YYY (2020)

Molto carina

YYY è una serie semplice, senza troppe pretese, divertente e anche coinvolgente. Molte parti della trama sono volutamente senza senso, a volte anche deliranti, il che rende la storia a suo modo originale.

Alcuni dei personaggi sono davvero ben riusciti: basta pensare a Porpla, Wang Chao e Mahan, che in questo contesto sono i personaggi più azzeccati. Purtroppo però ci sono anche personaggi che non mi hanno affatto entusiasmato: come Yuri, soprattutto a causa di una certa cosa, verso la fine della serie. Non mi hanno entusiasmato nemmeno Chino e Grab, si sono visti poco, e da quel poco che li ho visti non mi sono sembrati niente di che.

Gli attori mi sono piaciuti molto, alcuni più di altri. Ho adorato Porpla, ma anche Pun, Wang Chao, Mahan e Yuri. Ovviamente era un tipo di recitazione "esagerata", ma che ho apprezzato molto in questo contesto.

La opening è una delle cose che più ho adorato. Molto orecchiabile, ma che allo stesso tempo rispecchiava il mood della serie.

Ho apprezzato anche i riferimenti alla serie Why R U. Anche se abbastanza numerosi, non ho mai pensato fossero delle cose buttate lì a caso, azzeccato soprattutto il momento in cui facevano partire le canzoni di Why R U.

Gli effetti sonori erano simpatici, anche se a volte li ho trovati eccessivi.

Questa non è assolutamente una storia perfetta, ci sono alcune parti che non mi hanno convinto, ma nel complesso è una serie divertente, da guardare tranquillamente per passare il tempo, la consiglio volentieri.

Hilarious and comedic, but well written and chaotic.

Story: When I first started this my plan was, because it was a sitcom, I wasn’t going to take it seriously, it was just for a laugh. However they created such an amazing plot with a couple that had great communication and were so sweet. If I had to describe this show in 2 words it would be “chaotic” yet “meaningful”. Every character brought something new and funny to the series, and I fell in love with each one, especially Om. The final episode was a good closure too in preparation for a season 2. I’m sad that there is only 6 episodes but I’m so happy with what we got, and wouldn’t change a thing about this series other than the flashing lights at the beginning because I felt like I was gonna have a seizure. Other than that it was the perfect balance between funny and serious.

Cast: Yoon (Nott)- He’s so handsome and, for a rookie actor, did such a good job as the role of Nott. He was funny but portrayed emotions well, and I really enjoyed every scene he was in and his great advice at the end of each episode.
—Talay (Pun)- I fell in love with Talay from My Engineer, and fell even more in this series. He’s also incredibly handsome, and is a natural when it comes to acting. He was by far the best character in the series and I really hope to see him in even more dramas.
—Poppy (Porpla)- I loved his character in WhyRU and I now have so much respect for him as he played the feminine Porpla, dressing in drag and being incredibly flamboyant. He was the funniest character and definitely brought the main humour to the show. I can’t think of anyone who could have done as well as he did.
—Peerawich and Scott (Om and Arm)- Om was seriously the best friend you wish you could have, even when you thought he was just silly and messing around, he was smart and intuitive while being hilarious and amazing. He was my favourite character and the supportive friend we all need! Arm I had mixed feelings over his character because while he did help the couple progress and knew when to back off, he seemed incredibly desperate due to his attraction to Nott. However they were both awesome and I liked them a lot in the end.

Music: The music was great, I really enjoyed the opening and OST, and the constant sound effects really helped the setting. I also loved the constant references through the music such as the WhyRU music which made it even better.

Rewatch value: That’s definitely a 10, I will be rewatching this very soon and probably a few times so I can have another laugh.

Overall: If you like more serious dramas I would probably avoid this, but if you like sitcoms and cheesy slapstick comedy with a healthy relationship then definitely check this out, you won’t regret it! I’ll also say if you liked the drama Diary of Tootsies then you will love this!
