lemme establish my narrative with how I first came across this donghuahttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chineseanimation as a teenager with a lot of interaction with social media it was quite fortunate for me to come across this show on my feed particularly shorts I believe initially ignored this on instagram when the show was airing then the short had my attention and I was free so I decided to watch the show having a cliche introduction to the show was not unexpected this adaptation unlike the comic version which I will not be discussing off in this entire review has a mixed twist to it I dont find it necessary to elaborate about the comic cause that is a totally different story to tell so focusing on the donghua. ost not that I can remember of my binge but I believe that the romance was intriguing enough to have my attention animation good enough for a romcom character design interesting and finally story Id request for a person who has already watched the show to read this so I can relate to the readers feeling at most and make them have their best read on this show so maybe watch the show and come back the characters were cute shiyas past was kinda needed to be elaborated on but an elaboration is basically oshi no ko all over again what sets this self assumed misunderstanding for the less spotlight given to her idol career apart was the focus on li shiya opening up to people china is not immune to bad work stations afterall we humans tend to loose our minds quite often as we can assume the manner in which li shiya finds a reason within our protagonist is what made me appreciate the show the three sided love triangle thing was quite annoying and not appealing in this show for me I have watched other romcoms and it wasnt executed well that could be considered as a major drawback to plot like I get it the love triangles are a basic necessity in a romcom but this one had its focus set more on li shiya finding a reason to live with our protagonist The story blossoms over this point through out its short yet sweet runtime further more a couple of instances of the donghua that I did find appealing was the possessiveness li shiya showed the protagonist would assume that li shiya is toying with his feelings and is not genuinely being shy around him but as the plot progresses this genuine passionate love comes out and makes the misunderstandings fade I myself rewatched this right after my initial watch the show is short and fun the romance doesnt feel pushed an elaboration on other genres except romance such as that person who gave her the lighter and cigarattes I have not read the comic and will not be but I believe the other instances of the plot would have been contradictive to the happy ending of the story the ending does feel sweet and bland at the same time but that exactly is what fiction is supposed to be at times
