Honestly nick is the only reason why I'm bi and not lesbian (joking I'm definitely bi but I know some people that are what I just described sorry my English is not very good and it's late)
Nick is 100% a sweetheart. This show has been out for less than a week and I've already watched it 3 times and read all 4 volumes of the graphic novel series. I might be a little obsessed. Loved your episode 1 reaction - looking forward to future episodes!
I watched the whole show, then read the graphic novels and now I’m watching the show AGAIN through reactions. So RELATABLE, and I just want to protect Charlie and nick forever.
charlie: *gets put next to nick* “ooh are we about to get some classic homophobia” me, who has watched the show more than once and read the comic three times since 2017: oh harry
Having read the graphic novels. I’ve never seen an adaptation so perfect which I’m guessing is down to the fact that the author of the novels wrote the script and produced the show it feels so authentic and realistic and the fact the actors are 18-20 it’s so perfect xx
I want a Nick... Funnily enough we had one at my school, his name is Larry, star rugby player, good looking, good grades and very kind and humble and treated everyone with such respect... So they do exist
Arguably the best reaction to Heartstopper I've seen so far (and I've seen a lot. I mean, A LOT). I love your insights and how you relate the events in the show to your own experience. Very informative and engaging! Can't wait for your reaction to next episodes!
16:35 why is nobody talking about this cute laugh?? I LOVE this scene SO much, Charlie is way too cute here and I love your reaction hehe (your whole reaction to the entire show is awesome too btw!!)
I LOVE YOUR REACTION! I was almost exactly the same...I am a bit older than you, so what affected me most is so unfortunate for us that we didn't have this positive content for queer people of my age. Closest thing was Beautiful Thing in 1996, but I was still too old (30 in 96) to appreciate it as a teen. I really love this so much though, and wish so much I could have had this show as a teen. But well done on your reaction! Brian
I know how you feel buddy. I was born in 1991 and I think there was very little LGBT Romance stories other than the "Forbidden Fruit" types, if you catch my drift. I'm also glad to see it blending into the media nowadays, we have come a long way! :-D
I'm watching your reactions for the second time because I'm obsessed. In the meantime I watched other people's reactions too and I can say with certainty that yours are the best. Truly.
i’ve been on a heartstopper react binge and i love your reactions !! seeing you pour your love out for this show the same way i did is so heartwarming. hope you have a great day
The boy who saved Charlie from Ben, his name is Nicholas Nelson but we call him Nick, and that’s what he is called throughout the rest of the show, I hope this helps, because he is a very important character and has a lot of development. Please continue to watch this on here, I love it, and there is also a graphic novel series that was based on this! I hope this helps!
I've watched this show 2 times and it's not enough. It's so good. Everyone is so well written, the interactions are gorgeous and such good role models for kids. I really hope this show gets more seasons. I've never seen a show that makes feel this way and shows such important interactions with queer people. A+ for representation. You'll be obsessed by the time you finish. I'm gonna go cry gay tears of happiness now.
Currently binging Heartstopper reactions😅 Loved your reaction! I love in this episode that Nick is never scared of interacting with Charlie because he's gay, Nick just likes him and treats him as a new friend. That Golden Retriever energy!
I really like your videos! You're very thoughtful and analytical, and I like that with reaction videos. Just letting you know because I like hearing your in-depth thoughts about Heartstopper, you don't get that much discussing and more of reacting when it comes to YT reactions usually. Nice videos.
The show has more than paid it’s dues in an homage to its WEBTOON roots by not hiding that fact and actually making it a big form of their marketing. Alice, the author, was so heavily involved with the cast and crew and heavily consulted on everything. They got literally everything from Charlie’s backpack, all the way down to the shoes he and Nick wear. It’s the littlest details that make the biggest impact. I reread the books after watching the show and it is so closely followed concerning the story. They don’t deviate too far and it’s something that I’m sure a lot of people have appreciated. It’s pretty emotional, seeing characters in drawing just leap to life and become real people, they’ve captured everything so well and it made me cry because it was perfect representation. I love seeing people appreciate the show and such as much as I do.
I love this show so much!! And I love all the graphic novels (that are out so far) as well! I loved your reaction and insights! Can't wait to see your reaction to the rest of the season!
