Very very late to party - I just finished catching up with episode 10... I'm back with rants~
I have a lot of mixed feelings about ep. 10.
Unpopular opinion but... The only thing I loved/enjoyed about Date this episode was him fixing the necklace(?? what do u call it) + his puppy eyes welling with tears from his (what-he-thought-is) unrequited love.
THEN the whole thing about Karakade haunting Kade... I knew this is why this development just didn't sit right with people, but seeing it for myself had myself confirm why... yup. Theoretically, Karakade coming back because she has "unfinished business" is totally awesome, if only they had laid the foundation for Karakade's development or revealed more of her softer side - and not just her continuing to be a spoiled, selfish person she has always been. Kadesurang got into this situation which she never asked for, all because of Karakade (karma, past lives and what-not, but Kade doesn't even know any of that yet?). I pity Kade.
Call Kadesurang's response to it noble idiocy - it's true to some extent. But I also thought about how it must feel awful to be assuming another person's identity and having to live as her...you'll probably feel like nothing truly belongs to you - or at least this is how I rationalised Kadesurang's actions (apart from just good ol' noble idiocy aka bad writing) - but understandably, it isn't very clear.
...And then we have new episodes in the next 2-3 days~ Hang in, everyone.
