Takara no Vidro: Takara’s Treasure Series Review
Sneha Jaiswal (Twitter | Instagram)
“Creepy”
University student Shiga Takara doesn’t shy away from calling freshman Nakano Taishin a weirdo for choosing to leave his hometown to study in the same place as Takara, even though they met only once. The two had crossed paths on a hiking trail when Taishin was grieving his beloved pet’s death, and Takara, who was passing by, stopped to comfort him. Even though Takara gives Taishin the cold treatment at university, they slowly start growing close after Taishin joins the same trekking club as Takara.
Nakano Taishin (played by Konishi Eito) is so slow, he could compete with a sloth over who takes longer to finish their sentences. Now, some people might find it adorable: a cute-looking college boy who is naive, innocent, and talks like he is still learning to speak, but others might find it annoying. Four-year-old Kotaro from the anime series “Kotaro Lives Alone” is four times smarter than freshman Taishin.
Based on the manga series Takara’s Treasure (タカラのびいどろ – Takara no Vidro) by Minta Suzumaru, the live-action show has been directed by Tomita Miki and Ishibashi Yuho. Ishibashi has previously worked on “Shigatsu no Tokyo wa…” and “Our Dining Table,” so she is not new to the genre. Iwase Yoji plays the titular protagonist Takara, a handsome, aloof trekking enthusiast who always has a beeline of girls after him.
Iwase Yoji as Takara looks like he is out of a manga series; he is the ‘tsundere’ archetype, who often acts aloof and indifferent towards Taishin, but then also gets protective and caring. Apart from his passion for mountain treks, Takara is fascinated by glass marbles and loves collecting them. For him, they are beautiful pieces of treasure that might seem useless to others but are very precious to him. The English title “Takara’s Treasure” is a play on Takara’s name, as the Japanese word for ‘treasure’ is ‘takaramono’ (宝物).
Konishi Eito, on the other hand, as the simple, innocent Taishin, felt slightly miscast; he gave off more of a dancer/rapper vibe than that of a clueless, short, cute character he is supposed to be. Taishin is a weird mix of creepy-cute; obviously, it’s wack as hell if a random stranger decides to follow you to another city and study at the same university simply because you had a comforting conversation with them. How the sweet, ‘pure’ Taishin and popular but haughty Takara fall in love and take it forward is the crux of “Takara’s Treasure.” The other supporting characters that make their way in the series are forgettable and there aren’t many comedic moments.
Ten episodes long, “Takara’s Treasure” is slow, silly, and not engaging enough, but given that the leads are good-looking, a lot of viewers might find it to be adequately entertaining.
Random trivia: Takara’s Treasure, the manga series won the 2023 Digital Comic Award in the BL category along with My Personal Weatherman (Taikan Yoho).

Worst Ex Ever Review: True Crime Meets Toxic Love
Sneha Jaiswal (Twitter | Instagram)
There’s a hilariously viral video of a woman giving a speech at her sister’s birthday, where she asks the bride and groom to look into each other’s eyes. As they do so, emotionally bracing for something sweet, the woman says, “Just know that the person you’re looking at right now… is statistically more likely to murder you.” Everyone bursts into loud laughter, including the bride and groom, who were in a fragile state, ready to cry if something more heartfelt had been said. As funny as the joke was, it’s also sadly very true. Netflix’s 2024 documentary series “Worst Ex Ever” dives into true-crime stories of horrible partners who went from being caring lovers to frightening strangers.
Season One of “Worst Ex Ever” (I’m pretty sure they’ll eventually come out with a second season) has four episodes, each about an hour long, focusing on different individuals who endured both psychological and physical abuse at the hands of their significant others. The format is similar to Netflix’s docuseries “Worst Roommate Ever,” except that things are far more personal and traumatic when the perpetrator is a romantic partner.

The first episode, titled “Dating the Devil,” follows the case of Benjamin Obadiah Foster, a serial abuser who physically assaulted and tortured several of his ex-girlfriends. Three of his ex-girlfriends are featured in the Netflix documentary, all of whom suffered abuse at Benjamin’s hands. Real recorded 911 calls, bodycam footage from cops, photos, and animated reenactments reveal the chilling story of how Benjamin was a monstrous man to be in a relationship with.
