Is this okay to start now or wait for the backstory to finish base on the comments I see

Personally, marinated it first. So it'll not left u bitter, since s2 might be half angst

there’s a lot of angst and messy relationship in s1, but the author said s2 will be tamer (probably). s1 ended on a cliffhanger so I’d let it marinate more if you want to stop at a satisfying part
