and the tournaments. The entire drama revolves around the game, so if you don't like gaming/you don't understand ppl who like it then I don't think this show is for you.
The main goal of the main leads? It's not romance, it's to win the championship, if you are watching this show, watching them play and win/lose the match and you don't like gaming you can't appreciate it. As someone who loves League and seeing a similar game play to it, the championship matches were very fun to watch.

I'm repeating the same thing, sorry, you get my point. Don't like gaming = won't appreciate this show

On the romance aspect of it:
The main characters fit really well together, not ONCE did I find any characters annoying...oh wait, other than 1 girl who liked the main guy - yk the girl who we know will never get accepted by main guy but she tries to get him, they are always annoying to me.
The guys who liked main girl however...I loved them all, especially her ex, many times I wished they would get back together even tho I was happy with the mainleads ship. I rlly liked him ngl, also the other guys who liked her/she knew were just really nice and funny and I just really liked their characters in general.

The side couple:
I'm not rlly sure what I think Jin Yang, the gf, I mean, don't get me wrong, I like her, however some things she said made me go like....uhh-okay. This girl doesn't like e-sports(fair enough) and her bf is a pro e-sport player, she's at his championship match and she's staring at her phone altho she says she's there to support her bf....Like i get that she doesn't like e-sports, but she didn't even clap when her bf won the match...I feel she was too extreme on her 'not liking e-sports' stance. If I don't like and have no clue what or how a game works, but my friend is playing in a big tournament, IF HE WINS I'LL BLOODY BE HAPPY.
So on her...other than that part I was good with her.
Her bf on the other hand....I loved him, he was so nice and fun. Loved his character.

Characters in general:
The support role characters were all rlly good, I loved every single one of them. MC's teammates? All cool. MC's gaming-rivals/friends?(like Ai Fai - the bf in the side couple. And the guys who liked her as well) they were all cool and fun and funny and YEH!

Music:
Well I love the arena music, always have always will. Just like the Leage of legends tournaments, i love the music there. VIBEEE

Lastly; the last episode was amazing. I've never been so nervous, excited, anticipated and happy at the same time before. I was one of the crowd in the show on the last episode. Cheering and screaming...it was like a real match...which ig in a way it was cus normally we watch these live matches online...

Sooo yeh, 100% watch it if you like games, if you don't like games then you can try watching it, but it won't be as interesting/fun to watch...you'll probs just skip past the matches which is just sucky to the show and yeh.

ROLLERCOASTER OF EMOTIONS

This show made me laugh like a maniac, giggle like a high-school girl and cry like some child. Never have I watched something that has made me go through so many emotions. Even in a single episode I laughed and next minute i'm crying and then i'm laughing through my tears. There were some aspects of the show that weren't too good, but the storyline was nice and the way MC's story was shown was brilliant.

Best guy in this show was Seo Jun, since he was introduced to the end I knew he wouldn't let me down, he's become one of my favourite characters now. I miss him sooo much now that I've finished the show and I hope to see him in another show soon. Love him through and through and I'm completely team SeoJun, there was not ONE thing that I didn't like about him....NOTHING. HE'S AMAZING.
Another good character was Ju-Young, he was just a nutcase and I loved him for it, he's probs one of my fav goofy side characters. He showed a very brief caring side a couple of times, but those moments literally lasted 5 seconds...max and then he went back to his crazy self

The show went through some drama - like all shows - but for some reason the drama in this show and the emotions hit me so hard and I was crying so many times during sad scenes. But this show was a ROLLERCOASTER OF EMOTIONS - One second I'm crying the next I'm laughing, this show made me laugh and smile and just AAAAAHH so much, even just thinking about it now I have a massive grin on my face and I'm trying not to laugh to myself. So I'm really glad to have watched this show and I hope you guys watch it too because you're missing out otherwise.

Honestly, I put off watching 'true beauty' for a while because I didn't think it'd be that good, even tho I'd heard people's thoughts on it, but I'm so glad that I watched it.
Many people dislike this show, but for me it was the emotions that I experienced, EVERY SINGLE EPISODE, that made me keep watching this show after the first couple of episodes :)
