bodice ripper set in current times
Overall: at times I like the faster pacing, but the chemistry isn't quite there. This is an adaptation of MAME's book which I haven't read (but believe she writes bodice ripper type books with the fictional mouth says no but body says yes). There was already a Thai adaptation. I will try to review the Japanese version based on its own merits. 10 episodes about 15 minutes each. Airing on GagaOOLala https://www.gagaoolala.com/en/videos/4928/love-in-the-air-2024-e01
Content Warnings: past rape, past intimate partner abuse, trauma, non/dub con kissing/touching, manipulation, harassment, manhandling
What I Liked
- fast pacing (though the first couple could have perhaps used more development/screen time)
- hair drying was cute
- the dream kiss
- NSFW scene in episode 4 was done well
- Kai was a supportive friend
Room For Improvement
- not really sold on the chemistry with either pair
- starting in the present and then going to an extended flashback
- the "plan"/nonsense approach
- qr code that said Code
- the spanking was cringey
- odd progression with the flashback in episode 5 and then the devotion in the present, felt very "because the writer said so"
- (neutral) the hyper/over acting type character
