tronellaSo I still feel like yelling about this episode, but I guess it's still to early to post spoilers on twitter, so I'll post my important drama feelings under a cut here. Please talk to me about it too :?
1) Nekota is awesome, I hope she gets more to do than run around after Tokai in future episodes though.
2) Miwa didn't get much to do! Actually I barely noticed her when watching it live, but after subbing it I realised she does talk with Sera a lot.
3) There are really a lot of different male doctors in this show, how am I supposed to tell them all apart? Especially when they are wearing face masks half the time???
4) The scene with Tokai talking to his mother on the phone!!! "why don't you have 5 girlfriends" really made me laugh a lot. Also... yet another Nino character with father issues, what a surprise. I'm looking forward to more backstory!
5) Competent Nino is ... so hot ♥
6) I don't think this part was supposed to be funny, but Minagawa's face when Sera was like "I worked out that you like this one tree" was HILARIOUS to me. Her eyes bugged right out.
7) In the meeting about using the snipe on Minagawa, when the director says that Saeki is the chair of the ethics committee, I genuinely gasped in horror, haha. Since I always translate stuff about ethics committees at work, it really amuses me that ethics committee membership was such a point of drama XD
8) Do you think Takashina actually did know about the aneurysm? Is he 100% evil or is he just being used by Nishizaki and/or Saeki?
9) lol Tokai slicing his food really thinly at the "study group".
10) I don't understand why Saeki thinks Tokai cares about not being allowed to use his fancy black pean. Like who cares about that? Well, clearly a lot of people, but it's stupid >:(
11) I'm sort of annoyed that I have to write SNIPE in capitals all the time, but that's how it's written in the unpublished paper that they got from the trial coordinator.
12) My final QC check was to search the whole sub file for the word "spine" just in case I wrote that instead of "snipe"... amazingly, I had not.

Date: 2018-04-25 03:50 am (UTC)I'm not sure about all the surgeons immediately going to pieces the minute the surgery goes wrong (although I did enjoy the blood spurting everywhere). I can get them faltering or freezing up but turning into screaming, trembling messes seems a little over the top, and then despite the seriousness they all stand around for 5 minutes doing nothing while Nino threatens them.
Like, I'm not expecting super realism from a medical drama but it could be a touch more believable, they are trained professionals after all and time is of the essence.
I think Takashina didn't know. He was too busy thinking that the SNIPE would be a political blow for the hospital that he didn't really look at the rest of the patient's scans. Saeki definitely knew though and he fully banked on Tokai fixing it up once he let the problem go ahead so he could win politically.
My main theory at the moment is that the Black Pean used to belong to Tokai's Dad, and Saeki left that clamp in the patient but put the blame on the Dad and started using the Black Pean himself. Tokai's there at the hospital to find out the truth (and get revenge) and claim it back for himself.

Date: 2018-04-25 10:50 am (UTC)Yeah, the standing around doing nothing bothered me a bit. But I guess they are dramatically necessary for the most part. I was really taken aback by the surgeons' shaky hands... surely they've been trained for this kind of pressure!
Interesting theory. I'm looking forward to finding out more about that backstory.
