I’m glad i waited till second watch to write this review because i accidentally skipped a whole episode on first watch. This review is mostly about the gripes i have with the show more than anything. Overall it was cute and definitely an upgrade from en of love. Also YinWar are so fawking cute woah. But i had a couple of issues with this show:
1. Vee also cheated on Ploy. Maybe it was just the vibes i was getting, but it felt like the show didn’t want it to feel that way. Even before Vee discovered that Ploy cheated, he had had sex with Mark and kissed him twice. He also cheated and I wish we addressed that.
2. The sex scene in the first episode was non con tbh. Mark was WASTED; homeboy was gone. heck he thought he was having sex with Bar and not Vee. i understand that Vee had a couple of drinks as well, but he was definitely in the mind frame to have stopped what was happening.
3. Vee said some nasty things to Mark in ep. 6 or 7? the episode that had gone for the orientation thing, whichever it was. If I was Mark, I honestly would not have forgiven Vee. that was very disrespectful on vee’s part.
4. The way no one wanted to hear Vee out after that whole “kiss” with Ploy was crazy. like if Ploy hadn’t cleared things up herself with his friends, Vee would not have been heard at all. It also took way tooo long for Mark and Vee to clear things up. Like i understand it looked shady, but a simple conversation could have solved everything.
It is a good show don’t get me wrong, but these are big things that dropped the rating from what could have been a solid 9.5 or even 10 down to a 8.5.
