Who would’ve thought that my favourite recent premiere would be Yumi’s Cells 🙃?

    I already liked the webtoon, it’s relatable and funny, but I wasn’t sure I would like the real-world plus animation plan. Turns out, not shabby at all. The cells don’t interfere (or interact really) with the real world, which is a huge plus in my book. Their world is intertwined with the real world but it’s also independent of it in a way that makes the transition from one side to the other easy on the mind. Basically, it doesn’t interrupt my suspension of disbelief. I can easily get immersed in the show without thinking “Wow, that’s weird”.

    The story is also SO relatable, but I already expected that. I am Yumi and Yumi is me. Except I don’t have multiple cute *and* sweet guys potentially vying for my attention, but do any of us? haha (No seriously, do you guys have some lying around?)

        This is what’s putting me off watching it, multiple seasons. Even if it’s planned in advance, knowing there are intended to be multiple seasons killed my enthusiasm for it.

            I don’t think it was me, sorry – I don’t know the webtoon at all.

          i read it was to have 3 seasons..
          but for now i see confirmation for only 2 seasons..but you never know ..

          I think i made peace with the reason for watching this show .. cells shenanigans.. so nto really looking for a big arc..but just enjoy at episodic level

            I’m so used to having the big arc, I can’t remember how to watch episodic things 😅 the cells are fun though so we will see if I manage to stay away.

          I’m okay if she goes through lots of relationships. Some people fall in love easily, and that’s ok!

            its fun.. her nemesis is going to become her best friend i think..

            I am forgetting the name of that wonderful beanie who introduced me to this webtoon.. she/he would have all the details.. 🙁

    It took me until the end of Episode 2 to get into it, but this week’s episodes were so good. Really sweet and funny and relatable.

    I was surprised too. It was meant to be a mindless watch for me but I ended up loving it. The cells are adorable!