The Benjamin Obadiah Foster story is a frustrating case study of how the police and justice system don’t take victims of domestic violence seriously. Benjamin assaulted three different women over a period of a few years, had even been arrested and jailed for beating up an ex, yet he managed to get out and target two more victims. His last girlfriend barely survived, thanks to a concerned friend who immediately called the police when she sensed something was amiss.
While the animated reenactments aren’t the best, they are adequately engaging to reconstruct crucial events and incidents, pushing these real crime stories forward. While three out of the four stories feature male abusers, the third episode, titled “Killing for Custody,” focuses on a woman who made her husband’s life hell and committed a brutal crime, for which she displayed zero remorse.
“Worst Ex Ever” is made for true crime fans looking for swift retellings of real-life cases and a basic lesson on recognizing the obvious signs of problems in a partner. Unfortunately for Seemona, a restaurant owner, things got worse even though she decided to get out of a relationship as soon as she discovered her boyfriend had been lying to her. Despite being an intelligent, independent, entrepreneurial-spirited individual, Seemona fell for a crook named Jerry, who pretended to be a cop. It was all about timing—Jerry came into Seemona’s life when she was at an emotional low point; she had just lost her dad and had just started running a food joint.
Netflix should’ve interviewed a few behavioral experts or psychologists to explain these aspects of manipulative relationships and how coercive control works. But, well, it’s pretty clear “Worst Ex Ever” wasn’t made to educate anyone, so if you’re looking to see some stories about horrible, violent partners, stream this documentary series on Netflix.

Sunset x Vibes Review: Sultry x Yawn-y
Sneha Jaiswal (Twitter | Instagram)
Pretty boy Salin gets an internship at a big jewelry company with a group of his close friends. While the interns struggle to deal with their bossy seniors, the biggest shock for Salin comes when he realizes the CEO of the company is the same hot guy he hooked up with through an app. The two continue to court each other in secret, while the other interns form new romantic connections too. Essentially, the Thai series “Sunset x Vibes” is a lot like other workplace romance shows like “A Boss and A Babe” and “Step by Step,” except that “Sunset x Vibes” is infinitely boring.
Directed by Mi Puwadon Naosopa, “Sunset x Vibes” is based on a novel of the same name and stars Bank Mondop Heamtan and Mos Panuwat Sopradit as leads Salin and Sun, respectively. The two were paired together for the first time in the deceptively titled college romance “Big Dragon,” where they played enemies who become lovers. “Sunset x Vibes” sees them playing older characters who are far more childish and only do adult things in the bedroom.
Bank Mondop Heamtan is a beautiful young man, but his acting range is monotonously limited, and it doesn’t help that his character, Salin, is a privileged, one-dimensional baby doll who lives in his own dreamy bubble. Mos Panuwat Sopradit, on the other hand, is better at his craft and feels wasted in “Sunset x Vibes.” There are some fantasy elements in the story that make no sense and always feel like an afterthought. The side couples are unable to make any impression whatsoever, and even though chemistry between the leads is quite spicy, the bland plot automatically makes one lose interest in Salin and Sun’s romantic progression.
“Sunset x Vibes” wholly relies on the visual and sexual appeal of its lead actors and makes no effort to deliver an engaging story. And while yes, like many viewers, I do enjoy the lead couple getting funky in the sheets, that’s not enough to keep us entertained. It’s impressive that the creators managed to stretch this show for 12 episodes because I had a hard time paying attention after the first two episodes. A total snoozefest!
You can watch “Sunset x Vibes” on iQIYI.

Oh… Canada: Short Film Review
Follow us on Twitter | Instagram
Oh, Canada. Such a wonderful place to live – WHETHER YOU LIKE IT OR NOT. A musical look into the artifice surrounding the Canadian identity.
