Our Skyy 2 (2023)

some hits, mostly misses

if I had to pick, the ones worth watching, to me the episodes are from Star In My Mind, A Boss and a Babe, and Vice Versa. they give what I wanted from their series and then more. there was growth, some development to the characters, their stories, and, dare i say it, some actual entertainment.

The Eclipse episodes were half-assed at best in terms of the writing and it upset me a lot they were given some weak story filler that, being brutally honest, felt like a waste of both first and khaotung's time and efforts. i also wanted more from NLMG. their episodes were good, though the beginning just felt like a car ad (get that coin, boys), but it just made me wish for pondphuwin to get another series. i missed all of these characters a lot. the MSP episodes were just okay, it was basically a speedrun of the show with a new song + merch drop. didn't hate it, just was boring.

When it came to the ATOTS episodes, which were the ones i was really looking forward to, ignoring BBTS characters made it so much better. I personally found no charm to both stories getting put together like this, so I didn’t really care for the BBTS story at all. it felt like a waste of time having their episodes if they were just going to be flat as they were, time that i think we could've spent giving earthmix the flowers they deserve for acting in one of the best series gmmtv ever made. a positive is that i did like seeing drake and jimmy give us their ghost ship one last hurrah, but that was all for me.

either way, there’s not much in terms of being groundbreaking here if that’s what you’re looking for, it’s all a mess to some degree and a lot of wasted potential for some of the better series from this company. i do have to say that VV and ATOTS were the only ones that genuinely made me tear up. which leads into me harping onto how i hope that we get to see more of earthmix, they've truly become my favorite pairing within the general bl world.

AMAZING! A MUST WATCH

As someone that has watched ALL the orginal dramas watching this was like a dream comee true. Two episodes was too little but also just enough. It was perfect all the couples were perfect. It just made me so happy to watch. Its all happy heartfelt continouations of the orginal stories with a twist. PLEASE WATCH and give the actors love!

My favourite orginal show is THE ECLIPSE BUT I fell in love with Star in your mind from this they were so cute. The crossover in some of the epsidos were amazing as well. I just think that the entire show was well produced and the actors acted amazingly as always. I'm excited for the upcoming drama Only Friends to see a mix of the couples as well. But GMMTV has some amazing actors! Please show love ?

GOOD COMPILATION!

For PalmNeung’s story, I LOVE IT. It is so damn cute and I am always a sucker for fantasy genre. I did not expect that they will have this kind of plot for 2 episodes and makes me have the closure that I never knew I needed. There’s nothing I would change for their part and POND IS GORGEOUS UM HELLO???? I can’t help but to fell for him damn! Can I just say I couldn’t get over Phuwin’s English? It’s damn perfect! I really like him and I love how both character has developed well by years. Feel more mature.

Okay. Im sorry… but what?? 2 episodes for Kluen and Neung be all lovey dovey without proper plot is wasting my time. Like… it is so boring! There is no purpose of the episodes and just a 2 hour long video of them being all lovey dovey which is almost borderline of cringe and I am so disappointed with New’s direction this time. Too plain with no seasoning. Blergh for me.

BRUHHHHHHHHHHH!!! FIRSTKHAO’s EPISODES ARE THE CLOSURE THAT I NEED!!! Miss gurl- LET ME TELL YOU MISS GURL- i really feel like they both are made for each other. They truly care for each other and I feel like the feelings are genuine. Another good 2 hours closure by FirstKhao. Love them so fucking much and I like the conflict of the episodes and shows how different they are yet at the end of the day, they love each other and that’s what more important.

Bye. I don’t think my heart can handle any more JimmySea. OH MY GOD. This is the cutest episode EVA. Like how can the director have such ideas to create such conflict between Puen and Talay? And solve the issue with such beautiful way. I just love how they include quotes at the end of the episode. AND CAN I JUST SAY JIGSAW IS SO CUTE???? Oh my lord. Bro the kid is so cute that I actually could picture them being a family. ? Anyway love the chemistry.

MY OH MY. Multiverse series are really the best isn’t it? WHEN I SAW FOURTH CHANGE ROLE WITH GEMINI, i literally scream. LIKE OH MY GODDDDD!!!!! Very creative plot and I like how they change the character to suit the plot since it is a multiverse plot. Just a little bit to complain, I feel lile Gemini’s acting in these 2 episodes a little bit plain and there is lack of seasoning. Maybe its just me but I still love them tbh! ❤️

UM HELLO??????? WHY DO I FEEL THAT THIS 2 EPISODES MUCH BETTER THAN THE WHOLE SERIES??????? WHAT THE HELL!!! I just love them so much! ❤️ The plot is very well execute and I love the idea that they switch role and HAHAHAHHAHA FORCE IS SO ADORABLE!!! Can we just admit how fine he looks and how good he is playing Gun as cold and stoic? Cher’s character is not as annoying as in the series so I love how the story unfolds by itself. There is no cringe or plain scenes cause everything is so damn funny that I ended up watching without skipping! XD anyway, still a better episodes than the whole series!

