This is absolute garbage, honestly. First, letโs talk about the casting itโs actually so bad, omg. The whole budget clearly just went to the casting, and itโs so obvious as well.
Not only that, but Iโm sorry Jisoo doesnโt even fit that role, same with the actor for YJH. And the director openly admitting to using Jisoo for clout? Thatโs just yikes.
Now, letโs talk about the main issue, which is the show itself . There are so many misconceptions, itโs clear that the director hasnโt even touched a single bit of the manhwa or the novel. But whatever letโs talk about the main issues on how many changes.
First of all, SWORDS BEING REPLACED WITH GUNS this doesnโt even make sense. Why are you replacing props that were originally meant to be there? It actually fits the concept more, since Omniscient Readerโs Viewpoint is set in an apocalyptic world. Using a sword is far more reasonable than using a gun.
Next is the roles the amount of roles being changed is insane. Why are you even changing roles?! Youโre just making this an entirely different show. The amount of changes is actually justโฆ wow. Saying Kim Dokja likes his father, when his father was the reason for his abuse and trauma and his motherโs suffering what?! And the part where he supposedly hates TWSA, when it was literally story made for him? What are you doing?!,then REMOVING HEEWONS SA STORY is SO FAR BEYOND Why are you suddenly making ORV a happy, lovey-dovey story? Itโs weird, to be honest to change a persons past.
Youโre changing the entire show like wtf?! Even the name itself has been changed.
Now, letโs talk about the director blaming his trash show on the OG fans. Thatโs actual bullshit. How are you going to blame the original fans when theyโre just pointing out your absolute piece of garbage and how much you changed the entire thing? And yes, Iโll keep talking about the changes because compared to the manhwa and the novel, this adaptation is unrecognizable. Even the manhwa didnโt have that many changes. I get that some small changes are necessary obviously, not everything can be shown exactly but the entire thing?!
As if it couldnโt get worse, the worst of all is the director saying, โSwords are unrealistic.โ
ARE YOU ACTUALLY OKAY? IS YOUR BRAIN WORKING?!
In a world thatโs literally apocalyptic and fictional, not everything has to be modern or realistic giving itโs fictional it shouldnโt matter much,Anywyas itโs actually more reasonable and realistic to use a sword in an apocalypse than a gun.
At this point, the director shouldโve just left it at The prophecy instead. This show deserves a much lower rating I donโt care. I genuinely hope the director never makes anything again.
And this, right here, is the reason why manhwas shouldnโt be adapted if you canโt do it right.
If you canโt handle it properly, then donโt start with it to begin with!