Seamlessly shifting between English and French narration, the short film “Oh… Canada” offers a satirical take on how the travel industry glorifies the country, while its ground realities are far from the rosy images depicted in flashy ads. Here’s the catch: written and directed by Vincenzo Nappi, the film is styled as if it’s from the 1980s/90s, beginning with a duck that might remind some viewers of the 1984 light shooter video game “Duck Hunt” by Nintendo.
The cinematography presents a whimsical mix of animated animals—ducks, beavers, bison— reminiscent of old Cartoon Network shows, contrasted with eerie, overly cheerful humans singing Canada’s praises. In the second half, the patriotic anthem “O Canada” plays, once again blending English and French lyrics as the screen erupts into chaos, ranging from passive aggression to outright violence. The beaver, for instance, appears to symbolize immigrants; the narrator quips, “Canadians like to see the beaver as more of a neighbor than a pest.” Yet, ironically, the beaver is subjected to treatment far harsher than what even a pest would endure.
At just about six minutes long, “Oh… Canada” feels like a dystopian retro horror ad, seemingly made for a very niche audience. Who that audience is, I’m not entirely sure, but perhaps politically vocal Canadians disillusioned with the state of affairs in their country might appreciate Vincenzo Nappi’s work the most.

A Gift for a Ghost: Graphic Novel Review
Sneha Jaiswal (Twitter | Instagram)
The art style used by Borja González in this surreal graphic novel is not for everyone! But I loved it. The characters don’t have facial features; they are like mannequins when it comes to their faces, and this artistic decision adds to the magical realism theme of the tale. ‘A Gift for a Ghost’ is about how Laura is intent on starting a punk-rock band with her two friends in 2016, even though they have little talent for music. Another timeline, set in 1856, follows Teresa, a young woman from a wealthy family who loves horror fiction and poetry, much to the annoyance of those around her.
There’s an interesting, unexplainable intersection between Teresa’s life and the girls from 2016. However, what’s common in both timelines of ‘A Gift for a Ghost’ is the fact that while Teresa struggles to find acceptance from those around her due to her quirky passion for gothic horror, Laura in 2016 also faces similar alienation from her friends for her eccentric choices. The most interesting and saddening thread between Laura and Teresa is the fact that while Teresa is far too modern for the 1850s, Laura often dresses in medieval costumes, longing for a simpler life that wasn’t complicated by the internet and other modern distractions.
The thing is, I had to read ‘A Gift for a Ghost’ twice to truly understand what seemed like a completely abstract, pointless story at first. However, if you start re-reading just the first few pages of the graphic novel immediately after you finish it the first time around, you’ll be able to see how Laura and Teresa’s lives collide in a dreamy, unreal encounter. While Teresa loves to escape her mundane reality by cooking up nightmarish tales to scare her younger sister, Laura runs away from reality via elaborate costumes that allow her to imagine herself as someone else. Despite living over a century apart, both young women experience a similar sense of isolation, loneliness, and rejection from the society. And thus, both their stories end with them running away from home, hoping to begin anew. Although we don’t get to see how that works out for them.
Of-course, I only had the patience to read ‘A Gift for a Ghost’ a second-time around because the artwork appealed to me, but readers who fail to resonate with Borja González’s art style will not enjoy this as much, let alone give it a second read. But if you do like the art, try reading it a second time around.
Rating: 4 on 5.

The Deliverance Review – Fab Cast in So-So ‘Exorcist’ Style Film
Sneha Jaiswal (Twitter | Instagram)
“I had to cast out the demon. I had to do what we call the deliverance.”
“Like in The Exorcist movie”
“No, I don’t do no exorcisms”
The creators of the 2024 horror-thriller The Deliverance slip in a clever nod to the OG of demonic possession movies through the above exchange between two pivotal characters and try to set themselves apart from the hordes of other exorcism films. But the thing is, The Deliverance is very much an exorcist-style horror flick, except that it takes a lot of time to build up to the supernatural disturbances and focuses on a single Black American mom struggling to run her house with three kids, a cancer-stricken mother, and an alcohol problem.
