Well, that's what one of the Tags says:-) What is this actually, though? The synopsis says: "Follow Padlom's passionate love story..." There's no way to do that, as 1) the series is light-toned and far from passionate intense story 2) Padlom herself does not know for more than half the series whom should she have her love story WITH (I won't say exactly when she's no longer in the dark so there are no spoilers, but I say anything that lasts more than halfway through the story is substantial). Do you find that romantic? If not, let's get back to the reverse-harem.

If any girl is entitled to have a reverse-harem it definitely is Sutatta, one of the hottest thai young actresses, totally beautiful skin... I'm not sure about her makeup in this, but never mind, anyone would look georgeous alongside Ampere, so no worries. The real question what is this kind of "harem" good for.

As this show does not keep a secret, we have 7 boys. Doesn't mean though, that all 7 boys are likeable. That all 7 are available, even. But there should be at least 1 boy who likes Padlom for sure. Because, that is the plot. But there was this point in the story where Padlom decided that she doesn't want to know who it is anonymously courting her: and agreed that I would not want to know, either. In the age of internet, there's enough virtual friends/boyfriends already. A boy should pursue girl all the way. Else it's not romantic. Even if assured it's one of the 7 boys: if they wanted to hide in the dark, then I would make them stay there. Nevertheless, the writers decided that the viewer is suppposed to be thrilled about this and keep looking for clues episode after episode. I busied myself with the 90's thai music, the club activities, side stories... all the entertainment this series had BUT romance. Which simply is not there... yet.

I've read some other reviews. They praise the "potential romance". Well, looks like I still prefer ACTUAL romance, LOL.

For romance, it's just a bit... crowded. I usually complain when there is a love-triangle, but here, as all 7 share the screentime pretty equally, so each of them has little, we don't get to know anyone enough. For me, I'm afraid sometimes I even mistook one for another. For example, if one of them sits on the bench with Sutatta and just talks to her, I can't tell for sure whether it's the one who's rich and buying things for everyone, or the one doing push-ups all the time... And now imagine he says that HE's the secret suitor? How do I even know? LOL. But I certainly won't re-watch whole series this boring just to sort my memory of all the guys in there!:-) So, if I could make 1 wish for any future romance Sutatta plays in, it's this: Please, no more harems.

See, I've been bitching about the series all while long...;-) But I must admit the 90's theme was a nice touch. The fictional "90's romantic music video" the characters made was shown in full. Funny!:-D And the romance... Scatterbrained viewer like me wasn't enjoying it (too many people:) till literally the last episode. Then finally we start asking the opposite question: not who likes Padlom, but is there someone Padlom likes?:-) So, maybe if I paid more attention from the beginning I would enjoy this better, but at least thanks to that last episode I give rating higher than average.
