I've finally finished this absolute masterpiece! Unfortunately, the last ten episodes were pretty boring and felt underdeveloped compared to all the crazy and entertaining things that happened at the beginning. It felt as though the director had run out of ideas.

Nevertheless, this drama features some of the most incredible, campy, creative and random scenes that I've ever seen. There are magic mushroom trips, guns, aliens, car chases, gladiator-style fights, tentacles, moments of blatant homoerotic tension between in-laws, journeys back in time, visibly fake props, kinky arrangements, and countless kisses. There is A WHOLE DRAGON. There are also some unexpectedly solid acting moments, so I really can't complain.

Encompassing every possible genre, from sci-fi to romantic comedy to psychological horror to shameless smut, this drama is the very definition of pure entertainment. If you decide to watch it, don't try to make sense of the plot or you'll be swallowed by the giant plot holes. Just turn off your brain and enjoy it <3

does someone know what's the song that comes with some of their kissing scenes? (the train one in ep. 6, the bed scene in ep 9 etc) it's electronic music and there's a voice repeating something like 'shake your body', I can't find it anywhere :(

WHERE ARE MY LESBIANS? :(

Yes this might be why it felt off! Sometimes it feels like he's acting very out of character. But also, it's true that we still don't know him very well. Maybe the last episodes will explain it.

Okay, so, first: it's a good take, it makes a lot of sense and it actually explains the lack of sexual tension. So, I've now changed my mind about that first kiss.

But, still, the show didn't feel shocking to me. That's not the feeling I was trying to convey. It didn't feel 'off' just because the characters are obsessive and irrational, or because the scenes are meant to be uncomfortable.

For reference, one of my favourite BLs is To My Shore, which has plenty of dark, uncomfortable moments and obsessive characters. I've started watching BLs last year and it was during the Chinese renaissance of toxic black flag dramas, so I don't even associate BL with fluff that much.

So, as much as I value your take, I think this 'off' feeling also comes from something other than the discomfort that's being created on purpose. Again, maybe something about the pacing, or the acting, or the dialogues.

Unpopular opinion but I didn't like it. People are praising the chemistry and the acting but to me it felt rushed, with the characters acting in incomprehensible ways just to make the plot advance... also for the NC scenes, they were so random, particularly the first ones. All that intensity with almost no tension leading to the moment, what a strange combination. I'm not sure what felt off, if it was the dialogues, some of the acting, or the plot, but I didn't enjoy this.

Well, it seems like you've misunderstood the purpose of my comment. I'm not 'stirring the shit' just for the love of the game. Yes, is inflammatory, because that's what pushes more people to read it and engage with it. The way you did, for example. Education works best if it's not boring. I believe ragebait can be used for good. Anyways, it's good to take a pause, enjoy your hot guys :)

Girl. Neutral connotation. Did you even read my comment? I have no issues with dubcon and noncon, one of my favourite BLs is To My Shore lol. What weirds me out is when people watch it and they're not able to correctly identify it (or accept they are in fact enjoying it?), which happens especially when the characters aren't outrightly portrayed as negative. That's an issue that goes very well beyond the fictional world. I remember this girl describing a character as a 'good man' just because he was from an older movie that painted him in a positive light, despite having him act in an abusive way. Guess how blind she was to abuse in real life, despite identifying as a feminist. Also, lack of consent isn't only shown in NC scenes, I'm sure you know it's not just a sexual thing.

Oh if you're criticising the shooting I agree with you. Something was off.

I mean it really depends on the story. I've read omegaverse with dry humping in it. The rules change quite a lot depending on the writer.

Please educate yourself on sexual coercion and on consent. Again, you can like the show while recognising its characters aren't great people (and without insulting strangers online). Have a good day.

the concept of being able to enjoy a show without losing all your critical thinking skills must be really foreign to you, I'm sorry about it

praising predatory men for their 'idgaf attitude' is definitely a choice

A fun fact for you: frotting is when men rub against each other, while frottage describes people of any gender doing that :3

pretty much everything he does to thin is nonconsensual; it's a plot demand, because if thin were like no I don't want this and phob were like oh okay gotcha I'll mind my own business then the plot wouldn't advance. but it's still awful behaviour.

also god please make them lesbians

phob is so awful wow

I agree. Frottage is so underrated and underrepresented, it's nice to see it. It also captured the frantic energy of the moment really well. I didn't love the way it was shot, though.

*frotting intensifies*

If they're bonded no, they don't cheat. But you can be in a relationship with an omega without marking them, I think. Cheating does exist in the omegaverse.
