It's Okay to Be Sensitive 3 Review

For a drama with this name, it really said it's actually NOT okay to be sensitive.

A story about four friends trying to navigate through life and issues. Dating life, being an idol trainee, worrying about your siblings.

I have also reviewed the second season: It's Okay To Be Sensitive 2 (Every season is told with different characters, so you can watch it without seeing previous ones)

This review will have spoilers because I just wanted to rant about how I disliked it.

This season disappointed me so much that I don't even know where to begin... I'm pretty sure, the writer was changed because I have no other explanation.

The first episode talks about a scandal in which an idol had sex with someone. It is a good topic, but the way they dealt with it, was just embarrassing.

This episode has two points of view: that it's okay and it is not... And we never got to learn if it IS right or wrong...

This drama did not have to spell it out for the viewers but the other seasons are all about learning. For example what is considered sexual harassment, how women feel in those situations etc.

In the previous ones, they also talked about feminism and how it is okay to be a feminist. However, this season we're not really sure anymore???

Yes, they did say, they're all feminists at the end of the episode but it doesn't teach viewers anything.

The viewers just see 4 friends saying: "Feminism is bad because my date said so..." A second later it's good because that's what the second male said...

"Oh, we also sometimes feel shamed! Let's be feminists!" What is this writing????

This is such a current topic in S. Korea and all around the world, so why not take the time to teach something?

My only favourite thing was the whole drama with the idol trainee who got a sex tape leaked. It also was deepfake (I think), which is also an interesting topic.

Another great episode was when they said that a girl shouldn't feel pressured to have sex. That episode seemed like the old seasons.

The characters of the drama were.... Not that great? My favourite was the traine Do Eun and the men were okay.

But Ah Young was the most annoying person ever... They're 26 (around that age) but she's acting like a 5-year-old. Mostly it is aegyeo that she's always doing but she also seems to not have any thoughts.

After all of this, you would think that maybe, friendship would fix a tiny bit. But I'm not sure they were even friends???

Back to the first episode topic... They have a friend who was in a similar scandal (an even worse one). Why as a friend bring it all up??Especially than one of them is advocating that idols should not even love someone.

They also don't know each other's Instagram which I found weird... Again THEY'RE FRIENDS.

These are just two situations but there are more... At this point, they might be just strangers.

To sum it all up, this was a terrible season. Maybe, if you haven't watched others, it might be alright. However, knowing what this drama is supposed to be, makes me angry.

Just get a new drama with a new name.

2/10

Dottore and a sensitive s/o... agh.. knowing dottore (specifically omega) and how he can be sarcastic and mean at times. Tearing up when he says something slightly rude or in a certain manner to them. Or when he raises his voice just so slightly. This is out of character for dottore but just imagine him doing this unconsciously, or out of frustration when a dose of said cure has failed.

You had long become accustomed to hearing Dottore's remarks in the Akademiya. It had taken some getting used to, seeing how blunt he could be, but after some time you were able to see it as more entertaining rather than truly mean. You still felt the same even after you woke up after so long. In fact, perhaps you missed it after being away for a few centuries. However, after a while, it seemed that your once confident nature began to dwindle.

You're blessed with a lot of things, but you're also cursed with other things. It feels like you have a world of problems on you sometimes. You don't want to deal with things that hurt you even more, self-esteem already suffering. Now that he was older, he had no need for brash comments. Dottore could carefully weave his words to hit you where it hurts, having no need to be direct. Which, can arguably hurt more than just him being straight up.

You know that it's dumb for you to have such a reaction to it. But subtle remarks or rudeness don't help your already shaky state, even if you know deep down he doesn't genuinely mean it. All rationality seems to leave you as soon as you hear that tone. All the calmness you've been keeping up as a front. You don't want to be sensitive, to start a fuss over something this small, but you can't help it. You already know you're a burden, but you don't want to hear it.

Dottore notices the slight shift in your expression the first few times, but he doesn't dwell on it too much - you can handle it, he assumes, you have before, what has changed? And if you have a problem, surely you know you can just say it. He trusts you to speak your mind. It's not until he actually sees you cry that he realizes that perhaps his words have far more of an impact than he initially intended.

He doesn't want you to think you're an inconvenience to him, because you aren't, and never will be. And so he is at a loss as to what to do - apologize? He could, but he doesn't think it would mean much, considering the state you've probably been in for a while. Say he'll never do it again? A lie wouldn't do you any good either. He thinks he understands your brain but there are times he is proven utterly wrong. And so he resorts to what he seems to always end up doing - silently holding you until you're exhausted.

