Alright, it is officially my opinion that ::points index fingers in the air and waves them in circles:: -- if Ameiro Paradox/Candy Color Paradox is not GREAT, then at least it is VERY GOOD in my book, because I see it trying to be a good show!
Episode five was really satisfying for me! Yes, the acting is still somewhat questionable, but again -- I think I really appreciate Kimura Keito and Yamanaka Jyutaro trying as best they can. I think these guys just need more acting experience.
Why do I say that -- I say that because, as compared to the increasingly incomparable Izuka Kenta (IZUKA KENTA, MORE ON YOU IN A SEC), these two are CLEARLY less experienced. Izuka, man -- he’s been in a lot of doramas, he’s a stage guy (he’s acted in something on stage with Kimura Tatsunari of Old Fashion Cupcake before, I just have to spend time tracking down what that actually was), he’s experienced. When you compare Kimura’s Onoe to Izuka’s Inami, you just see that Kimura is young and fresh and not a veteran, like Izuka. (I clearly need to watch Zettai BL -- I’ll put it on my essential watching list.) These young guys may get better with age, at least I hope so!
Anyway, I so freaking like that Izuka as Inami is being set up as a kind of player/enemy-like character. I love the implications of that, and I love that Kabu got confused in the end, and I love how Onoe ran to him and was kind of melodramatic and super awkward about hugging Kabu, and I love the weird and incomplete communication these two have. They’re CUTE TOGETHER, what can I say? I’m like, such a soccer mom for cheering these guys on from the sidelines -- go be your awkward selves, honeys! Despite the melodrama, I have to cheer for them.
Super excited for next week’s episode, I want to see Izuka get all evil and shady, and I want to see Kabu uplifted and excited. I am SO DOWN with Izuka becoming an BL legend -- he found his lane, I love it! (And reminder: looks like there will be new news about The Novelist/The Pornographer next week, so mmmmmmaaaybe Izuka’s appearance on Paradox is meant to hype up The Novelist again?)
So, yeah, Paradox obviously does not come close to the quality of The New Employee, but I’m happy for it being a part of this winter season -- I am officially a strong defender of this soapy mess!
