I really enjoyed this mini-series and am surprised by the low reviews. I think it's important to remember that although the actors and pairing is the same, this isn't TinCan, and therefore the characters are written differently with different personalities. I think Mean and Plan did a wonderful job portraying Two and Wish, and the mini series left me warm and fuzzy once it ended.
For being only two 30-ish minute episodes, the writers went into this with a solid concept, and the execution resulted in a complete, fully realized story. I’m genuinely perplexed by people saying this had no plot, as more was accomplished in these two installments than what's been done in some BL series with 12 episodes or more. I do think this series could have benefited from perhaps one more episode, so that some parts could have been really fleshed out, but I commend the creators for giving so much when given so little. I was also really impressed with the cinematography; the lighting, the sets...absolutely gorgeous. My only complaint is that at times, the music was a bit loud, and the actor's were hard to hear. It wasn't a huge setback for me, as I was watching with subtitles, but it was a technical issue that I think could have been avoided (perhaps by using better/closer mics).
I noted this in my review of ReminderS, but I'll say again that it was really fun watching Mean and Plan play different characters than the ones they played in Love By Chance. They delivered a solid performance here, and the looks Mean would give Plan....ugh, my heart. Nothing much to say other than love!
Overall, I thought this mini series was cute but had some substance. There's a solid story line (given that it's only two episodes) and a ton of sweet moments. You may want to watch ReminderS first, since that's where Two and Wish are originally introduced, but to be honest, it's been so long since I watched that and I kind of forgot 2wish was in it, and I was able to watch this mini series without feeling confused or like I was missing something. So, viewer's choice! If you're only here for MeanPlan, then I think it's perfectly fine to watch this one without watching ReminderS first. All of that said, I'd of course recommend!
