Warning: If you are in the middle of watching Peach Girl, don't read. There are spoilers~
So last night, I stayed up to 4AM watching Peach Girl. Right when I woke up today, I continued watching Peach Girl and so over the time span of less than a day, I managed to get up to episode 19 (and I'm still going).
As someone who has killed time watching over 200+ anime/dramas combined, I can't see the reasoning of some writers. In BOF, at first, I was all for JihooxJandi but after rewatching, I realize that Junpyo and Jandi are a better match. In some romcoms/dramas/anime, the main female protagonist ending with the "bad guy" actually works out quite well, and I'm perfectly fine with it.
Actually, I probably obsess over some dramas a lot more than I should cough rainie yang and wilber pan cough cough
GOING OFF ON A TANGENT FOR A QUICK SECOND:
I lufffffffffleeeee some couples. For example, OtanixRisa, UsuixMisaki, HikarixKei, Lee GakxBak Ha, just to name a few.
It makes me happeeeee.
BUT NOT IN PEACH GIRL.
Anyways, at the beginning I was like kyaaaaaaa this might be a cute anime, and so I kept watching. I thought Touji was awesome, and I also thought Kairi was awesome as well so I figured it would be a win win situation regardless of who Momo ended with. Touji broke up with Momo in order to protect her from having her image tainted, but still liked her the whole time he pretended to hate her. Kairi helped her feel better and Momo felt happy around Kairi. IMO the anime itself wasn't the best (very slow, don't like the female lead, etc but I'm really bored and don't feel like watching MIT compsci videos LOL), but I kept watching because I was bored and it seemed like there would be a decent ending.
ASKDLASDKLA; BUT THEN. When Kairi starts going out with Momo it turns out that Kairi doesn't even like Momo that much and is still thinking about Misao who, not to mention, is like 10 years older than Kairi while he goes out with Momo. And the only reason Momo ever started going out with Kairi and fell in love with him was because Touji was forced by Sae to break up with Momo so that Sae wouldn't leak the images of Momo. -_____-; AND THEN WHILE KAIRI IS DATING MOMO HE KISSES MISAO AND CONFESSES TO HER. WTH. I'm no dating expert, but I'm fairly sure that you're not supposed to confess to other girls while you are already dating someone else... I sympathize with Touji, who sincerely loves Momo and will never end with her. Bah.
Anyways that made me mad askflasdfasd; it's like Kairi is just using Momo since he knows that Misao will never think of him as anything more than a younger brother who is probably at least 9 years younger than her. Impatient to watch all the way to the end, I googled to see who Momo would end with, and as I expected-Kairi.
WHYY WRITERS WHHYYYYY.
If you had Momo go with Touji I would have frolicked in my chair (if that's even possible LOL) and praised this for having a smart ending despite having some choppy writing and character flaws. Or at least if you didn't turn Kairi from one of the best characters in this whole anime to the worst--seriously. I loved Kairi in the beginning for being so funny and supportive but now he's just a jerk.
It's almost like writers of all romance-related stuff are obsessed with bad guys like Ethan Ruan's character in Fated to Love You, but that's a whole different rant LOL. An anime/drama doesn't need the girl to end with a bad guy to make it good, believe it or not.
Anyways, I've heard that Momo goes back to Touji in around ep 19 and stays with him until the last episode so as I sulk in my little corner, I'll probably go watch those few eps where Touji and Momo are together so that I can convince myself that Kairi never ends with Momo.
ON A COMPLETELY RANDOM NOTE.
lawl these guys are the most pwnsome fails of all fails
Does anyone else feel like there are SO many animes/dramas where the girl ends with the bad guy without a proper development or reason behind it?
I FEEL LIKE THAT SO OFTEN OMG.
well, less often than not but still. hnnnnnng.
And no, I'm not an obsessive fangirl as most of you may think or I hope at least hehehehehe.
But I really do wonder what the people who write these stories are thinking... I wonder what went through their minds as they wrote this. I'm fairly sure if this was an irl situation, the girl would much rather go to the guy who actually cares for her but maybe that's just imo.
ANYWAYS can anyone give me recommendations of good anime to watch? I like a lot of stuff (but I hate ecchi and would prefer not to watch something with a LOT of blood and gore like High School of the Dead-I had to quit watching that after 2 minutes because I was so creeped out rofl). I've watched everything from Death Note to Pandora Hearts to Mermaid Melody to Kaichou wa Maid Sama to Gakuen Alice to OHSHC so I like a variety of different things. I need an anime to watch (or drama too, but you'd probably have trouble giving me a drama rec since I've watched so many lolol) and would really appreciate any suggestions!
왜 항상 나쁜 사람만 이기는걸가? 인생은 참 이상하다 ㅋㅋ ㅎㅎㅎㅎㅎㅎㅎ휴휴휴휴~
이제 난 공부해야징 ㅠㅠ;
EDIT: OHMYGAWSH I JUST REALIZED SOMETHING. has anyone else noticed the age gap between the people in Kdramas and Tdramas?
Most of the famous Kdramas I've watched have protagonists that are like, 22 to 29 years old (rarely older-an exceptions are Gong Yoo in Big), but most of the people in Tdramas are like, 29+ (Kingone Wang, Ethan Ruan, Dean Fujioka, Joe Chen, etc. The only two people who are kinda young that I can think of at the moment are Rainie Yang and Mike He (<3 in Why Why Love), but they are also 28 LOL)
I wonder why that is.
A difference in culture maybe? o3o
My parents always made it sound like in Korea, people would start losing popularity after they got older so I can understand why most recent famous actors are all in their 20's...
