Vice Versa (2022)

What a way to make it through

Vise versa is one Bl series that I'm not going to forget in my life. I have been watching Bl series for over a year but Jimmy and Sea are the first couple I'm shipping. Many people dislike this show for the reasons that I love ? it.

1, Vise versa plot: Vise versa is a slowly moving story, sometimes the plot progress at a snail pace,yet in it do I find my comfort! The trailer is misleading and I should inform you that the plot is just about Puen and Talay have this in mind before watching this Bl series. Hardly any exciting event occurs though Ep 6 ending may make you cry. However if you love a Bl series about friendship you will find this Bl series to your liking.
2, The Couple: the main reason I like Vise versa is cause of Jimmy and Sea characterized as Puen and Talay. There's no enemy to lovers situation, there's no stark chemistry between them, there's no kiss until we drop situation, rather there's a subtle but firm chemistry between the two, there's this maturity and understanding that they both exhibit that makes me feel happy, they're not just lovers but also close friends, they're not out to show that they love each other but when they look at each other you can see the love their and at the same time that hesitation when they kiss...that feeling that they are nervous,that they're not sure of what they're despite sleeping in the same bed and using the bathtub the same time. Jimmy's acting actually improved, his Smirk usually makes me to giggle or laugh or smile. Sea is also another good actor who potrays the character of Talay well, he's not sure what is going on between him and Puen till episode 9 but he cares for Puen despite not knowing him. He Goes to look for him at his parents' house, he flirts around with him and treats him like his boyfriend despite not knowing his true name . Jimmy wishing to stay back and not return is very realistic, he has no friends in his world and he just found Talay a true friend who he slowly falls in love with. Another thing that endears me to this series is how Talay and Puen residing in Tess and Tun's bodies took it upon themselves to actually advance their hosts life. Talay improves Tess's grades in school,helps Tess's father and brother in running the company. At first Puen does not to care about Tun's life until he was reprimanded by Talay, Puen will go ahead to achieve Tess's dream of being a Screenwriter. It's not surprising that Tun's parents truly love. Their loyalty to their host bodies is sharply contrasted in ep 5 with a man who returns from their universe and finds his life ruined by the guy who occupys his body. Ibelieve that Puen and Talay showcase the type of love that I did like to have.

I find their friends in the alternate universe true friends, I can see the reason why Talay and Specially Puen doesn't seem interested in returning to their universe. I feel jealous of Tess and Tun , they're always there to help or cheer up the couple. Kits and Fuse are two friends you can rely on they're ready to help Talay achieve his dream. Up and Aou who belongs to the same team with Talay and Puen... Friends'
they credit will make you laugh,they produce the sort of comedic effect that makes you laugh or smile at their childish acts. Jupjaengdied in this series but in all Bl series I have never found a character so open and understanding of others remaining optimistic even in the face of depression, her death shook me cause I wasn't expecting. Phuwadol is another true friend of Talay and Puen always there to support them, I'm sad ? she never got to confess her feelings to Jupjaeng , who I'm sure is her Portkey.

Cinematography: everyone including critics and haters of this Bl series agree on this subject.The colors, the lighting effects, the scenes and Talay's flash dress are all perfect. There's simply nothing to criticize here.

Music ?: I love the intro music it conveys the meaning of this Bl series and it's perfect for vise versa.
In conclusion you will either like this series with passion or hate it with passion, but I belong to the former, Vise versa is among the top ten best BL series I have ever watched.

it's got more to it

When I first saw the teaser trailer for "Vice Versa" at the GMMTV Expo, I couldn't help but think, "Another soul transfer plot? How overused." But after the brilliant "Bad Buddy," I was eager to see Ohm and Nanon again. When the official trailer dropped, I was convinced to give it a shot, and I also wanted to see how Jimmy and Sea would fare. I’m happy to say I did not regret it. The chemistry between Jimmy and Sea is palpable, and their acting skills are impressive.

Directed by X Nuttapong Mongkolsawas, "Vice Versa" stars Jimmy as Puen, who takes over the body of Pakorn/Tun, played by Nanon, and Sea as Talay, who takes over the body of Tess, played by Ohm. For most of the series, we follow them as they navigate the lives of Tun and Tess and their journey to return to their original bodies.

Talay is a talented new graduate who has just landed a job as a colorist. However, during a beach trip with his friends, he drowns and wakes up in an alternate universe, inhabiting the body of Tess, a spoiled rich kid. In the hospital, he meets a nurse from his own universe who explains the existence of two parallel universes and the need to find the "Portkey" to return home. Talay soon discovers that Tun, played by Puen, is also a transmigrated soul. As they work together to find their port keys, their bond strengthens. But what will happen when they return to their original universe? Will they recognize each other?

