not as good as it could've been

PRODUCTION:
everything looked very nice - there are are a lot of school bls right now but i liked the aesthetic and overall look of this one. the music i didnt really take not of but at least it wasnt annoying. sound quality can be pretty bad based on where they are filming.

WRITING / STORY:
i never thought i would say that a thai bl would be too short but here we are. maybe they couldve done it in 12 episodes but the intrigue built up all really stops flat. i was hoping for this series to be more suspensful than it was. there are a lot of story beats that shouldve take more care and execution. i really wish the story would just slow down because it just brushes by so fast with no real time for development. i find myself more liking the concept and ideas the story present rather than how it actually played out. plus there's plots and characters who are focused on that just slow it down even more esp near the end.

CHARACTERS / ACTING:

akk has a story arc that i really like but i do feel like its rushed. some of the developments just sort of come out of nowhere. i feel like first (akk's actor) really does his best but because he does really well. i didnt really think i would like akk as a character but i found myself truly relating to his experiences. but some stuff just really doesnt get explained enough. i think we needed more context for his actions.

ayan wowed me in his first appearance but his character kinda took a turn for the worst. i really just didnt understand his motivations. he is a really smart character but sometimes just doesnt reveal anything he does know. i thought - unlike some reviews i saw - that his motivations were good. but the fact that the story spun the actual conclusion makes it seem like he did a lot of this for nothing.

i liked their chemistry together but the buildup isnt really there. like i truly dont know when it is that they actually started to like each other. its like one scene they hate each other but then the next they are already getting comfortable. i also just needed akk to be more hesitant but it more seems like his character flip flops on if he likes aye or not. like again their acting is great and they clearly have a connection but it happens way too fast and doesnt have enough development. i cant wait to watch them in their next serieses (Only Friends and Moonlight Chicken) and hopefully they will get better stories there.

thua... god. idk. his motivations are just so weak. his actions are just confusing. i was okay with him and thought his romance with kan was good until stuff gets revealed. which. just changes his whole character out of nowhere. i feel like the writers just were trying to blindside us without giving any real development so none of us would actually guess it. in the end i cant even feel happy for his character.

the other side characters are ok at best. but man. they needed to pick a bad guy and stick with it. too many people ended up getting their motivations explained and facing 0 consequences. it really just left it so everything that was suspensful just wasnt anymore.

OVERALL:
i know it seems like im dragging this show a lot i do wanna say i had a funtime with it. its something i could see myself casually rewatching but if i think too much about it the more frustrated i am with the story.
