PSA: This is all subjective and my personal opinion.


I've tried to like the second episode, I really did but infantilizing an adult woman to the point that she can't even function properly because of her phobia... No. Go to therapy. How the hell did she even get hired in the first place? You can't tell me hasn't done any prior designs with circles. And she has zero coping skills?! To catch herself and her anxiety and push her through adding it to a design?! Unrealistic as hell, especially with such a specific but every day occurring phobia like hers.

And no, it's not 'cute' that she can't look him in the eyes. She's supposed to be over 18 and can't even explain her phobia to him? Or try and tell him she has mental issues and feels physically uncomfortable when she sees circles? Like come on.
And yes I know she did say "the moon triggers me" but... What does that... Mean? Because by Dew bringing an umbrella it looked like he thought the whiteness of the moon triggered her. Which is very far from the actual phobia she has.



And this useless c-plot with her being a werecat... Why? What was the point of that?
It added nothing to the general story, and any tension of him 'finding out' went away after ten minutes because he literally found out on the night where it was risky for her to be out anyway. It would have been way more tension filled if the other dude was the only one seeing her and Dew just saw him running away, wondering why. And then she immediately grabbed the umbrella and was back in human form to help him stand up.
It's disappointing because the idea could be used to create a lot of "he almost finds out then doesn't" scenes.

It also showed her just feeling cursed by the transformation. But what if she... Was very sensitive to smells so she can smell his nervousness when he's with her, or what if she had enhanced hearing and heard her boss and the failed client talk which helped her create the general new logo and then Dew just added the final details with his silly dance.


It would have been interesting if one of Dews hobbies was the study of some uccult beasts. And we was a child these creative and fantastic myths and creatures inspired him to go out create logos for businesses and that's how he got into his job. And then hearing her being triggered by the moon immediately caught his interest. LIKE ANYTHING THAT FITS THE STORY JUST A LITTLE BIT.
But this has zero connection to anything that's going on. Just weird and useless. And it's so sad.


I do like their chemistry, they're very cute. I wish she would have been a bit more... Feisty since she IS a cat after all, but somehow has none of the typical characteristics a typical cat would have. It would have helped us to connect how her cat self and normal self are simply two part of her personality just stronger.



Also also, the way the costumer talked down to Tu and the boss just let him? It's probably because I'm from a different work culture but... That shocked me. I can not imagine anyone allowing him to speak to her like that here. You can of course get your point across clear but in such a whiny, condescending way? No, you're a business owner not a preteen with hormon deficiency.


That was my short review of the second episode, thank you for reading.
