Small & Mighty (2022)

i loved it

I watched this drama around a month ago, and I wasn't planning on putting a review, but it has been sitting in the back of my head for so long I just had to come and finally write up how I feel about it. Firstly, Small & Mighty caught my eye because I really enjoy law + comedy genre, so I believed this drama would be something I would like. I was definitely not mistaken, because i absolutely LOVED this drama, maybe even more than I originally thought.

Being my first Taiwanese drama, the cinematography was certainly something that needed getting used-to, but it definitely grew on me and I have no complaints about it, I loved it like I loved everything else about this drama. The cast was great, I loved the main leads' chemistry, and little Liang Liang is so adorable!!! This drama has all the great genres for someone looking for a very lighthearted but warm drama with many great lessons; everything from slice of life, to law, to comedy, to found-family, to workplace to friendship. As I stated in a comment before, the law cases in this drama remind me of the ones in extraordinary attorney woo; cases with just the right amount of realism and wholesomeness. The comedy and character-dynamics of this drama remind me of May it Please the Court; the leads have really great chemistry while still maintaining the bickering couple energy. For those wondering, romance is very minimal in this drama, but the leads are very much soulmates, and I like to imagine they will be romantically-canon at one point in the future (call me delusional but I can definitely feel Liu Liang growing a soft-spot for Xiao Yan). I recommend this drama if you're in the mood for something funny, silly, but still filled with great lessons.

Also I just want to take a moment to talk about this dramas OSTs, because why are both the intro and outro song so GOOD?! Listened to them every single time because they were just that good. I also like to think Always by J.Sheon is how Liu Liang feels for Xiao Yan, even though the lyrics fit Liu Liang and Liang Liang's relationship better LMFAO

However, fair warning, you may become extremely attached to this bunch once the drama is over. It's been a month, and I am currently still suffering from Small & Mighty withdrawal symptoms LOL. I really do hope they make a season 2 <3 I love them all so much

Would’ve been a 10 except for the ending

I loved this show so much, and the interactions between the female lead and male lead were leading us to believe they would end up together. That didn’t happen so I was very disappointed. I love the premise of the hotshot ML and an underdog, kinda awkward FL getting together. I would be so happy to see a season 2 for this drama which would wrap up their relationship with a happy ever after. I also was disappointed that the little boy didn’t live with Lui Liang while his dad was doing time in prison. The had such a fun dynamic that I was wishing for more time with them together.

All of that said about the ending, I highly recommend this drama. (Sorry about the spoiler but if not for the ending, this would’ve easily been 10 stars for me.
