Another Forgettable Fluff Story Between Commercials

Overall Review:
The trailer of the series might present the series about universe jumping and its consequential complications, and the motivations to travel back to their original universe, but if you take out the different universe aspect out of the story, you still would have 10.5+ hours worth of same content, which is to say that it's not an important aspect of the story. But then you would assume it's more character driven; which again is false as the characters are mostly one dimensional are used way too often to sell things. So this is a series that doesn't deliver what it promises but forces you to watch commercials.

Plot:
- While the trailer and official synopsis promises a multiverse and body jumping plot, it is mostly treated as a side-note rather than the main focus, so much so that one can trim the universe jumping story out and still have 10.5+ hours of video.
- Aside from that main failing, the plot also lacks internal consistency, that is the things canonised to be true at the beginning of the series suddenly become non-canon at the end to further the plot.
- Moreover, all the important events driving the plot happen in the background, so the viewer is left to instead fill-up the plot holes on their own to try to make sense of the development in the plot.
- The plot also jumps time a lot, which again is a task for the viewer to keep tabs on, as this time jump is only displayed through text once, with no significant changes to establish that in the story.
- This plot at best revolves around a love story, but it is not a slow-burn at all, instead the couple-esque moments start pretty early, making it a non-stop cheesy lines & slow-mo moments saga of fluff.

Characters:
- The characters of the Series are pretty uninteresting on their own in terms that they are one-dimensional, their own life, thoughts and motivations are either non-existent or don't matter to their character's actions. Tun (Puen) is obsessed with Talay from the get go, and Talay is hesitant to his advances throughout the series- be it being strangers, friends or in a post-confession relationship.
- Tun (Puen) doesn't want to go back to his universe as he says that he enjoys his new friends and family, while Talay wants to go back as he says that he misses his friends and family; neither of these two motivations/reasons are established in the series as there are zero to none scenes depicting that - Tun cherishing the love from his famliy, and Talay missing his family (we don't even get to see Talay's real family until the end of the series). {Tun (puen) is moreover shown spending all the days mostly with only Talay.}
- Talay as much as he claims desperately wanting to back home, abandons all the work to find his portkey; and is shown as comfortably living in the new universe.
- There is also a second couple that the series starts establishing at the rear end of the of the series and is left unexplored.
- The original Tess and Pakorn are also left unexplored and frozen in time, and their story for these two years in which the main story takes place, is left to a minute of dialogues in 12 hours of the series (about 0.1%).
- The one-dimensionality of the characters is also worsened by the unnatural/unrealsitic actions of the characters.
- Whilst the characters proclaim time and again both directly and indirectly how they aren't attracted to each others bodies (which are also not their own bodies anyway); there are a lot of kisses, sniffing, bath scenes, etc set in slow-mo in romantic music, which signifies the opposite. Tun (puen)'s obsession with Talay, on a similar note, is also not logically explored; {why did he flirt with Talay but not his newfound friends, as all of them are strangers to him. It might not be much of an issue if characters didn't claim that physical attributes aren't important to them in the first place.}


Conclusion:
This series, in essence, is just a wasted potential of a story wrongly marketed with a false cover of universe jumping, when it is just another forgettable fluff-cheesy 'man' and 'woman' stereotyped homosexual couple story.
