“How many tears must water the ground before the seeds of hope are finally found?”
As much as I love Naran and Lert’s relationship, Naran telling Dao the truth was the best thing he could have done. This was considering the fact that Dao was willing to do anything to make sure that Naran could ac
Huayong is so shameless I can’t. The way that he is so down bad for Shaoyou needs to be studied.
I noticed at that one scene where they basically switched colours. Huayong was wearing black and Shaoyou wearing white. That really stood out to me especially because Huayong when he was pretending to b
Wow, now that’s how you do an nc scene.
I have never seen two people I have more chemistry whilst they are going through a divorce.
The way I thought that Lamp would be a horrible person towards Loft after finding out about her relationship with Pure but his response was the complete opposite.
An
Period dramas will always have a place in my heart and the series demonstrates why ever so exquisitely.
Here is another beautifully told story of the cost of love and hate and how at times they are different sides to the same coin. It's all rooted in passion, pain and the most significantly longing
Is love ever worth so much pain and heartbreak?
I hoped for a happy ending but in some way I felt like I was deceived and made forcefully to accept the reality of things. The amount of tears that I actually shed when that final scene happened, you wouldn’t understand. They wanted to be together for
"What isn't remember never happened."- Lain was willing to press that reset button and give them all a chance at life without her. A life without the chaos that she might have unintentionally brought with her. It was really bittersweet when Lain meets Alice again.
What would happen if there was a complete digitalisation of the world? Is digital connection is a misinterpretation of what it means to be truly connected?
"I'm a program designed to destroy the barrier between the wired and the real world."
From ep1 to the middle of ep2, I actually thought that Seo Guwan was the killer but I knew that it was too good to be true. To have them reveal the truth and solve the mystery so early on would be strange. It might sound a bit outlandish but why am I so suspicious of Choi Jungho, there is definitel
No matter where I look, I have to try to convince myself that this show will have a happy ending but with everything that has been going on the end is looking tragic. Please prove me wrong, I beg of you. I can't accept them to get a sad ending after all the pain and heartbreak they have gone throug
“Everything that I thought was good for you turned out to be a sharp knife that stabs you.”
“In the end, I couldn’t tell if I’m lying to him or to myself.”
- these two quotes are definitely two sides of the same coin
Considering how short this show is, it does not feel rushed in anyway. The plot
Glad to see that they went through with the direction of making Naran reveal the truth, therefore sticking to his morals. I was nervous that they were going to make him blinded by love or something.
Victor, you are a sweet boy it’s time to come to your senses, your unrequited love will only leave
I am a little upset that again we had little development when it came to Gao Tu and Shen Wen Lang but we got to see yearning Hua Yong so I didn’t mind too much.
At this point I want a season two because with five episodes left, I fear they wouldn’t give us a satisfactory ending.
This might actually be the one of best episode in the entire show. Their transition from lovers to enemies was portrayed so well that I began to feel sorry for the circumstances that they are in.
“Therefore as long as I can rule the world, I can have him” - I have never seen a person have such a w
The majority of this episode was just a rapid release of Lain's past recollection as an attempt to fix her past mistakes. We told from this very start of how 'ambiguous' memory can be, could that also be referring to Lain's sense of identity.
Whilst the formalities that he attempts to hold with his mother is all fun and games, a moment will come where the affection that a child might want from their parent will hit in the most unpredictable moment ever.
You can literally feel the negative tension between Detective Kim and Inspector Cha.
Shelly and Pundao have so much chemistry I can’t. At this point, Pure is just playing with Loft’s feelings or loves the attention that she’s getting from her. Why is she still holding on to Air after being treated so badly, it’s becoming a little repetitive. Like I know Air is in sticky situation bu
Religion as a source of comfort when you have no one else but does that eat away at the self. As the audience we are just like Lain, we have been induced into a state where we are not aware of what's real and what fake in the plot of this show's narrative. Where does the hallucinations start and end
This episode has one of the most profound and eloquent pieces of dialogue.