One of the highlights of the series is how Puen and Talay decide to make positive changes in the lives of Tess and Tun. In their original lives, Puen is a famous actor and Talay is a struggling colorist. When they take over Tess and Tun's bodies, they continue to work in the film industry—Tess's dad owns the biggest film production house, and Tun is a skilled scriptwriter. This continuity adds depth to the story.

Each episode is themed around a different color and title, staying true to the cinematic and production motif, which I found quite engaging. The gradual unraveling of the plot and the exploration of Puen and Talay's lives and struggles were well-executed and compelling.

A fun aspect of the show was guessing the cameo of the week, with many famous faces making guest appearances. Each episode also featured an enjoyable post-credit scene showcasing new Lay's flavors, adding a touch of light-heartedness.

"Vice Versa" brings a fresh twist to the BL genre with its soul-switching and parallel universe plot. It’s far from boring; the story is beautifully crafted. If you think you’ve seen it all in soul transfer dramas, this series will surprise you with its unique approach and heartfelt narrative.

JIMMYXSEA DID NOT COME TO DISAPPOINT!!!

Honestly, I am out of words. The series are beautiful from the start until the end. I really like how Jimmy and Sea always have the best script and series. They lean more towards meaningful relationship kind of plot, its giving me award winning indie series. I love that they know their character very well and portraying characters are 10/10. I seriously have not much words because their acting is top notch. If I am allow to complain, I would have prolly would say its a shame that Tess and Tun doesn't have much part, like it were not shown enough like what they did as Peung and Thalay. I wish they could have more part but oh well! Other than this, its not a major improvement needed since everything is perfect!

Can I just say that I really love that they have name for each of the episode and its based from colour name???????? The plot is pure and really portrays love in such beautiful way. I like that Thalay have character development but I hate Tess's character like he didn't even try to help Thalay with his life, he almost ruined his life but thank freaking god for the switch! Even though 2 years has passed, I am still glad they manage to go back to their universe.

I don't want to write much spoiler and just that if you understand Multi universe then you will love this series so before you watch this series, I would have advise you to at least read about multi universe concept so you don't get lost.

Love this series absolutely! <3

EVERYTHING IS A 10/10 BUTTTTTTT

Whenever I watch series that is already completed, I always finish it in one-go. I started watching the first episode last night and finished the rest just a while ago.

I have to apologize if my overall rating is 8/10 although the suggested overall is 9/10. That's because I skipped too many parts all throughout the series. Recently, I like watching series with an episode of 15-40mins long each.

I have nothing to say about the intriguing and unique story, the flawless acting of casts, and the emotional music.

There are several factors that I would like to mention that failed to amuse me while watching this:

1. The scenes are way too long. There are too many dialogues. Some moments, either cute or sad, ended up dull.
2. The main actors are both great individually but their chemistry is off in episodes 2-9. I would blame this on the character development for Talay that the writer/s had made for them.
3. Is it just me only but does Thai dramas always have many sponsorships? Annoying like Filipino dramas. But Filipino and Thai acting is topnotch if you'll ask me.

--------------------

If you plan to watch this like 1-3 episodes per day, I recommend this sincerely.

Outcome didn't match the potential

GOOD at the beginning
OKAY/MEH in the middle
GREAT towards the end


Probably the most interesting feature of this series is the uniqueness of the plotline: two young men waking up in a different universe in different people’s bodies. Where have we heard of a BL like that? It’s my first time.

The series started off well, with Ohm (Tess) and Nanon (Pakorn) and their undeniably strong chemistry and acting skills, as well as Jimmy (Puen) and Sea (Talay). In all fairness to Jimmy and Sea their duo is screaming refreshing chemistry. The plot is unique and well thought of.

However, I lost the “waking-up-in-a-different-universe” and “I’m-a-different-person-in-this-body” vibe. When Puen and Talay woke up in Pakorn’s and Tess’s bodies, it seems that they just lived their lives like that. Everyone was noticing weird things such as not being familiar with stuff in the different universe or not remembering their loved ones, but no one was wondering. To me, it did not feel that authentic because who would not be wondering why they can’t remember their parents or the things they used to do? I lost the vibe of the plotline that made me want to watch the series in the first place.

Talay, for example, woke up as Tess. Talay is a timid, gentle person who is focused and driven, while Tess is carefree and troublesome, but no one wondered about those changes in Tess after Talay being in his body.

Also, it would have been more convincing if, at some point, we could see the original person’s appearance once in a while, like what we saw in Cupid’s Last Wish when the character appears to be the original person sometimes. That made the plotline real and strong for me. It would not be that bad, I guess, knowing that Ohm and Nanon have excellent chemistry.

