Now that I'm watching My Royal Nemesis for color-coded reasons, I can easily see that this arrogant Black Brooder is in love . . . despite what his face might be saying.

Yes, *this* man is a man in love.

And he is in love with this crazy passionate Red Rascal who smears ox blood on herself to prepare for battle and ward off evil spirits.

So when red shows up around him, if it was anyone else, I would think it's because he is extremely upset and experiencing rage, but because he can't stop thinking of that crazy Red Rascal who turned him down, I know it's because he is in love.

The red just seems to follow him almost like he can't escape it.

But then again, he doesn't really want to.

Because even though Cha Se Gye can't remember his previous life, he was blinded my Shin Seo-Ri's dazzling light even in the past.

So for a man who only knows darkness and comes across as a storm cloud most of the time, it must be refreshing to meet a woman who would rather live on the rooftop in the open air.

Cha Se Gye exists in dark spaces handing out punishments to those who have wronged him.

He hides behind a mask to scare others away.

Which is exactly what he had to do in his previous life.

But now he has met a woman who pushes him to step into the light, so she can clearly see his true nature.

Which is why I had a tiny theory that these two are softening each other's hard exteriors and returning to their true colors.

I think Shin Seo-Ri is actually a kind and caring Pink Person.

Yes, *this* woman is a kind and caring woman.

Which is probably why she got the dog she loved from her previous life back in her present life in the form of her menace of a neighbor.

Yes *this* man was a dog. Literally.

And Shin Seo-Ri took care of him before an evil man came along and ruined everyone's day and lunch by being evil because Shin Seo-Ri, in spite of everything that has happened to her, wants to help others like the old man who needed help looking for his grandson.

And this is why I think Shin Seo-Ri's color is lightening up since she is constantly helping Cha Se Gye without realizing it. It's also why I think her cell phone went from red (below) to pink (above).

And maybe that's why Shin Seo-Ri's coffee truck was pink because, although it wasn't her who paid for it, she was still providing something to the hardworking cast and crew.

The pink even occurred when Shin Seo-Ri mixed the wines together in an effort to unite the East x West.

So it should have been odd that she kept ending up in blue in episode six.

Until I remembered that Cha Se Gye was once a loyal and intelligent Blue Boy.

So even if in the current life he hasn't completely shed his black, he has traded in his black car for a blue 2026 Maserati MCPURA.

And just like Cha Se Gye who couldn't seem to escape the red, Shin Seo-Ri can't seem to shake the blue.

Or the past.

In their current life, Cha Se Gye gave Shin Seo-Ri two dozen red roses, but in the past, he simply gave her one red peony because it stood out, just like she does.

And just like the past, Cha Se Gye can't help but stop and admire the beauty.

Because he is a man in love.

With the woman who brings light to his life.

Each and every single one of them.

*SPOILERS*

Anyway, I feel bad for Morph. Cause they see Logan as more than what Logan sees. They were vouching for him as not a monster or an animal. So, him saying that about himself hurt Morph in a way cause they don't wanna believe what the others have said about Logan to be true. I feel like Lady Deathstrike was sympathizing with Morph on that one, and perhaps I can see them bonding too over it.

So, that's episode 5 and honestly, as it has some great moments, I'm kinda bummed about it. I'm glad Morph has gotten more character moments here, and it was cool to see Lady Deathstrike and Sabertooth. Omega Red, while his appearance was a bit brief, got to at least do some cool stuff here in this episode. Although, wanting to unleash the Brood to take over the world. Classic villain stuff. XD However, I was bummed that Maverick and Kane were dead and it felt like they were brought in just to be expendable casualties.

The episode tied the Brood and Weapon X storylines, but for a Logan episode, not a lot of focus went to him, which brings up my other issue which is the pacing. I dunno if I'm the only one noticing this, but this season's pacing has been rushing. There's been no time to see how Logan is physically and mentally after losing his adamantium, nor seeing his mutation evolve to where he gets his bone claws and seeing him how he adapted from that. No development on assembling the team, or time to realize that he needs his adamantium claws back. Hell, they could've had Logan say he needs the adamantium cause of Apocalypse being out there, and if he's not at his best, then he'd fail to help stop him and protect his people. It would've made his actions less selfish, but instead, have him lie to even his allies and friends, making him more selfish. And that costed him the lives of two of his teammates.

I remember the 90s show having time for flashbacks and even fillers to give some characters development, but this season seems to be rushing those episodes to get to more of Apocalypse's storyline, which we still don't know what his ulterior motive is in the present. I guess this is what happens when these seasons have 9-10 episodes instead of 12-20 episodes. Rushing storylines to be one episode long.

Can't help but notice Rafe looks a lot like Tanselle?

Friends, what have we done to ourselves? We have chosen in favour of the hug scene over and over, and now we must pay for it by having to make impossible choices between them... Good luck to all of us, and see you on the other side... 🫂