Directed by Lee Daniels, The Deliverance stars Andra Day as Ebony, the single mom with three kids — Shante (Demi Singleton), Nate (Caleb McLaughlin), and her youngest son Andre (Anthony B. Jenkins). Glenn Close plays Ebony’s mother, Alberta, who has moved in with the family to their new place where an evil presence infects the children’s minds.
With an almost two-hour runtime, The Deliverance unfolds like a solid psychological movie about Ebony’s fraught relationships with her mom and kids, exacerbated by their financial troubles. In fact, if Lee Daniels and co-writers David Coggeshall and Elijah Bynum had chosen to keep this story free from supernatural horrors, it would’ve been a much grittier film about a broken family trying to overcome their personal demons, rather than literal demons unleashed by Satan who needs a whipping from Lord Jesus himself. Thus comes the second half, where you see the usual possessed kids crawling up ceilings, contorting their bodies, cracking their bones in inhuman ways, and spewing venomous nonsense. “The Pope’s Exorcist” also featured similar tropes, but had a stronger back-story for both its demon and its exorcist.
Andra Day is effortlessly convincing as Ebony, a fierce working mom who finds herself in a power struggle at home with her own mother over how to raise her kids. A large theme of the film is the subtle (or not so subtle) racism Ebony faces at institutions like schools and hospitals over her capabilities as a single Black American mother. When her children act out at school, indulging in bizarre, disturbing behavior, Ebony is essentially blamed for creating a stressful environment for her children at home. Anthony B. Jenkins, who plays Ebony’s youngest child, Andre, is the most affected by the evil entity in their new home, and the child actor is fantastic in his creepy scenes.
The cast of The Deliverance is undoubtedly good in their roles; however, for a horror film, it doesn’t break any new ground and instead delivers a very standard, clichéd climax, with mild scares throughout its runtime. It’s the non-supernatural bits that tend to be a lot more unsettling and uncomfortable in this Lee Daniels movie.
Rating: 6 on 10. You can watch “The Deliverance” on Netflix.

Buddy Review – Furry Fiascos, Flat Jokes, and a Lot of Flying
Sneha Jaiswal (Twitter | Instagram)
A young woman is kidnapped by organ racketeers and finds her soul entering the body of her gigantic teddy bear. She teams up with a pilot to save human self, and in an incredible twist of fate, the pilot is also the same guy she has a massive crush on.
Who would’ve thought that someone would make a wacky action-comedy-thriller about a teddy bear fighting an international ring of goons with a pilot? But there are crazier movies in the world and the 2023 Telugu comedy “Buddy” isn’t even wholly original, it’s a remake of the 2021 Tamil action-thriller “Teddy”. Besides, Seth MacFarlane gave viewers a buddy-comedy headlined by a talking teddy bear in the 2012 movie “Ted”, which got a sequel in 2015 and whole new series in 2024.
Directed by Sam Anton, who’s co-written the script with Sai Hemanth, “Buddy” stars Gayatri Bhardwaj as the woman trapped in a teddy bear’s body, while Allu Sirish plays hero pilot Aditya Raj. Unfortunately, the creators fail to maximize Buddy’s comedic potential thanks to a hairbrained plot muddled with needless romance, drama, heroism and stale jokes. I don’t even understand why it’s called “Buddy”, because it’s about a woman in a teddy bear’s body trying to fight crime with the guy she loves, there’s no buddy-ship going on.
Ajmal Ameer plays antagonist Arjun Kumar Varma, a genius doctor who leads the organ racket in Hong Kong and gets an over-exaggerated entry scene – while performing a critical surgery, the doctor decides to take a coffee break to the horror of his fellow doctors but shrugs it off saying the patient has plenty of time and a coffee won’t kill her. And in the most random casting choice, Bollywood actor Mukesh Rishi plays Aditya’s fun uncle, and it’s far too evident that someone else had dubbed for him. Why not simply get a Telugu actor to play his role?
