i commend the portrayal of gemini and fourth for their idaoki. i honestly think they did well *individually* but i don’t know if it was just a Me Problem because after ep 8(?), the chemistry fell through for me. i am not expecting any lovey dovey scenes since i’m familiar with kiekoi.

but somehow the kongthap/atom dating arc just couldn’t get spark that idaoki had. mememicchi had insane chemistry honestly compared to geminifourth, even at romantically hinted scenes— the two felt like bestfriends at most. i do not know what changed because it worked in the earlier episodes?

though i acknowledge that is a skill issue on my part because you can see how hard gmmtv worked on this adaptation and i loved the localization of some of the nuances in the series, they gave it more depth too.
