tell me not to do something and you've just raised the chance of me doing it by 50%, jsyk. Reeeeeally now? I may or may not be planning to take advantage of this information in the future. ;DD
And uhhh, you DO realize that I'll never be able to listen to shiosai the same way again right? And that it's probably for the best because That's Briliant, lol? Ok, good, just as long as we've got that cleared up.
Dooood, I love walls! First off, they make me feel less bad about my own and second off, it's so nice to talk with ppl on here with that many words even if it's about jdramas because they usually derail into other things anyway
/pssh if you're weird then i'm a weirdo-loving fool
Omg this paragraaaaaaph. I feel like I'm in grade 11 english class again and I love it. Hmmm, idkw but when I was in high school I used to love that sort of thing and especially the notion of the atypical hero dying, particularly if it was tragic or too early and just yeah, you get the gist. Which probably explains my Shakespeare obsession, lol. BUT NOW. I don't enjoy it as much? Or more like, the idea depresses me first and it takes me longer to accept - comes with old age? Pffft, idek, but in Naoki's case: idk if I want him to be legendary because of his past? Wait, that doesn't make sense.. I guess, I mean to say, a lot of me wanted him to have more and then if he had died I could've at least been like, 'weeeell, at least he got a little more of what he deserved', but then I start thinking about what you mentioned earlier about Yuri and her role as the healer and then it's just like: COULD NAOKI HAVE MADE A BETTER LIFE FOR HIMSELF ANYWAY?
/re-reads the above
Ewwww. PleasepleasePLEASE ignore the above, it makes no sense and if I tried handing this in in grade 9 I would've failed. So. Yeah. I'm a lot less cohesive when I'm trying to get shit across online. |D;;;
tl;dr: Maybe Naoki dying was the right choice at the end of the whole thing.
Good point about RL death being sudden, usually there ain't no hints like we get in jdramas unless it's a sickness or smth. I guess I'm too used to jdramas dropping me a bone or smth before these sorts of things. P:
Ahaha, yes, persistent! That's a mucho better word than what I had in mind originally. xDD But ikr? I mean, even in the non-incest ones kissing is like pulling a tooth, so to think I was hoping for a little smth here. Psssh. Sora Kara definitely ruined me those two were just so flaw-free, how could you NOT ship that?
Honest to god, Yuri's attempt at being helpful boiled my blood like nothing else. It was one of those parts where all you can do is yell things like giiiirl, you gon' die! and really? really? furiously at the screen. On the one hand it just felt sooo very preventable, but on the other I guess that was sort of the point? Made it more effective and devastating for the people involved and I'll admit, I liked how it echoed the murder in the past as its modern-day reincarnation. OH GOD THAT PHONECALL. It definitely reaffirmed that Yuri was gonna die but I think in a lot of ways it redeemed Naoki for me too - the ice was melting from his heart, maybe things were going to be okay, other cliche things, etcetc.
SRSLY. SOME OF KIM'S BEST ACTING IN THE DRAMA WAS UP IN THAT SCENE. JUST SO HEARTWRENCHING. ;AAAAAA;
(You should TOTALLY rewatch Karei-naru /biased me is biased Oh Beautiful Life. I'm terrified of going back and watching his old dramas like BL and LV and LG for some strange reason - but at the same time! I really want to immerse myself in Kim's roots and Completely Understand all the references that come out of those things. Have you watched those three? If so, which one would you say is a must, like, you-don't-deserve-to-live-if-you-haven't-watched-this-yet kind of must? Loool, I keep saying I'll watch Kimi wa Petto because the manga Tramps Like Us was my favouritest thing in middle school but idk, the fact matsujun's in it kind of weirds me out, even though I love me some uhrashee /blahblahblah)
maybe we should just both pretend this entire thing never happened.