Anyway, “Buddy” is a weird, boring action-comedy, with far too many songs and lazy sequences in its prolonged 2 hour 17 minute runtime. The climax is completely ridiculous, with a mid-air fight that can compete with the 2021 Bollywood movie “Flight” for being brainless. But just like “Flight”, the special effects are actually pretty decent in “Buddy”, however, that doesn’t redeem it in any way. Watch it only if you’re a big fan of Allu Sirish, who surprisingly doesn’t have as much screen time as the teddy bear.
“Buddy” is on Netflix.

That ’90s Show Part 3 Review
Sneha Jaiswal (Twitter | Instagram)
When the cat’s away the mice will play!
Kitty Forman (Debra Jo Rupp) convinces grumpy homebody husband Red (Kurtwood Smith) to fly with her to Paris, so granddaughter Leia (Callie Haverda) and friends host a party at their place, which ends in the complete destruction of their kitchen! That’s how the last season of “That 90s Show” ended, so part three opens with Leia panicking over fixing the broken wall, but she is unable to clear up the mess before her grandparents return from their European vacation.

As much as I enjoyed part two of “That 90s Show,” these new episodes were just not as entertaining or funny; instead, they were dragged out and dry. Most of the plots aren’t even interesting. Nate (Maxwell Acee Donovan) takes the blame for the kitchen mishap in a bid to impress and win back ex-girlfriend Nikki (Sam Morelos). Red, of course, makes sure to punish Nate for the damage. Meanwhile, Leia agonizes over taking her relationship with Jay Kelso (Mace Coronel) to the next level. The sassy-sarcastic Ozzie (Reyn Doi) is the only one in the group who is nowhere near losing his virginity, but a possible romance is in the air for him when he meets a cute guy at a wrestling convention. Leia’s BFF Gwen (Ashley Aufderheide) doesn’t get to do much in this edition, although the second half focuses on her relationship with her dad, who turns up uninvited to spend some time with her.
Part three of “That 90s Show” is the kind of show you’d want to watch when you don’t want to pay too much attention to the television but need a mild distraction while having your lunch, tea, or dinner break. So I watched it over a few days while eating and having side conversations with family, because there aren’t many jokes that you’d feel bad about missing. The humor is still very Disney/Nickelodeon level, and yet the show isn’t kid-friendly because the teens are constantly talking about sex.
If there’s one thing that did stand out in part three of “That 90s Show,” it’s a fun animated bit where Leia imagines what her ideal first sexual encounter would be like, and the animation made her look like the cartoon version of Lizzie McGuire, a teen Disney show that starred Hilary Duff. In fact, Callie Haverda looks more like Lizzie McGuire than Hilary Duff when it comes to the cartoon counterpart. And like always, there’s plenty of 90s pop culture references laden throughout the eight episodes, complete with some unexpected dance breaks – Leia and friends dance to the 1990 hit “Gonna Make You Sweat” in one particularly hilarious dream sequence. But again, the roaring ‘laugh out loud’ moments are spread thin.
One of the major reasons I started watching this show was for the iconic Debra Jo Rupp as the fun grandma Kitty; however, this time around, the writers gave Kitty the weakest gags. Almost all the sections featuring older actors bordered on being boring. Anyway, “That 90s Show” does have a few laughs here and there, and while it’s not binge-worthy at all, like I said, it’s a decent watch for during snack breaks—you could watch a bit every day without caring about what happens next.
Stream the series on Netflix.

Nobody Wants This Trailer: When A Podcaster Falls For a Rabbi
Follow us on Twitter | Instagram
An agnostic podcast host and a rabbi, both newly single individuals, meet at a party and sparks fly between the two unlikely companions, Joanne (Kristen Bell) and Noah (Adam Brody). But as they navigate their budding attraction, they’re also navigating a minefield: their clashing worldviews, a slew of modern dating dilemmas, and their sometimes helpful, sometimes disastrous families.
