I'm going to be honest I only started watching because I recognize one of the main actors from Lovely Writer and the other one is so fkn pretty but anyway -- it was surprisingly good?? Joe's actor is very expressive and I loved watching him. I guess the plot is a bit trope-y but I don't really mind that. And I feel so sad for Joe because he's clearly going to get treated like a ragdoll the entire time, and he's so nice T-T Anyway I liked it except for the drunk hookup at the end-- why does every series keep trying to make it a thing? No thanks

Ok so after idk how much time stalling I finally finished the series and I have mixed feelings about this episode. First of all, I think that time jumps as a storytelling device are kind of weak for this kind of series. It's not long enough to evoke nostalgia, and it tries to force a sense of character growth that the viewer hasn't been present for. Why did it have to be three years later? What impact does that have on the story, that the viewer is aware of? The characters are practically the same -they only have different occupations. Second of all - Mhok was way too insistent when trying to get Day back. I understand that Day is kind of into it, but if I were him I'd be turned off by the repeated unasked physical contact, babying, and on-the-nose pleas for a second chance. Then, about the wedding -beautiful, amazing, I love Phojai and Night so much. And finally. I don't like that Day got his sight back. I'll expand on this in the review.

The main couple is so good (and so is the other one), but I just don't care about the dramaaa - like I think it's still the acting or smth because I found myself skipping ahead multiple times during the episode. Also hated the scene where they're clowns bc what are y'all doinggg not in front of the kids aghhh

I'm not going to lie, I can feel that they wanted me to love this episode but I didn't. It's fine, it's not bad at all, but I found it lacking in many aspects. For starters, I don't think the emotional scenes were that well acted. The actors have great chemistry, but when they're going through or recounting such heartwrenching situations I just don't *feel* that sadness yk? I guess I'll never be the same after the acting in Bad Buddy oh well. And another thing, I'd have preferred the dad to stay as a morally grey character. He did abandon his kids after all, and it felt like they forgave him completely without a reason? I think he's a deeply flawed individual who's been hurt and has hurt others, and both sides of him should be acknowledged.

Just like in the og I sympathize so much with Atom and Mudmee because sports will never be my thing. I love all the couples but, just like in the og, I don't really like Kongthap/Ida's response to being confessed to. "More than friends but less than boyfriends" is very vague and it's kind of playing with Atom's (very real) feelings.

Bumping up the rating just because my girl took a leap of faith and I nearly died while watching her scene with Half. Well done

I'm not gonna lie, this was the first episode I fully enjoyed. I love seeing Atom and Kongthap's relationship progress, and Mudmee and Half are so cute as well. Half being so oblivious is so funny lol like I feel for Mudmee

So. I fucking loved ep 2 of the Japanese version. This one? Not so much. I think, what made the Japanese one so good was that Aoki volunteered even though he didn't want to, to save Hashimoto, and she was SO grateful and you could see it in her face. Aoki pushed through it and did the stage as best as he could and at the end Ida caught him and it was the first time Aoki felt something for him. Here? It's not awkward, Atom somehow knows all the dialogue, doesn't stumble once, and the stage is so professional it doesn't look like a highschool play at all. I also feel like they're moving so fast even though the episodes are so long? Idk. I don't mind them skipping the 'dressing like a girl' bit, and I genuinely liked the traditional Thai costumes. But.. at the end of the day, this is a highschool play.

The first two episodes of the original MLMU were my absolute favorites so the bar was quite literally sky-high. Even though I still prefer those, this ep was absolutely adorable. Fourth's acting is still supreme -- Gemini's doesn't really shine, because Ida/Kongthap doesn't emote that much. But I love the story and the confusion as much as I did in the OG. And the scene with the veggies was adorable as well.

The day they stop putting fujoshi characters in BL series will be the day I die from joy. ------ Not Mork kissing Pi right outside his house when in previous eps it's been established that there's people from their school who live nearby T-T someone's gonna see youuuu (also, he should have asked first. But anyway) ---- them running around the house while Mork is too horny to function trying to avoid getting caught was funny though

I just finished the episode and barely remember most of it. The last confession is cute, I guess, but I would have liked it better if Pi had found out about Mork's identity in some other way. Maybe he could have caught him texting? Or used his phone for a call and seen the logged in account? Idk, but anything more creative than being *told* about it (and also, Pi didn't even react that much to it?? It was hyped up as this big deception/mystery and then he found out and nothing happened). ------- The girl is annoying. And Mork is also annoying for letting her be annoying. I'd be begging her to leave me alone lmao

The fujoshi characters keep annoying the fuck out of me. And MORK?? Are you insane????? These are the people who're stalking the man you claim to love, posting pictures of him without his consent and digging up his family history, and you agree to do an interview with them? Yeah I have no respect for him after that. If he cared about Pi he would tell them all to fuck off. ---- I also don't like the "let's make him jealous" plotline. It's so exhausting

I love that they have trained me like a dog and now every time the aspect ratio changes I know Duean is coming onscreen lmao ---- Pi is dumb as shit though like how do you listen to your brother's advice and come to THAT conclusion?? Omfg. That guy has rejected you alreadyy, learn to respect people's boundaries. But otherwise it was a decent episode, better than the previous ones, I think

I watched this two days ago and didn't come back to it because I thought we weren't done yet. But anyways I think they were cute , the "I love you"s were CRAZY bc y'all have been together for like one second --- but it's ok because they're happy. Haruna is the captain of this ship and so am I. Nothing else to add
