ELYSE AND SEVI CAME OUT FROM THE BOOK
Let's start with the story. "Chasing In The Wild" is arguably the most renowned entry in Gwy's University Series, having been the gateway for her other works to gain recognition. What stands out about this story is its realistic portrayal of life, including family dynamics, the challenges of adulting, the struggles of recent graduates trying to establish themselves, and themes of love, slow-burn romance, and healthy relationships. It effectively captures Elyse and Sevi’s transition from their carefree youth to their more mature selves, reflecting real-life experiences throughout.Next, the casting is top-notch. The series features experienced actors like Dominic Ochoa and Angelu De Leon, among others. Gab, despite his American upbringing shows an incrdiy “kanal” humor, and he shown significant improvement since his roles in "TRIE" and "SSA." I can no longer see the Vegas boy in him. Meanwhile, Hya truly embodies Elyse, proving her critics wrong, especially in a recent emotional scene with Dominic Ochoa. Her natural ability to cry convincingly adds a heartfelt touch, and her conyo and slang are effortlessly authentic. Gab and Hya share a chemistry that feels genuine and engaging, even in their simplest interactions. Though there’s always room for growth, their performances are commendable and compliments each other as they have this natural connection which is hard to find in most of the LT. They are doing great and for sure they will do even more!
Finally, the music is excellent. The background score is well-crafted, enhancing the series' chill and romantic vibes, with particularly effective sound effects that intensify key moments, like the basketball scenes.
Having rewatched the series multiple times, I find its emotional impact growing stronger. The narrative’s choice to start in the past with no foreknowledge of the future adds depth. The additional scenes enrich the story, offering better context and connections between events. The development of characters, especially Alfred, is well-handled. Sevi’s perspective at the end of each episode adds a unique touch which add flavor to the series. I highly recommend this series; it stands out as an exceptional adaptation, even for someone who usually isn’t a fan of adapt like me. It’s a must-watch for real!