"May we be like a pair of swan geese in flight, never parted for a hundred years." - They were talking about marriage and the fact that swans mate for life. My heart really can't handle this.
"From now on, every beat here
The level of chemistry that they have is crazy but I know that they are going to face more obstacles especially after finding out that Zi Ang is royalty.
"In this vast world of mountains and rivers, you are the only freedom I long for"
The entire dramatic confrontation between the two of them was riddled with affection. They wanted each other more than anything in the world. I was a bit berserk when Shu He initiated that second kiss.
That was definitely a drunk confession and no one can tell me otherwise. That crown prince is doing a little bit too much, the level of disgrace that you are willing to put your brother in order gain the king's favour is far too much. I know for certain that all of this act will not help him in any
It has been a while since I have watched a tv show so meticulously constructed and I was still able to enjoyed every single moment of it. It can't be helped but to enjoy it, every aspect of it seeks for you appreciate its narrative. This allows you to sink your teeth into the complexities of the cha
Truly an experience. Whilst it took a rewatch of the first 10 episodes to really get my engrossed in the narrative of the show, it was worth it. Despite being a slow burn, there is something quite different in the way that the story is structured allowing for the exploration of various philosophical
wtf is this??? im so enraged. these people literally went ahead and killed the two non rich non influential, working class people in the show like that! do the writers hate working class people that much?? who the hell edited the show??!! killed the impact of the most important scenes with that stup
i know i'll get my ass whipped for saying this but unless they develop tanwa's character out of the frivolous hippie with a trauma he's been for the past 6 episodes, I'll never like him together with Trin. He's way out of his intellectual league and feels like a side character, not a main lead.
my
So she’s a serial killer but only kills abusers and immediately tried to take this guy out once he uttered her daughter-in-law’s name? There are worse mothers you could have.
The review option hate to see me coming I just know it
First of all, why is it so short?? I need a full hour every single episode!
Anyway let’s talk about it..
Shu He getting tortured was the last thing I wanted to see and for that, fuck you Ziang for putting him there in the first place, I know
82/100
Lain try not to craft the scaries most anxiety and nightmare inducing scene in the history of anime at the beginning of an ep just to set up the tone challenge (absolutely fucking failed). Honestly have no idea if I liked this one more than the previous or not. Everything before Lain gets to
Every frame of this deserves to be a painting
Why are they so gentle with each other’s I’m gonna cry, the scene when Zi Ang was washing Shu He hand, the tension was taking my breath away! And the last scene, Zi Ang gentle touch.. haha what the hell I can’t handle these two
Also I really love how
"in this vast world of mountains and rivers, you are the only freedom i long for"
god- all the tension, that final scene, that KISS and the fact that it's china delivering this, what a time to be ALIVE.
I don’t know if I should rate this half a star or a five star it feels like there’s no in between so I’ll leave it without any rating
It was crazy, and that’s all I can say honestly
The scene when Sheng Shaoyou was crying literally broke my heart, him and Guo Tu suffered so much I feel so bad for
It seems as if Lain is a vessel for the deus ex machina which is intriguing. Interesting concepts explored throughout such as the internet being a higher plane of existence and that our bodies are irrelevant when compared to the power of our minds.
No idea what was happening with the stuff about
I am not good enough with words to explain how perfect this episode was!! It's slowly but surely creeping it's way to my top five and we're at episode 3. I'm loving how grounded the whole story is, tho I think I'll have to rewatch everything to catch the political plot points but I would not mind cu
“Remain in your existence along the path of the world, where love is nothing but emptiness for you”
Everyone in this show is having some gay crisis one way or another
Lert and Naran communication through books was like a dream come true, I need that scene in my veins honestly, and them later on? N
“It’s because the two of us are family”
“When I sleep at home all alone now, I feel really scared. I just want you to come back. I don't want a life of luxury. I only want you.”
Those lines really cut deep, the way that Wu suo wei did everything in his power to get Chi cheng out of jail, his love
