I can't stress enough how absolutely obsessed I am with the fact that Ritsu just accepts that he and his platonic roommate apparently share a bedroom. Like, maybe in the back of his mind he always suspects there's more to the relationship. But he never really questions it until he finds *that* photo... As if what they're doing in that is more intimate than the moment when Fumiya is literally ready to get into bed together like it's the most natural thing in the world and Ritsu is simply like "? :)" and then immediately moves on. Under different circumstances this might irritate me because it doesn't really make any sense but here I just find it adorable and see no flaw in it. That's all.
I don't even necessarily always need a happy ending to be satisfied with a story but with this one I need the happiest, fluffiest ending ever or I won't recover.
I desperately want to rate this a 10 but I know from bitter experience that it brings bad luck to give a good rating before a show has ended. So I will wait. You are welcome!
My issue with some Thai shows is that they seem to drag on for unneccesarily long and it loses quality as a result meanwhile my issue with a lot of Japanese shows is that they are too short. I wish they would split the difference! I just realized this is 6 episodes instead of 8 and I'm horrified.
It kind of blew my mind when I realized this is by the same director/screenwriter who did The Novelist... Now it makes COMPLETE sense why I love it so much.
smooth production is important for every story.. see NLMG has all ingredients but still things don't flow smoothly..Additionally,…
Sure I just meant it might be considered less important compared to things like decent acting and a decent story. And I know it's a budget issue but this show really made me appreciate how nice it is when things just flow.
One thing I REALLY appreciate about this show is how smooth the production is.
It might seem insignificant but it really means so much for my overall enjoyment that the editing, soundtrack and little things like that is on point. It makes it a joy to watch and is just super refreshing. Maybe it's partly because I've been fed up with the quality of other shows I've been watching lately lol.
adding to the negativity.. the joke is, the source material actually had some really good content to be adapted…
@dizzyjaze Oh interesting. Personally I think it has something to do with both. When a scene sometimes feels lackluster even with Boun and Prem's great chemistry, or when they have a tendency to act slightly overdramatic at times (at least for my taste), I blame that on a bad call by the director. But I'm biased too because I'm not a fan of New in general from the works I've seen.

I agree with everything you said. Sadly. New, the director, has a "gift" of taking a scene that actually sounds great on paper and then somehow ruining it by having it completely lack intimacy and depth. Obviously there were some nice stand-alone scenes too, not everything was a mess. But as much as I adore Boun and Prem (and that's a lot), their chemistry wasn't enough to make this series enjoyable to me...
We can only imagine what this show could have been like with a different director.
