why until we meet again failed to reach its potential

i started watching this series with a friend of mine after having read an extensive review on how it's actually incredible, from the cast, to the acting, but especially because of the topics that it tackles such as suicide, homophobia and domestic violence.
the beginning of the series is actually promising: two fated lovers crossing the boundaries of time to meet again in another lifetime, and the characters are, at first, seemingly differentiable and actually likeable. even the dynamics between the friendships are, initially, actually accurate and seem raw and genuine. as the story progresses, it feels like the characters are losing touch with their initial personalities, and not only this, but their growth is mostly inexistent.
what's really upsetting is that the subjects mentioned before, which were the basis of praise for this series, lose their meaning by the end of the series. even though it attempts to make a point out of reconsidering suicide as a method of escape, what happens at the end twists the entire storyline and shifts the blame from the abuser to the victim. the long monologue in episode 17 tries to be the voice of reasons, but actually blames the victims for choosing their way out of the prolonged trauma that they had to go through, and the pain they caused to their abusers, as a result of finally setting themselves free. this only further stigmatises abuse and reinforces the idea that victims are guilty for the way that they're treated, even if it (hopefully) wasn't meant to be taken that way.
in that light, what could've been a promising series about soulmates reuniting and fighting their hardships together as they attempt to combine both their past and present lives turns into something that, by the end, leaves an unfortunate, bitter taste.
