Why do I do this to myself: the series
I should've known this series would turn out this way, it's Mame ffs, SA and toxicity are her specialty so I only have myself to blame for watching it.
I had hope for this one especially after Rain and Payu's storyline, because while they had some parts that had me side-eyeing the plot, it was still watchable, possibly enjoyable even, despite it being infested with typical 2015 BLs undertones/tropes, I was still able to enjoy their plot, hell I was about to rate this, a Mame series, a 7.5/10 and that's basically unheard of especially coming from me, but then they had to hit us with the PrapaiSky storyline and now I don't wanna watch it anymore. True, I did like some of their moments but their whole relationship dynamic ticked me off and I found myself skipping a lot of their story, the latest episode just served to further solidify my dislike for their story, was it the acting was it the setting for them idk if I'm being honest, but I'm thoroughly uncomfortable watching their side of the equation so I'm dropping it, even if there's only one more episode to go, I'm not gonna bother with watching it because I know my rating for this would drop even further, so I'll keep it at that. The current rating is mostly because of the PayuRain storyline because if I'm being honest, the other couple's storyline wouldn't have gotten anything more than a 4 from me, if I had to rate solely based on each couple's part it would be:
Episode 1-7 :
Plot: 7.5/10
Cast: 8/10
Music: 5.5/10
Rewatch value: 4/10
Overall rating: 7.3/10
Episode 8-12:
Plot: 5/10
Cast: 5/10
Music: 5/10
Rewatch value: 3/10
Overall rating: 4.5/10
My final rating is somewhere in the middle if we're taking into consideration both parts. I really thought this was gonna be different, but I guess I shot myself in the foot with this one, alas, it is what it is, I hope the rest can enjoy this series, I'm sorry if I couldn't really help with anything insightful but honestly I'm super tired and I really don't know what I'm typing at this point, but have a nice day/night everyone, hope you enjoy your watch.
