A Reality Dating Show Done Right

When it comes to reality dating shows, I usually find that they are too overly dramatic and so it makes it hard for me to watch them. But with this show I did not have that issue at all.

It goes without saying that to some there is some appeal to the overly dramatic reality dating show but the overall calm nature of this show in particular was really refreshing to see and experience as the weeks went on. I would say that the format of the show made it to where you really cared a lot about the participants and their individual experiences. And yes some did get less screen time but I do believe that they made up for it, especially in the later episodes.

I also find that usually through editing they try to make someone the "villain" of the season and I think that the show did a really good job in trying to maintain the true character of everyone in the show. And because of this it made me feel for them a lot more during their experiences, whether it was through the ups or the downs.

While I know that everyone may not like or empathize with Shun and his actions, I do still really appreciate the commentators in trying to go about and explain reasonings as to why Shun may be acting the way that he did and why he went about everything with Dai in such a manner. It didn't overly vilify or dehumanize him but rather made it to where you could possibly see where he was coming from. If we hadn't gotten to know Shun as much as we did, I think that editing could have made his actions seem much more dramatic and made him seem like worse of a person and so I have to appreciate the fact that it wasn't done for the sake of views.

Overall I think that this show was absolutely amazing and while it definitely could have been improved with some more run time, I think that the version we got is still enough to leave me feeling satisfied with the way the show left off. And I would love another season and also for Netflix to possibly make some other shows like this because this was definitely a breath of fresh air in the reality dating show space.
