I’ve been thinking about why I have mixed feelings on OFMD season 2, and I think I’ve partially figured it out?
In this season, they’ve introduced some really strong new characters like Zheng and Archie, and I love both of them. But it kinda feels like the writers don’t know how to keep new characters around with some kind of romance? I do really like Jim and Archie’s relationship, and I think they’re very adorable, but I also don’t think they needed to be a couple, at least, not yet? Jim and Oluwande were one of the best relationships in season 1. Their relationship was full of pining and missing each other and now they’re just… different. They’ve had one conversation this season that wasn’t about Zheng, and there has been no conclusion to the relationship they established in season 1 (which was explicitly mentioned by Zheng when she asks about the status of their boatmance, and there’s never a clear answer given). Archie and Jim being in a relationship is weird to me with how quickly this happened. It sorta feels like denkins heard people wanted lesbians and just sacrificed a major established relationship for a brand new nblw couple. Archie doesn’t really strike me as the relationship type from what we know about her, so her coupling just feels like a way for them to keep her around rather than a genuine move the characters would make. (She gives me the biggest aro vibes). And Zheng and Olu is just. Strange. Olu is canonically oblivious to all of her advances until right before they leave her ship, but they treat it as though he’s been pining for her this whole season. Which. Is not the case. Again, it feels like the show is pushing him towards Zheng to clear a path for Jim/Archie, and so they have a reason to keep Zheng around. The women in this show are all very strongly written, but they’re all being shoved into romances with the central crew of the ship, which is just unnecessary. They even gave Spanish Jackie a crew member husband (which again, IS A RELATIONSHIP I ENJOY). It feels as though the writers don’t feel like they can come up with a better reason for a woman to stick around besides coupling her up.
Also, I do think this season having fewer episodes is detrimental because we can’t focus as much on the non-captain part of the crew. Season one did a great job of fleshing out the crew and their backstories, but season 2 has had such a heavy focus on stede and Ed that everybody else has fallen to the wayside.
I am enjoying the season, but I do miss the ensemble-y vibe from season 1

Wtf is going on with Jim and Olu… Jim friendzoned him right?! Y’ALL FUCKED WHAT? THREE MONTHS AGO?! WTF MAN
If they’re trying to do a polyam thing I don’t think this is the right way to do it but I’d be happier with it than Jim leaving Olu for Archie and Olu leaving Jim for Zheng
I am ILL

nobody's gonna see this but fuck it
the reason I love ofmd is because it shows what it means to be queer and trans and neurodivergent. like that's it. everyone is a little into each other, any kind of relationship goes and there's no questioning from everyone else. their identities don't get in the way of their character arcs. jim gets to be trans and poly and there doesn't need to be 3 episodes to explain it. stede and ed? bro that's literally autism4autism. there's no male gaze or female gaze. that soft ass ponytail ed was rocking is straight up queer gaze. the love story gets to progress beyond what any queer story written for/by straight people could do and way beyond the typical hetero romance. I love the humanity of it all. I love the way people can do bad things but they can still be loved. they can be in the wrong and need to change their actions and mindsets but still be loveable. that's what makes me love it. unconditional acceptance

so i had heard the rumors about jim and oluwande falling apart but i gotta say i am thrilled with how their relationship was handled. they don't fall apart at all; they just grow a bit. it's just a shift. there's nothing in their interaction that ends their connection and nothing that really forecloses a continued romantic connection either.
jim's clear that they are telling olu about archie because olu's their best friend, not because archie has overtaken olu or become more important. olu's surprised but also immediately glad that jim's told him and they can joke about it a bit. oluwande turns around and still takes jim as family to zheng yi sao. they are family! they are best friends! whether there is more in addition remains to be seen, but those base facts do not change and will not.
there's no tension, there's no betrayal, there's no disappointment, it's just - they're happy to be back together, and jim communicates openly as soon as they're able, and there's no drama really. just joy at being together and being able to share together. i'm super excited for how these relationships will continue to develop.

Olu being completely oblivious to how much raw sex appeal he has is so funny to me always.
Furthermore I think it is fitting and DESERVED that he's wanted carnally by only the BADDEST OF BITCHES in the entire show.
As he fucking should be.
