Unwatchable for people over the age of 13
I remember hearing about the series when I was younger and it was fairly hyped so I, as an adult, decided to give it a go, mainly because I’ve been getting into watching BL series.
SOTUS has been by far one of the worst series I have ever had the displeasure to watch, so much so that I couldn’t finish it for a long time (I forced myself to in order to give it the benefit of the doubt until the end)
#1 Acting
Was decent at times, but mostly amateurish, I blame it on the lack of chemistry between the leads and the overall exaggerated situations, which is the biggest flaw of the show
#2 Story
Horrible. I understand exaggerating an aspect of reality in a series or a movie, that is normal, but the lengths that the writers go to make Arthit the most unlikable character in history while simultaneously putting all the characters in ridiculous situations that could never happen in real life is insane to me. It’s not about not being realistic, it’s UNBELIEVABLE, the hazing scenes are insane and the fact that there are little to no consequences for the horrible things the older students do baffles me. No redemption arc was good enough for that piece of shit.
#3 Main leads
I felt that they were bros but there was little to no romantic energy, their kiss was laughable (to be fair at that time all bl kisses were shit, but most of them had somewhat of a chemistry). Arthit became unbearable to watch and he acted like a 12yr old girl most of the series, I just felt like no adult would act in such weird, cringe and horrible way. It was unrealistic and hard to watch, had to skip a good part of the show because of that
#4 It was good for its time
I understand why it was a hit back in the day, people really didn’t have much content to choose from in the bl world so it made sense. However, if you compare it so bad buddy, I told sunset about you, A tale of a 1000 stars or any of these very good BLs, it would be impossible to point out any positive traits of this series. It’s just not good.
SUMMARY: Don’t watch it if u want to watch something actually good, only for nostalgic purposes
