I was not able to watch this on the day it aired. When I got home
around noon Wednesday, I was only able to watch the first 10 minutes.
That 3 Latino males robbed a bank and took 3 hostage with them. The bank
they robbed is about 2.5 miles from where I lived. The chase ended
about 20 houses to the west from where I live. There were almost 80 cop
cars chasing after the robbers. The cops and robbers were shooting at
each other and it was intense when the one of the cop shot their tired.
It's like a 2 minute walk if you jump fences. You would have to walk
around the neighborhood to the actual scene which takes about 5 minutes.
I literally jumped out of my bed, my phone cracked (I was watching
Rising Sun on my phone) and grabbed my two nephew, toss them in the
closet, closed the door and windows/blinds and stayed put for a good 30
minutes. I was on my broken screen phone looking for updates and I had
my eyes glued to the window in case the robbers decided to jump fences.
When I was younger a man being chased from the police jumped over my
grandma's backyard to escape so I had been paranoid since then. Two of
the suspect and one hostage died. July is just filled with tragedy. The
very next day, Malaysia airplane was shot down.
So I decided to start on this today and happy that I did. Here goes my
first impression of the first episode. I love Mario and Taew chemistry.
Takeshi is so sweet and adorable. I love the scene with the geshia/maiko
(the performers I was not sure if they are geshia or maiko because
their makeup and outfit are nothing close to it but I am assuming they
are) were performing, he spotted Seiko behind the curtain. He must have
super vision lol Aiko even mistaken the person he was smiling at was the
performer when actually it is Seiko. Regarding the fight scenes, I give
them credit for doing a better job than Cubic. But it did make me
giggle here and there at the corniness of it.
One of my pet peeve is the pronunciation of the Japanese names. And the
white powder on Pat. She is not light skinned but the white powder is
just way too much.
Is it me or lately nang rai is just too overbearing these days. They are just there to make you hate
them. I really don't like how Aiko is written. The use of her character is just not my thang. I don't like it when nang rai is overly jealous and she turns psychotic. Nang rai going on a killing spree is too overly used. I hope that it doesn't go according to the summary and Seiko and her somehow ends up being good friends and they both end up helping Takeshi.
But I loved the bromance in here! Finally enjoying a bromance in a lakorn.
Between I don't like the opening song. I wish they stuck to Thai or use an authentic Japanese song.
Off to episode 2.
