Episode 3:
This somehow feels... Meditative? And somehow... Real? It does not feel like a "forced" kind of love that you usually see in romcoms, or love that blooms intentionally, but rather... I don't know how to put it even. Awkward love? I've seen some complaints about this show, and not like they are baseless, but the way some portions are kind brushed away and the way others are not shown give me this feeling of "scared to love". Or maybe "scared to be loved", too.
I totally get that it may feel too heavy, because there does not seem to be many light moments, but on the other hand, I would argue that when you are in a mental state similar to these characters', these "heavier" moments would probably have way more impact on you and your relationship. Also, if you look closely every episode is getting just a little bit lighter, so maybe this is even intentional.
