Love Is Blind - Japan part 2 review: Of drama, heartbreaks and second chances

3/5

Story:

25 days before their wedding, the couples who were a part of Love Is Blind: Japan's experiment (getting engaged to a stranger by interacting with them through pods where they cannot see each other) go through various turmoils in life. They start living together, see each other in the real life and get to know their partner better by interacting with their friends and family members. Will things remain the same?

Review:

"Relationships are gross." Not just that, love is blind and the latest episodes of Love Is Blind: Japan prove the theory right.

Things get pretty real and intense this time around, as the parents get involved in the couples' lives. The couples also meet each other and the drama comes alive. There is a heartbreaking moment too.

The camera angles work wonders in the reality show. It capture the emotions in the right way at the right moment which makes this show a little more attractive.

This is the time when men take the limelight. They talk about their experiences and how long it has been since they moved in and lived with someone else.

Doubts set in and arguments happen when the couples get so close to a wedding. Almost every couple, even the happy ones, have second thoughts as they start living together under the same roof, judging the other person's lifestyle before they met them.

There is a romantic gesture this time around which will melt your heart. It is not something every man thinks of or does and the one who does, you probably wouldn't expect it from him.

Misunderstandings are quite common among the couple but there is a moment where it feels like the love one of the couples had, had been cheated on. Half-Indian Priya, who became a star since Love Is Blind: Japan's release, has major spotlight on her even this time, especially given the situations she's in.

Here, people change their personality in order to impress people. It is tough to understand to what extent love can be blind, especially in this part of Love Is Blind: Japan. Nonetheless, the upcoming episodes promise to be worth the drama. Time will tell if it is really.

Verdict:

While the latest episodes of Love Is Blind: Japan start off on a great note, the series makes you question everything as it comes to the end. People who pledged to stay true to themselves change their personalities making you wonder to what extent is love blind? However, this is just the mid-way for the series. The upcoming episodes, which promise to mark a finale of the show, appear more promising.