He knows he's not a gentle or tender lover. He's not the sweet one you've always desired (despite your firm statements that you would choose him over anyone else). But for you, he'll try his best to show you his love, because you deserve that, at the very least, right?

Camilla/Charles - ………… 

Richard/Camilla - desperate af 

Henry/Cam - only care about characters you can self-insert and project on, also thinks that idolizing lana del rey is a valid, unique personality trait

Bunny/Marion- probably a conservative, also not very sociable/is socially awkward 

Judy/Cam - that one friend thats too woke, lowkey delusional, can’t handle complex perspectives and everything is “rainbows and sunshine/ :3!!!!!!!”

Richard/Francis - has anyone you’ve ever loved EVER loved you back? (😔😔)

NO I WILL NOT zip my lips. it’s actually sossoosooso crazy that tommy calls buck evan. like. that’s not his name!!!! the people who know him call him BUCK. this is not even subtext it is TEXT. and I will never find it cute that tommy does it. I have never even found it cute when eddie does it in fics!!!! because it’s NOT his name!!! it is representative of a person to whom he no longer feels a strong connection, it is a name to which he no longer feels a strong connection. because everyone in his life that loves him calls him buck. and it’s actually kind of fucked up to me that he’s like having this journey of queer self-discovery or whatever. and it’s tied to this guy that insists on calling him by a different name than every other important person in his life. like is that not weird to. certain individuals. ? his first queer relationship being dissociated from the name that he has said people who know him call him? like it’s sequestered from the rest of him, rather than being a part of the whole person that he is??? I don’t like it!!!!!! at allllllll!!!!!!!!

To also go off of the point about cop!akihiko being annoying to me I gotta say that Akihiko as a character is very hit or miss with me because of how different adaptations of p3 will subtly alter his character. I felt like in portable with the femc route he comes off best, he’s a bit of a hothead with an obsession with fighting, but he’s overcompensating his strength so he doesn’t feel as weak and helpless as he’s been in many situations. He defines strength in a very literal sense, being physically strong and using that to protect others, but he’s lacking in emotional strength as a result. And in particular in this version I think he’s portrayed as a bit more goofy and sweet in a sense. He cares deeply for you as a friend and leader but he struggles with finding the words to describe how he feels. Hes kinda naive and gullible and has trouble noticing his surroundings. He has no clue what he’s doing but his heart is in the right place. I think he just comes off much more human and he has flaws, many many flaws, and that makes him all the more lovable

But then in other adaptations and spinoffs it’s like. They look at him through some hetero male bullshit filter and seem to view him as a lot more admirable and cool. Like in p3 dancing, theres literally an event where he’s talking with Junpei and Minato and they’re gushing about how perfect Akihiko is and how he doesn’t seem to have ANY flaws at all. And it becomes clear his inability to flirt with women just gets added as a way to make sure you, the Straight Male Player, don’t get insecure being next to such Perfection because at the end of the day, you’re still more charming and sexy than he will ever be because you’re better. It’s a “flaw” that’s only there to shield a sensitive male ego. And then in arena I mean, come on. He’s overly beefy and is a damn cop and travels the world and loves Protein™️ it’s his whole personality and he’s so clearly meant to be seen as hot but like, he’s just some shitty hetero male fantasy. Hes what the writers deem to be a Perfect Man that every guy wishes he could be, but don’t worry he’s still bad with women so you don’t gotta worry about him stealing your property- I mean, girlfriend!

And though I’ve not played reload and don’t really plan to anytime soon, judging from his social episodes they seem to have a similar problem. Akihiko comes off as a lot less approachable, like the year age gap is just too much of a barrier to get to know him properly. And he doesn’t have that dorky sweetness he has in portable, he’s just that perfect hetero male fantasy guy and don’t you fucking worry- he still has his protein powder with him

dear gods i adore horror tbh but i am way too sensitive to it

[umemiyan]

haruka sakura would be the type to look at fandom and be like "that's so lame" but then get really into some sort of media/story and suddenly start thinking about the characters and his own OC/self-insert who is so cool and powerful and totally not his fantasy self at all no way uh uh that would be so dumb

he's definitely not having daydreams or writing little notes about his powers and battles and how his favorite character is super in love with the self-insert OC or how everyone thinks he's just the strongest and coolest guy ever. he would never do that that would be so cringe and dumb. wait why are you opening his notebook give it BACK—

While I was reading the later chapters of Phantom of the Opera a friend of mind reminded me it was a serialization, and suddenly I had a moment of clarity in which I thought "Oh so that's why it's written like that"
