Thought-provoking family satire with leads who carry the show
Loved this show. It aimed to be a "modern day fairytale" while also moving things along in a satirical way that took subtle jabs sprinkled with comedy at societal problems, lowering the entire melodrama quotient. At their cores. the characters were real humans, but the writers chose to add a layer of unreal quirks to them, IMO, in an effort to lighten the show and make it thought-provoking instead of preachy and judgmental. They all reach points of vulnerability and seriousness in their arcs -- and then rocket back to unbelievable(except for the main leads). I thought the dialogue and plot progression was very cleverly done.
I LOVED the main leads. FL Sato wasn't the typical doormat, nor was she the typical rude idiot using "badass" as an excuse. She was strong from within, and knew when to compromise and when not to. I love her dialogues - she's respectful and kind but also stands up and directly addresses people's mistakes and prejudices, elders or not.
I ADORED ML Miyama Kenta. Confrontation isn't his strong suite, so I love how unconditionally he supports Sato whenever she stands up to confront something wrong in the family. I also like that Sato totally knew what his family was like and chose to take them up as a challenge, instead of being the usual surprised lamb-led-to-the-slaughter FL. Their chemistry was soooooooo cute, a big reason why I managed to get through the gritty, frustrating parts of the show.
I didn't really like the very last plot arc, but in this show, it made sense. I guess the writers couldn't come up with anything else because the relationship between the leads was so strong, trusting, and unconditionally supportive.
