Note de meekj909
This story has a classic trope for romance - opposites attract, enemies to lovers, oil and water do not mix except...for when they do! So, it's not "new" in that way.
However, what I thought Semantic Error handled in a novel way was exploring differences in personality and "processing of information" the between the two main characters creatively.
I've seen all eight episodes now and think this live adaptation did a great job to make an 8-episode run out of a plot that could have run much longer, but could have been messily bogged down by being too superficial about certain topics...really, the way that you can expect a cartoon to be about real life (a genre-typical problem).
The adjustments done to the plot, dialogue, and characters, while jarring to me at first, not only make the narrative arc one that can be told in eight 20ish minutes episodes but improve the story to be a more logical one, where characters are more sympathetic and endearing as well, but the essence of the story was not lost.
The production (cinematography! The visual accents! I could go on) is so great for this type of project, and the casting and the acting was on point.
Novel and manhwa readers can feel free to disagree (I have not read the novel and only part of the manhwa), but this live adaptation was very enjoyable and did a great job with the source materials that I am aware of by this point.

I saw clips from The Swoon about this show, and the more I looked at it, I was surprised to find this comedic yet action-oriented and conspiracy-filled take of a show around its Korean-Italian Mafia protagonist. I enjoy the cast of characters, the comedy, and the action, and so far, the show really has been quite a ride, in terms of having cliffhangers where the back-fill of explanation often can be quite crucial, but more than once, it's made me feel a sense of relief or despair. I don't think the posters or the trailer really can capture what duality this show has between the noir feeling at points vs. The truly absurd comedy, so it's confusing to tell what you're getting into, but by the time I hit episode 4 I started to realize that it was going to be a ride and by episode 10 I was just super invested in rooting for the characters. Now going to start episode 16, and I will come back to review to adjust it once I fully see the show.
