I don't really know how to explain what happened to me when I was watching this. I started off a bit unsure, but something shifted for me in episode 3, especially after Jack and Zhao Zhi officially met, and I was just hooked. I went back and watched my favourite scenes all over again the day after I finished it. The plot doesn’t take always take the obvious route, and even where it does I didn't even mind. The characters were fun, layered, and played off each other so well. And honestly I need a season 2 and I need so so so much more Jack and Zhao Zhi. 100% more. Their talk on the staircase, the second face, the were you using me fight, it all came right at the end but it was SO GOOD and did so much for their dynamic which I was already obsessed with. I loved them SO MUCH. I want to know so much more about Jack, and about Zhao Zi and his life without a family.

Was this show actually perfect, no. But it ticked all my favourite boxes and the side characters were so good and I just had the most fun watching it.
