Saw it trending in Overseerr so i snatched the whole season cause i needed something to watch this weekend.
I went in blind, all I know is that is based on some Chinese Novels.
I watched the first couple of episodes and so far:
- The two main characters are insufferable girl bosses, specially the Eiza Gonzalez character. Like the bestests of the best in their fields.
- Males are either simps and / or buffons.
- Every relationship is interracial. Asian / Curry eater, with white dude simping over 6/10 Asian. Whitexican Coal burner.
- Cop is kid is a faggot, because.. reasons?
I HIGHLY doubt a Chinese author would create these characters, so this makes me believe NF just did a Witcher 2.0.
Anyone that has read the books or is familiar with the story, whats the take?
What is Overseerr?
First hit on search.brave.com
Not the guy you're responding to but I just read that site several times, and still have no idea what it does. There's zero context about what requests are and how they work. Is this a torrent thing? Do random people on the internet request access to my server? Do files get downloaded or are things streamed?
It's a pretty shit site.
Looks like a plugin for Plex that will show you recommendations.
You have to really buy into Plex and have a group of users that you provide access to. Imagine you are the Plex server owner with a library of liberated content that you provide to friends and family (who run Plex clients) similar to netflix. I don't run Plex myself but I know some who do, for their parents and siblings.
But Plex already does that. I've given access to friends and family, so I'm not sure what this adds unless it's truly for finding stuff that strangers have and requesting access to it. The site just does a very poor job of explaining what it actually does.
Edit: After quite a bit more reading, it does appear to be torrent related. Radarr and Sonarr do the searching for movies and TV, and initiate the torrent downloads. Overseerr appears to be mostly a recommendation system, with the ability to queue things in those other programs when you find a recommendation you want.
And it doesn't appear to be a Plex plugin, it's a whole separate application that works with Plex and uses it for user management, but isn't really integrated.
