When this show is good, it's really good! Eun Dan Oh and Haru's romance is cute and sappy as heck, Dried Squid Fairy and Lee Doh Hwa are great supporting characters, and even Baek Kyung made me feel a lot of feelings. It's also notable that this show manages to balance comedy, romance, and psychological horror at the same time. Everyone's comic book characters and only a few are self aware about what's going on! Haha.... but also, the existential dread is There. I love it.
The Trumpet Creeper flashbacks were also pretty good, and they were the best part of some episodes. Extraordinary You lowkey trying to be a historical drama on top of all the rest lols. Have to say the most interesting parts of Trumpet Creeper were Dried Squid Emperor's everything and whatever fucked up relationship was going on between Baek Kyung and Haru (is it just me, or is Baek Kyung's attitude towards past Haru like his attitude towards present Eun Dan Oh? It was weird and good and bad).
However, I still rated this only 7/10 because there are a solid number of episodes in this show that do basically nothing for me, repeating plot points with no progression over and over again. How many episodes are basically Haru saying "We'll change the plot", Baek Kyung saying "Don't change the plot", and Eun Dan Oh waffling while Lee Doh Hwa and Dried Squid Fairy et al play around in the background and no scenes are actually changed, or plot relevant? Too Many, making the second half of the show drag. Still, the last couple episodes have the pacing speed up again, and overall the show is pretty good.
