Boy bands are the just sad

I'm seriously fed up with the whole teacher-student thing; it's just creepy. Yeah, I get that she hasn't been his teacher for five years, but I still can't get behind that dynamic. And these guys, seriously, they acted like they were thirteen-year-olds, including Dan. Age differences aren't a big deal for me if the people involved are on the same wavelength, but in this case, it just didn't click.

Now, let's talk about these so-called idols. It's like they're slaves to the band, the image, and the management company. They can't make a move without permission, can't have their own dreams, and forget about dating like normal people. And all this just to please some crazy fangirls? Plus, let's be real, the music isn't exactly groundbreaking most of the time.

Who in their right mind thinks they can control who an entertainer dates? And why the heck do they care if they're in a consenting, adult relationship? These boyband members seem to be living in a weird kind of prison, allowed on stage but trapped in a gilded cage by these managers who want to control every aspect of their lives. It's pretty depressing, and I can't get behind it.

The acting was so-so. Those emotional scenes felt more like exaggerated theatrics than genuine moments. And seriously, the whole gang turning on Asuka even though the band owed a lot to her? It didn't make sense. Acting like her holding hands with someone was some kind of betrayal? They could've just denied the romance thing since they weren't even really involved. Drawing stars on each other's hands doesn't exactly scream "relationship" to me.

Naru? Ugh, he took the cake for being the most annoying character. Always jealous of something, and his excuses just didn't add up. First, he hides Asuka's goodbye message to keep Dan around, but then he's all in favor of kicking Dan out and resists when he tries to come back. It's like, make up your mind already!
