So I'm gonna let the biased me go to sleep for a bit whilst I write this or I'll just be talking about VegasPete and BibleBuild's acting. This series is one where you have to leave your morals at the door before watching it. Basically all characters with the odd exception are awful people and have done things we don't agree with. For the sake of watching it and enjoying it you have to sorta put yourself in the mindset of x did this to y but that doesn't mean he's a bad person, even if in real life you wouldn't agree with that. It's not a light series, its really dark, especially the first few episodes and the last few.
So to start I'll talk about the couples.
KinnPorsche: Being the main couple they had the main focus, their story is beautiful and there isn't too much to say on their development. They should have communicated more that for sure but I feel as though boc portrayed their relationship really well. It was a love neither of them expected but once they had it they embraced it. I did enjoy them up until maybe ep 8-9 it just felt like there was so many scenes that weren't needed by this point. Once they had acknowledged their love for each other they both turned into completely different people which is to be expected but they majorly lacked communication. Especially when spoiler alert....Kinn's ex Tawan came back from the dead. Overall I did love them and MileApo did an incredible job at portraying them. Apo as Porsche has to be one of the best things I've seen, his portrayal of Porsche's emotions especially earlier on was something I never expected.
VegasPete: So aside from the fact they barely got any screentime in the grand scheme of things, they took my heart. There was and still is so much controversy around VegasPete and their relationship. It is one that is very complex. You have to look past how they started and look at how their love developed and more importantly why. There was alot of people saying it's stockholm syndrome, but it really isn't. Pete didn't fall for any of the parts that hurt him, he fell for Vegas, the real sensitive Vegas, the one Vegas only showed to Pete. Pete would never and will never condone anything that Vegas did to him and he will never say he agrees with that. He just couldnt deny his feelings for the real Vegas which is why that happened. Vegas is a hugely complex character and Bible being a rookie exceeded all expectations. Build portrayed Pete in a way that is distinct to him only, I genuinely could never imagine anyone else as Pete. BibleBuild by far outsold any other acting I have ever seen (I say this completely unbiasely). I am still sorta gutted they didn't start till the very end and I was worried they weren't going to develop well but I'm glad I was wrong.
KimChay: These were such a comfort couple. A sweet love.....to begin with. They started because of Kim being curious about Porsche so he used Chay as a way to get info. It then formed into something else. You could see the love he had for him but Kim being quite a mysterious person he didn't want to bring Chay into that world. He broke Chay's heart and thats basically it, that was the end of them in this series. We didn't get a reunion but we did get a badass fighting sequence from Kim protecting Chay and that was definitely a highlight of the series for me. I hope their story continues if we get a season 2, they deserve a happy ending.
TimeTayTem: I'm not even sure why I'm mentioning this throuple when we got little to no scenes of them alone let alone as a relationship. We had flirting in ep 3 between TimeTem and Tem being heartbroken further down the line but with no indication it was because of Time, we had nothing to go from with it. This has to be the biggest sike I've seen in a series. I was so hyped for them and we they were basically non-existent. Although I have to mention Tay looked ethereal everytime he was on the screen.....definitely wasted an opportunity for screen time with him. I'm still bitter about it.
Its definitely not a perfect series thats for sure but overall this is a really good series and it was definitely worth the wait. The production was second to none and the acting is by far the best I've ever seen. It's now my favorite series and I'm looking forward to see where it goes if there's a season 2.
(I hope I wasn't too bias but I'm going from my enjoyment of it)
