lol people ask why some people are not liking the show and when you answer their question, you are told to shut up. this is a comment section where you are allowed to express your opinion about the show whether you like it or not.
i see that many in the comments are baffled by some of us not liking the show. im not shitting on the show because of the mundane school stuff or slow burn or not having nc scenes... but because im simply not connecting with the characters or the story. i don't find the school stuff interesting because it's simply not interesting. i blame the poor screenwriting. i don't see the chemistry, i don't feel sad in emotional scenes, or happy when there is an interaction between the boys, the scenes are all jumbled up mess, dialogues are not engaging, characters look older for highschoolers, yes it does pull you out of the scene and make acting unconvincing, eg character trying to act cute looks bit cringy to me. the show needs a good editor, there are too many unnecessary scenes, too many secondary characters that don't bring anything to the table. why so many teachers? and why so much screen time given to them? who's that guy the ml talks to on the phone? i don't even know what they are talking about? and i don't even care.
ok i truly wanted to like this series because of its similarity to stay with me. i even tried watching ep 4 twice but sorry i can't keep torturing myself. don't get me wrong, i love slow burn but not this kind of slow. it's not slow in terms of pacing, it is slow because it's dull, nothing interesting is happening, there is no chemistry, the acting doesn't look natural, don't know what the story is about. i just hope the book is better.
if only they had cast younger actors and cut the length of the episodes, it would have been so much better. i don't care about actors' age as long as they look the part, but that's not the case here.
Kohei kissed Taichi and confessed his feelings. Taichi didn't yet share those feelings and they decided to remain…
yes exactly. ok fine if the author wants to show about disability but at least be sincere about it. why make us believe it's a bl from the start and make us invested into their relationship, but then suddenly change the focus of the storyline afterwards. i actually like bl with disability but it needs to be done correctly.

everything was ok up until the girl shows up in ep 7. after that it felt like a different show. kohei act kind of indifferent to taichi. i get that he wants to be a friend now which is ok but there has to be some tension know? when he just kissed the guy and confessed to him. but he acts like nothing happened. may be he is good at hiding his feelings but we as a viewer needs some kind of subtle confirmation here and there to be able to understand what's going on in his mind. finally in ep 10 we get something. hence the inconsistency.

yes i thought so too but then the characters start acting inconsistently and sudden shift of focus on other characters makes you wonder what is even happening. the story deviates so much so that i don't even know what is going on now.
ep 10 done and still zero progression. im not even sure if this is a bl. i don't see any chemistry. they act like they are friends. didn't they kiss in one of the earlier episodes? so why are they acting as if that didn't happen? why all this misunderstanding? why are they still confused? we have only two episodes left now ! this is beyond frustrating.
the pacing is slow, the dialogue delivery is slow. even after speeding up, everything is still too slow. i tried but can't continue with this show now 🥱😴
this one had so much potential! but now they are dragging it too much. i don't understand the dialogues, can't stand kobayashi's acting, why is the girl even on the show!! everything is so messed up.
They had budget cut due to a producer who went bakrupt. This is too bad we could not watch the ending as it was…
maybe that happened during the last episodes because the beginning episodes had so many better fight scenes. I'm still sad about the last episode. we missed such a pivotal scene. i've not read the book but i was hoping to see an epic battle, then ji yang dying, turning into ashes, nan yan crying. i wanted to see their pain and emotion, then the reunion could have been even better.
this is so weird, this morning i randomly picked up a book to read, but couldn't get time to start it. then in the evening, i found out about this drama. so i started watching it and after finishing the two episodes, i went back to start reading the book. and guess what, the book is called a certain someone. i didn't know anything about this drama or the book before today.
i have only one complaint about this drama and that is the last fight scene. i just don't understand why they decided not to show anything! this show deserved a good ending. i feel bad for the actors. they gave their all but the production just had to cut corners. apart from that, the show is perfect. i enjoyed every single second of it. the whole cast deserves an applause. the best ost i've heard in a long time. it's always a big plus for me when actors dub themselves. i hope they do this more in the future.
this show is so refreshing. no unnecessary misunderstandings. no stupid love triangles. no annoying side characters. im loving every single character on the show (this has never happened to me before). awesome heroine. awesome hero. awesome cast. couple goals. friendship goals. it has love story, it has tragedy, it has mystery, it has fantasy, it has comedy. music/ost is so beautiful as well.