I would have liked to see more of getting familiar with the different universe just so it would retain its vibe. Instead, after the first two episodes, the series became just like the other series that have happened - falling in love, having funny friends and having tiny and shallow conflicts. I did not feel that eager to watch the next episode quickly because in the middle, it felt like just the usual Thai BL.

But in all fairness, it became really, really good towards the end, like in episodes 8 to 10, when it began touching again on Puen and Talay’s quest in going back to their universe. It added meaning to the way the series ended. It was great when Puen came back first to their universe and began looking and waiting for Talay. And when the latter came back, it did not become relatively easy for them to be finally together, especially realizing what and who Puen is in their universe. I also did appreciate the way they used the symbols such as the pink color, the garden cafe, etc. which made everything meaningful until towards the end of this series.

Jimmy’s acting can still be honed. There were times when the emotions required of him is not quite there yet, but he was off to a great start. Sea, on the other hand, is a surprise to me. His acting is good. He can be both funny and dramatic. Amazing!

Overall, it’s an ‘okay’ watch. Besides the interesting plot, the rest can be easily forgettable. But if we’re talking about the feeling ‘during’ watching, it’s good for overall entertainment. I’m excited to see Jimmy and Sea in their upcoming series.

VICEVERSA

I honestly didn't think that this series was going to be so good,actually just after watching 5 episodes I dropped it,about 1 year ago.
Only today,after seeing JimmySea in Last Twilight,I watched and realised that this is a piece of ART.
It really made my standards for series so high,like the cast,the plot,the chemistry between the leads...were just...AMAZING.
Let's not also forget the hard work of the staff,because the coloring,the aesthetic,the makeup,the styling...were really PERFECT.
I will never shut up about this series being soooo good and I absolutely recommend this series to everyone,because it isn't only a series that has romance and friendship,but it also teaches you a lot of deep things without overpowering.

Absolute Perfection

Now... there is only one episode but I‘d say that this is definitely one of gmmtv’s best bls. I have quite a few reasons for why. ((Excuse my bad grammar))

THINGS I LIKE/ENJOY
1. SOUNDTRACK || music choices are absolute perfection. They’re calming, fun, and just enjoyable to listen to.
2. CHARACTERS || Absolutely hilarious, they’re all chaotic and embarrassing (in a good way) they make it a really enjoy able watch.
3. ACTING//ACTORS || Mwah, chefs kiss. I love all the main cast Jimmy, Sea, Ohm, and Nanon. All of them have absolutely stunning visuals (especially Jimmy lol)
4. STORYLINE (this is where I’m a bit “biased”) || I absolutely adore switching bodies//body transmittion ,or whatever it’s called, books/shows. They’re cute, help characters understand each other, and are always chaotic. Making this (in my opinion) one of the best storylines//genres to exist.

THINGS I DONT LIKE//HATE (continuation of being biased lmao)
1. “CONFUSING” || The show itself does indeed explain why/what happens. Not how it happens though (it’s only the first episode so keep that in mind) Maybe the show might be able to give a deeper explanation that would be great. There are so many people that have said it’s confusing to the point where I’ve lost count. And yes I understand they’re being introduced to a new show that might have a different plot then what they’re used to.
2. PEOPLE THAT HATE THE SHOW BECAUSE ITS “CONFUSING” || now, I have seen soooo many kinnporsche “fans” complain about this show cause it so called “confusing” which I understand of course, some people need some time to learn about show’s plots and stuff -which is 100% okay- HOWEVER, here’s the catch. Most of them are 27-30yr old white women that fetishize mlm relationships. And they don’t like it because they don’t fck in the first episode or just because the actors are apparently “ugl”.. yes I have seen them say this on tiktok and other platforms so pls don’t come at me. People may have their own preference for things but please DO NOT bring your preferences into these shows just because they don’t have exactly what you want, plots, visuals, and everything else.

EXPLAINING THE STORY LINE FOR PEOPLE WHO MIGHT NOT UNDERSTAND (ALTERNATE UNIVERSE)
Talay (Sea’s character) is a colourist - someone who adjusts colours for films - goes to a beach one day with his friends to celebrate, and ends up passing away. A while later he ends up waking up in a alternate universe and in a different person’s body, Tess (Ohm’s character) He is overly confused and doesn’t realize what happened when he happens to run into a nurse that tries to help him. She explains that to Talay that the only way he can get back is by finding his portkey. And there Talay goes to find his portkey while trying to understand Tess’s//alternate universe. (Hopefully this makes sense and that my grammar isn’t too bad)

- thanks for listing to my mini rant about this show lmfao, have a nice day//night :D
