Castaway Diva 1x01 "Episode 1"

★★★★★★★★★★

Episode 01 was great. It showed the things that happen in real life that most people choose to ignore. The things that happen that people turn a blind eye and a deaf ear to, like those bystanders who just watched someone else's boy be bitten to death by an adult.

While this episode depicts physical child abuse, so there is evidence and all that. Don't be mistaken dear readers, there are a hundred ways of child abuse, especially from parents. Right from their HOMES where supposedly there should be love.

It saddens me deeply that the majority of comments and reactions I've read about the premiere episode failed to see this problem and instead focused on the actors and shipping and the entertainment value.

Episode 01 is loaded. But people missed it; or decided to ignore it because they can't accept it happens for real.

Depression is real. Kids who grew up with destroyed dreams because the people who should have supported them in the first place are the very ones who destroyed them.

How can you appreciate the rest of the story if you fail to understand and absorb the essence and message of Episode 01? Look at it deeper instead of focusing on the shallow things.