The trailer for “Nobody Wants This” is a whirlwind of chaotic energy, filled with Gen Z slang and quirky antics, even though the lead characters are a bit older. The story kicks off with an unexpected romance brewing between Joanne, the spirited podcaster, and Noah, the non-traditional rabbi. Their initial meeting is anything but smooth, setting the stage for a classic ‘enemies to lovers’ vibe. “She doesn’t have a single Jewish bone in her body, unless you put one inside her,” Noah’s friend hilariously quips in the trailer, summing up the skepticism surrounding their mismatched pairing. The relationship raises eyebrows, especially from Noah’s devout mother, who isn’t shy about her vocalizing her disapproval.
While the trailer might seem like controlled chaos, “Nobody Wants This” appears to be a fresh take on a modern romance, exploring how two people with drastically different beliefs can find common ground. The real hurdles in their relationship come not from their personal differences but from the meddling people in their lives. Kristen Bell and Adam Brody bring a charming, playful chemistry to the screen, making this romantic comedy one to watch.
Catch “Nobody Wants This” when it hits Netflix on September 26. Watch the trailer on YouTube, it’s also embedded below.
Meet You at the Blossom Series Review
Sneha Jaiswal (Twitter | Instagram)
Where to stream: iQIYI; WeTV; Viki
Jin Xiao Bao is the only son and heir to the wealthiest man in the Jiangnan region, known for being a bit of a troublemaker and womanizer. It’s love at first sight for him when he runs into an angelic white-clad beauty in the forest while being attacked by armed men. Jin Xiao rescues the woman and starts pursuing her for marriage, but what he doesn’t know is that she is a very powerful man called Zong Zheng Huai En in disguise for a political mission, which includes targeting Jin Xiao Bao’s family for some crucial documents.
Spanning 12 episodes, the historical drama “Meet You at the Blossom” is based on the novel “Hua Kai You Shi, Tui Mi Wu Sheng” (花开有时, 颓靡无声) by Shui Qian Cheng and stars Wang Yun Kai as the playful Jin Xiao Bao, while actor Li Le plays Zong Zheng Huai En, a member of the royal family who is controlled by a domineering father with a complicated past. The innocent Xiao Bao unwittingly becomes a pawn in an elaborate power struggle, and his growing relationship with the mysterious, secretive Huai En complicates matters further when Huai En begins to reciprocate his love.
Wang Yun Kai is cheery and bratty as Xiao Bao; his onscreen capricious personality makes him seem like he would be perfect for the role of Jin Ling from “Grandmaster of Demonic Cultivation,” which was made into the super-hit Chinese series “The Untamed.” Li Le’s character, Zong Zheng Huai En, is quite a divisive presence, marked by a moody demeanor and erratic expressions of affection toward Xiao Bao that can turn dangerously aggressive. At one point, his decisions almost lead to the brutal execution of Xiao Bao’s family. However, the intense push-and-pull of their relationship taps into the ‘opposites attract’ theme, which could resonate with viewers, especially given the less tender nature of love in historical settings.
The first few episodes of “Meet You at the Blossom” are entertaining and comedic in nature, with many of the laughs stemming from Xiao Bao mistaking Huai En for a beautiful woman. However, Li Le rarely looks feminine in the series, but that’s what makes Xiao Bao’s misunderstanding even more hilarious. Another amusing aspect of the series is how most characters acknowledge the blossoming romance between Xiao Bao and Huai En, although Xiao Bao’s family hopes it’s simply a passing passion. As the series progresses, “Meet You at the Blossom” introduces several other supporting characters, who are underexplored and don’t get enough screentime to grow on the viewers. The tone awkwardly shifts from comedic to being tragically dramatic, and this change of tone isn’t smooth.
Since a power tussle is a primary conflict of “Meet You at the Blossom,” so I was expecting a lot more grittier action scenes and was left disappointed on that front. That said, visually, it’s a gorgeous-looking series, with beautiful costumes and colorful sets, including grand mansions and richly decorated interiors.
The climactic episodes of “Meet You at the Blossom” are rushed, chaotic, and feel quite underwhelming. But given that Chinese historical dramas are always censored when it comes to gay romances, the series fills a large void for viewers who’ve been hoping to see a show that doesn’t water down the love story between its male leads.
Rating: 6 on 10. You can stream the series on iQIYI; WeTV; Viki.
