Beastars (2019)
an okay show with a horrible message
First of all, the show is fine. not great, not awful, but because of the short episodes it's a quick watch. but i can't be the only one who thought that this show has some very weird themes behind it and it seems like it was written by some people with a very specific fetish. and i'm not even just talking about the furry aspect of it, for example the show feels the need to mention how small the bunny is multiple times while reeeeeaaaally overdoing her and at the same time saying how wrong the others would find their relationship together. i know they say that she's 18 but basically all she's described as is small, innocent, weak and because of the size difference she just looks like a literal child. it all just felt very icky.
Modern Love (2019)
5 really strong episodes, 2 genuinely bad ones and 1 mediocre one
This show was a real rollercoaster for me. Some episodes were genuinely moving pieces about love, hope and the unexpected turns and twists that life throws at you, while others were poorly represented, on the nose, perhaps even tasteless episodes about mental health and daddy issues. But because of the short format of the episodes, you quickly forget about the horrible and can focus on the next episode which will probably move you to tears and stay with you for a long time.
