Okay, what another AMAZING episode!! I'm seriously impressed with the writers for keeping me hook week after week. So, there was so many things I loved, I'm just gonna list them.
1.CanSel were seriously cute!! After weeks of angst I'm glad they got cute and teasing moments
2.Canan and Akgün!! That scene in the kitchen! When she told him he'd always have a plate at their table. Oh man, I almost burst into tears along with Akgün
3.Soner and Akgün's fight. That scene seriously made me tear up. It sucks because Soner does have a point. People will always judge them and be wary of them. Alperen is seriously such a GOOD actor. The way he was visibly flinching from Sober 's words. And his utter devastation clear on his face. That's the first time he's let his emotions completely take over. Usually he's able to control himself. Even Yağmur was sort of shocked to see him like that
4.Selim telling Akgün about his childhood. And Akgün listening to him attentively like a child. You could tell the story resonated with him because it's so similar to him. And then at the end slyly asking about the university lol. I really want Akgün to go back to college
5.The dinner scene LMAO. Akgün looked like he wanted the ground to swallow him whole, Yağmur with her sarcasm, and Canan sitting back and enjoying the show
6.Finally Akmur. What can I say about them?? They were absolute PERFECTION!! Alperen and Hafsanur are soo good together!!!Their cute secret meeting, Akgün dropping her off to school, jealous Akgün striking again lol. Him introducing her to his dad. Yağmur being shy, she's adorable. I feel like we were robbed of the full kiss. Idk how I feel about the proposal. Like I'm happy but they're still too young
Oh and last thing Akgün running after Selim is calling for him. LMAOOO, the way I rewinded that several times. Meme worthy!
Sorry if this got too long. I'll try to control myself next time
Lolll do not even worry about controlling yourself, you are 1000% free to go wild in my askbox 😂😂😂
Cansel was adorable in this ep. I am voluntarily choosing to forget that part where he insulted her ability as a lawyer, but everything else was cute! That part near the end, before their meeting with that mafia guy, when Selim was staring at her and she pushed his head away, absolutely adorableeeee.
That Canan and Akgün scene had me tearing up!!! I love their scenes so much! I know y’all like to say that Alperen does not look 20 years old, but in those scenes with Canan, he becomes so childlike and polite and innocent. Idk I feel like it’s believable in those moments.
Oooof, that fight with Soner and Akgün was sooo sad. Soner really verbalized all of Akgün’s worst fears in that moment. And poor Soner, like he’s scared to follow Akgün down this path because he feels like he doesn’t deserve to change, that he’s trash and he’ll always be trash. Not only that, but comments on youtube convinced me that part of the reason why he reacted in that way was because he’s scared Akgün’s going to leave him behind. Like he said, they’re all each other has. He feels like if Akgün actually changes and is actually accepted by Selim and his family, then he would have no one and would really be all alone. So-nerrrrr bby! Also, on a lighter note, how adorable was Akgün about the club in this episode??? He was just so excited and he was taking it so seriously and was so hopeful!! I loved seeing him like that!!
Oh my god that dinner scene had me dead!!!! It was so awkward and uncomfortable and HILARIOUS!!!
Akmur’s flirty-ness was at an all-time high during this episode, I could not believe!!! And Akgün at Yağmur’s school, showin up and showin out in front of everyone, trying to let them know that she’s taken. UNBELIEVABLEEEE! HE’S SO ANNOYINGGGG 😂😂😂😂 And Akgün introducing her to his dad had me crying. When his dad said that Akgün was right and that she’s as beautiful as his mother, oh my god. I couldn’t handle it.
Now the proposal. At first, when I watched it live and without translations, all I could really get from Akgün and Selim’s conversation was that Selim’s past was similar to Akgün’s and then he met Canan, changed his life and went to law school for her, and then proposed early on in their relationship. So, when Akgün proposed I understood that he was kinda following in Selim’s footsteps, but I still couldn’t help but feel like it was all a little out of nowhere and too fast. After, watching with the subtitles, it really made so much sense why he proposed. Like he is literally in the same position that Selim described. He’s scared of the kind of person he is/his past, he’s having a hard time adapting to this new version of himself, and what did Selim say helped him overcome it? Canan. So, of course Akgün’s going to think, well if Canan was Selim’s savior, then Yağmur is mine, of course he’s going to propose. So on one hand, I do still think that it’s way too fast (like damn can they go on a normal date first before we get to the kız isteme???!), but on the other, I am incredibly emotional over the fact that Yağmur is Akgün’s miracle and that Akgün genuinely wants to spend the rest of his life with her. And since he has every intention on telling Selim, I am so interested in seeing how that’s going to go in this next episode. Although, I am wondering if Yağmur even says yes to Akgün’s proposal. I mean she’s got plans for her life and wants to have a career and become a lawyer and everything (not to say that marriage and a career are mutually exclusive or anything), plus her parents got married young and she knows how that turned out for them, specifically for her mother. I just wonder if all of that will be a factor in her decision.