It’s really true though that this show takes you back to that time when you were unsure of yourself, and you got butterflies and overanalyzed every single interaction you had with a crush. And everything was so hard to deal with. Ugh, young love….🥰
So glad when anyone discovers this show. It just makes me smile. Watched quite a few reactions to this show and yours is brilliant. So funny and insightful
Euros Lyn was the series director. He has directed many episodes of Doctor Who, Torchwood, Sherlock, Broadchurch etc. Alice Oseman was there as an Executive Producer and adviser on the show. She was there at nearly every scene to make sure the director got it right.
@@arcadianico he turns 15 in the show he’s 14 when they start dating as stated in books and it makes sense since they started dating after the party before his birthday So no he’s 14 at this time 15 at the end of the show 😄 sorry if this sounds rude
@@arcadianico lol it’s okay! I really had to go to Netflix to make sure it didn’t say 16 cause my brain actually thought it said 16 and I was wrong 😭😭!!!
your thoughts and insights are so amazing. i’ve already watched this twice and it feels like re-watching it with an friend!! this show is amazing and i’m so glad to see people praising it. so excited to watch more from you!💗
Not much for one for react channels but loved your comments. Like you said I wish I had a Nick back then but you couldn't even hint at being gay when I was in highschool. I think I've rewatched this about 10 times because its so heartwarming
Its amazing to see the books acted out, by such great actors to boot. This show (and the books) make my emotions compete with each other. One side fills my heart with warmth and hope. Other side, makes me envious of another life. Its brilliant.
I really hope you don't hate tao like everyone else, he can be a little dramatic and scared but he is just trying to protect the people he loves and also dealing with abandonment traumas🥺
@@ksiazkolub.pospolity3229 tbh the reason why people hate him so much is that his intention was not explained that well in the show. in the comic, it was better explained better for why he acted that way for charlie and nick and why he was being overprotective. idk that is what I think
Tao was a little too much for me. I realize he was trying to protect his friend but the way he was going about was at times just as harsh and emotionally damaging as the relationship with Ben.
By saying "we are barely friends anyway" to someone he KNOWS has mental issues and staying angry with him even after his conversation with nick just to spite Charlie, he really lost a lot of my respect. Charlie was already feeling horrible, he didn't need that.
@@Lilithly they are both teenagers, and both have issues, so what's your point? Anyways "we are barely friends anyways" meaned tao didn't feel appreciated by Charlie as friends (obviously it was a misunderstanding), didn't you watch the fvcking show? Geez
Just subscribed to your channel. I loved watching this show so much and enjoyed your reactions to different scenarios so much. The fact that you don't over exaggerate your reaction. I'm american but ive been so fascinated with the British culture ... sometimes i feel like ive been stuck where i am .. similar to when people say theyve been born at the wrong time. There's something so wholesome about this show and British culture, maybe i'm just looking through rose-tinted glasses but this show did things to me. I also love your avatar wall in the backround.
Absolutely LOVED your reaction!!! this show is so so sweet! 💕 Once you’ve watched this, you should consider checking out Bad Buddy Series. It’s a Thai BL and you can watch it on RU-vid with Eng subtitles and it’s SO worth it. I literally can’t recommend it enough!!! 💜
Your reaction is adorable lol. I think I had similar reactions. I think I'll watch the rest of your reaction videos ☺️🙃. And I completely agree about your Ben assessment. The actor that plays him is lovely. But that tells us how well he acts since he makes us hate him especially in Ep 1.
I learned this info from others who have watched this show but legally Elle didn't HAVE to switch schools. In the UK, trans people in single sex/gendered schools can stay in whatever school they are in and transition....but I assume a lot of them do switch for comfort/bullying reasons, probably. But, legally, they dont have to. Kinda interesting to learn. I'm from Canada. Most schools here (even private ones) are mixed & not segregated by sex.
Interesting what you were saying about the sports/rugby kids; growing up in the late 90s early 00s in Oz, the sports jocks at my school were basically the nicest people in the year. I always found the cliches funny given my experience. Now the drama kids, that's where the arses were.
i realy love this show i lost count how many time i watch this and i cant waite for season 2 i fund out there is going to 2 more season of heartstopper i love kit and joe they are the sweeies people.( nick and charlie)
