All I Asked Was That Itt Suffer
I only got through episode one because I read the synopsis and knew Itt was gonna get his shit rocked eventually. I have never had a show push me to hate a character so effectively. I was s a l i v a t i n g for Itt to be punched or slapped or fucking pushed off a bridge. I was talking to my screen every five seconds to reiterate what a trash person Itt was. I was watching at 3x speed half because Itt is insufferable, half to hurry up and get to whenever he gets hit, specifically by Day. I went back to episode one after getting a quarterway through episode two to watch Itt get punched again. I agreed with Itt on his father only liking Day because Itt is useless. I yelled at his parents to scrap this one and just try again with a new kid. I considered my hatred of the phrase, "spare the rod, ruin the child," and concluded that maybe there's some truth to it because someone, ANYONE (Day. Make it Day) needs to hit Itt, and a lot. I rewatched the fight scene because Itt gets punched but not punched enough. I do not know if Itt can actually ever be punched enough, but I want everyone he comes into contact with to try.
OK. So that's where I'm sitting after an episode and a half. I am waiting for whump. I am excited for Itt to have a bad time. I do not need a resolution, or for that bad time to end. The entire series could just be Itt having the worst time and I would be fucking euphoric.
IT IS HERE ???
The joy I expected is exactly as sweet as I hoped, I feel so calm and collected now. There is something tacitly hilarious in Itt saying he's not crying, Day saying he is crying, and there being nary a tear within two square miles of Itt's face. Also, a lot of suspension of disbelief is required for all the bits in the hospital, the amount of things that just.....wouldn't ever happen is staggering. I've been grinning non-stop regardless though, because nothing can harsh the high of Itt being treated in accordance with the golden rule. Heaven is a place on earth and all that. If you don't hold grudges, this is probably an okay thing to watch. Me personal, I'm watching at 3x for everything in between Itt's feelings or body taking damage tbh.
Kamol just came in an f'ed things up, if Day is nicer to Itt because of this Imma start a riot. But I also might riot anyway because of all the flashbacks like bro pick a time period and stay there, PLEASE. Day is still mean, I'm jived. Kinda wild that everyone is so sympathetic to Itt when everything Day says makes sense??? Like he deadass can't do shit, and yeah, Day spoiled him, but Itt can't do.....literally anything??? As a grown ass adult??? The sad music is wild because I'm just continously agreeing with Day lmao
I'm now about to be on episode five and it looks like things are gonna get better for Itt. I can't say I'm happy about that, or satisfied with Itt's current suffering (reviews really had me thinking it'd go above and beyond.... alas) but I'm actually somewhat invested in seeing where this goes now instead of just being fueled by hatred of Itt. Never fear though, that's still very much there. I'm actually kinda concerned because I thought there'd be a snowballs chance in hell of Itt redeeming himself at least but I sincerely cannot see myself ever liking this character. I like Day, but only just?? Idk everyone kinda sucks here, actually, I might like Day just because he's currently like karmic punishment for Itt. Extremely mild karmic punishment.
Every time I almost smile at a cute moment there's a flashback to Itt being a shitshow that kills any good feelings ?. I'm tapping out halfway through ep. 7 because I suddenly just stopped caring?? If Itt is gonna have a good time and Day is gonna respoil him, I don't have much incentive to care about the plot. Which is minimal regardless so oh well lmao