BRUH- I HAVE TO STOP MYSELF A FEW TIMES BECAUSE OF THE FEELING TOO MUCH. I SWEAR EARTHMIX IS THE CUTEST- I- UM HELLO???!!!!!! I couldn’t help but to remember why I USED TO BE IN LOVE WITH THEM SO MUCH??!!!!! Like oh god. I like their kiss scenes though HAHAHAHAH. But anyway, can I just say how I love Phu and Tian express their love? It reminds me of old kind of love. Like the way they express each other’s love really got me thinking they could be an old couple that got reincarnated from previous life. My poor heart. Oh my.

OhmNanon on the other hand is okay. The usual them being very playful and very goofy. It’s just that I wish there are more of their plan in attempting to make Phu and Thian made up though. But overall, it was alright.

Unnecessary

The series as a whole was ok. Some of the sections were interesting but none of them were really needed. Don’t get me wrong, I like many of the sections but feel this series was not necessary. However, it’s probably because I don’t understand fanservice and the shipping culture. The positive aspect for me is that most of the sections are not connected together which means you can skip the ones linked to a series that you didn’t watch or didn’t like. My favorite sections were My School President, Vice Versa, and The Eclipse. I was also pleasantly surprise with Never Let Me Go section considering I did not like the main series. I would probably rewatch these at some point in time. The other sections were interesting but just not enough to make me want to watch them again. The negative aspect to me was the crossover episodes involving the couples from Bad Buddy and A Tale of Thousand Stars. I wish they had kept the 2-episode per couple format. I was very disappointed with it because Bad Buddy and A Tale of Thousand Stars are my top favorite BL series.

Random Note:
You can wait to watch this series for when you have nothing else on your must watch list and have some time to kill. Again, the best part is you only have to watch the sections linked to your favorite series. See my reviews for each section of this series if you would like more information.

Why was this called Our Skyy 2 when it’s not an actual sequel. Yes, it’s a “sequel” (sort of) to other BL series but not to Our Skyy. I guess GMMTV was either too lazy or lacked creativity (maybe both) when figuring out a new name for this. At least they didn’t have to waste money creating a new theme song.

Will Update As I Watch More Episodes

This is my try in giving each section of Our Skyy 2 a review. Writing it after each part is done, mostly because my long term memory isn't that good. Ratings for previous part might change as I watch more parts.

1. Never Let Me Go (8.5 star)
I have to say that the transition from a bodyguard/boss story into a fantasy-themed one with reverse reincarnation is shocking! Maybe because they only have 2 episodes or about 100 minutes to make up the rule of the fantasy, give explanations on how it could happens, and not to mention the actual story in the past itself, the overall plot seems to be full of holes to me and lots of questions that left unanswered. But considering this is a special and the fact that I have bias for BL series, I'll just try to enjoy the overall theme and story without thinking much about the plot holes.

I could enjoy the historical theme more, if they explain or give rough descriptions on what time period they were reverse reincarnated to. Love the role reversal where Palm becomes the lord while Nueng is the servant and how the power dynamic is shifted according to their new roles. Love the moments where they talk about their plans for the future and when they have differing opinions, they can talk it out (although I think you would need to talk more than that especially discussing important matters like that). Also loves it that both Palm and Nueng shows they have each their own good and bad quality but they still stick to each other despite of that.

Side couples come as a surprise to me! Even though they only have a few minutes of screentime, apparently I was too invested in their story. I unexpectedly shed some tears when in the current era, Phum (Petch) and Kan (Kla) are boyfriends too. It feels like they got what they deserves, even when they couldn't be together in the past era.

2. Star in My Mind (7.5 star)
I know it will be full of lovey-dovey moments from the trailers and maybe that's why I was surprised when it delivers some really good lines about healthy relationship and trusts. Watch out for the little surprise at the end, they can make you suddenly feel warm and fuzzy inside! Overall, a good mini-series to binge-watch when you need mood booster

Side couples are there, although not as much as in NLMG (and not much interaction either!!!) Happy that Typhoon is implied to be able to move on but still being friends with Dao.
