This series was hard to watch because there were times it was engaging and interesting, showing promise of a decent series. And then the next moment, there's something happens that is so incredibly random that make me think I missed something or that they were trying to make it suddenly exciting all too quickly without context or preamble. Many things were done without reason or, really, we don't get a reason right away or even in the near future.. more like an afterthought like "Oh, that's why this person acted this way" kind of thing. And these questionable actions are done by people we are later supposed to root for to be happy? I don't really buy it.

But I'm getting ahead of myself.

Let's first talk about the couple of Him and Nail. It started off interesting and looks like a random hookup from a night of clubbing after a broken heart. Then we get a glimpse of Him having an ulterior reason for chasing Nail other than initial interest and lust. Nail was a great character in my opinion... shy at times but super flirty and hella sexy when he turn on the sass. That in itself would have been a good enough storyline for these two as they worked things out. Him would find himself falling in love again and realize it had nothing to do with the fact Nail resembled Blue and Him was not trying to replace his dead lover with a replica model. Nail would move on from his broken heart and find a new love in an unexpected place.

And then they added all the rest of the characters and intertwining storylines and shtuff hit the fan.

The side couple was okay enough but again suffered from being in the middle of everything else going on around them and interlaced storylines. Pie was a former lover of Him's cousin, who he simultaneously had beef with though we really never know why.

Actually, it seemed like everyone had it out for Him, who was also grieving the loss of his lover. Te wanted to destroy his life just because Him and Blue had relationship issues? Their dry spell was the least of what Blue was going through but Te acted as if Him was the sole reason behind it. Seems to me like Blue had no actual friends or family he could talk to and didn't try to seek help. So Te's solution is to hurt both Nail and Him. And then we're supposed to believe he feels bad about it and moved on to this random Peach guy who shows up out of nowhere? (If you're dizzy reading this, trust me, watching it unfold will not be any easier.)

The best friends at the school probably made the most sense throughout the whole thing. And, I know a lot of people say the "mean girls group" was so unnecessary and ridiculous - which is kinda true - but I will say this... I really like that they weren't actually "mean girls." I like that the show depicted that the popular pretty girl clique could still be supportive and root for their friends. They were ready to fight the pretty boys because Nail was hurting and I can't help but give major props and respect for that. Sure, they were kinda OTT and unnecessary but they weren't the typical villain type a lot of these roles are. Even the one friend ended up with one of them which is usually unheard of unless it's something like Hana Yori Dango.

So would I recommend this series? I mean... I never say "don't watch this" but this one really was rough. Instead of suggesting to steer clear, I'll just say keep what I've said above in mind and be prepared for not everything to make sense. There's some decent NC scenes, if that helps. And Nail being a subtle sassy queen is amazing.
