I silently promised to myself there was no need for tears, I woudnt cry as the drama was less, well, somewhat less, intense than the anime and manga.Oh, how wrong I was.Especially towards the end. I dont know if you need to be a go-player, a Hikaru no go fan or what, to feel this kind of emotion. The bond between Shi Guang and Chu Ying is extraordinary in this episode more than ever.Shi Guangs egocentric yet brilliance is just beyond words and it reaches a pinacle the last 20 minutes and later in.Even though its from the series, the game itself played is (imo) so beautiful (for this you do need to be a Go player to see). I cant hold back the tears. The moment Chu Ying got his epiphany, it broke me into this pathetic bunch of tearful pieces.It is so hard to NOT love Hikaru no Go and even with the many differences and variations, I love how they managed to utterly capture the essense of the last match played and the emotions played.Just..more tissues.

They did not recover from ep14, on the contrary.What is consent? What is respect?Smart dude tries to calculate love, sure sure but to forget simple manners?Ep14 and 15 was so bad it even almost made me drop the drama

How this drama turned into a red flag in one episode T.TDisappointment doesn't even cover it.I get it, they went the dumb EQ-route but we are still talking about cultural principals here; respecting elders, the no no in barging into females household and so on.

This episode took me almost 3 hours to watch.It made me blush for the first time in like..a lifetime.Parts of it was so out of space weird but still good in a even weirder way.I must say the maincouple,KitMark, is likely the healthiest couple in ANY drama I've seen since I ever started watching a drama. Even if some here and there moments the chemistry aint always spot on, it still is.This episode was a huge feel-good-giggles-blush-omg-deathofheart-kinda mindblowing everything package.Had to pause, rewind, pause rewind, several times.It's not like ep3 of I told Sunset about You, mindblowing, it's just something else.But hey, thats just me.I rarely feel an episode deserves a 10 out of 10 but I must say, this one does.

Well, I normally would flag (in a good way) for spicy-material but in this case it's tacky and bit too much home-made-Phub-stuff that, well..its just not good.Its supposed to be a comedy of somekind but it makes me cringe and skin crawl a bit..ok, quite often.Ah, I guess we can call this cringe comedy.This doesn't get a zero or less because some acting is decent, some parts and bits of the story is ok.I like them showing the area in Fillipines, it somehow want me to travel and go there.The entire series feels like they went all in, in the spice-department, but we all know that even too much spice without some kind of proper tasting is just not good.HOWEVER, a GOOD point is that they showcase scum of earth in a proper unfiltred manner, which is refreshing I guess.

!!!!WARNING FOR SPOILERS!!!!!What a mess! I mean, no matter what, taking off your protective gear? Kissing a patient potentially with covid?A nurse without gloves?Randomly giving meds to someone, not calling ambulance or asking for professional care advice?So many wrongs. Even if its fiction, its not ok.This episode is not ok.AT ALL.And a nurse yelling at someone for not knowing someone elese allergies (due to actually jealousy? aw cmon?!)

It's an universal truth really, that teachers will always be teachers, even if their pupils surpases them.Love this episode, it really reflects upon this.Some victories are painful rather and joyous.I love even more that they are following the manga properly.

Ok, I will be honest; the production leaves A LOT to wish for. A LOT lot.I really want to be kind on that, because I know they are a young production team and all but, the way they handle camera, scenecuts and angles is very frustrating.They begin with a good-feeling-zooming in scene, only to cut halfway to pop in a different angle.There is a saying "less is more"-which I wish they could adhere to.As for acting and story, or rather, the dialogue, I like it.I love the nerdy wordplay going on and the actors deliver it well.Sure, there is some hit and miss here too, especially in the confession scenes but if you look pass it, you can enjoy the acting. New Saharat (plays Tan) does a good job delivering both emotions and lines.The others, well, they are getting there.Ep5 is a confusing episode but New Saharat lifts it abit.

The story itself it's pretty much going downhill. I haven't yet read the novel but that aside, the drama feels so lacking somehow and this episode surely hits the dull-jackpock.The best scenes didn't come from the maincouple but from the sidecouples.Another good highlight is that, thank heavens, they didn't destroy all female characters in the series, like in many other BL. I hope they continue with that, despite the typical bitchy rival that appeared.The stars of this episode is the Bunny-couple. Actually, they have basically been stealing the show entirely. In fact, I'd rather even see a series with them as main-couple.There are so much good with them:-Cuteness, rawness, realness.-The fact they are not the regular BL-muscular all flashy-couple-They are not bulldozering fastforward nor syrup-slow pushing their relationship.It's innocent but still good.A good ship simply put. AND HEALTHY!
