Minha Ferramenta e o seu Jaleco (2020)

Uplifting

I have watched a lot of BLs and this is now one of my favorites...shows love comes in different forms. It depicts the way relationships evolve and I think it pulls no punches. It deals with very serious issues which some BLs avoid. I recognize certain actors from other BLs and can see the growth in their acting abilities. Also they don’t sugar coat the problems these couples will face. I don’t like cliffhangers and unresolved endings. This met my criteria for a good bl. I thought the transition from scene to scene was handled well too. The OST is amazing. I have looked at this bl three times and each time I observed how this bl tackled issues in a very respectful manner. I loved how the friends were there for one another during trying times and how they accepted each other, flaws and all. I think this bl has been underrated.

You love it or you hate it

So as many i read the variation on the ratings...you either love it or you hate it.

For me personally i loved it...its was really cute and loving. I love how the relationship builded up between the leads... i loved how the Pai slowly saw his lovin' caring side...
The whole relationship with itt and his dad must have been messed up....this dad ia waaayyyy to disrespectful bringing his mistress to his sick wife!!! And even has the nerve to ask his mistress to be patient...i mean seriously he was just waiting for his wife to die!!! I hate that selfish guy!

Folk and pure were my number 1 favourite in the whole drama...the chemistry that came from those too were just awesome!!

Probably one of my faves now❤️

At first, I wasn't really interested in watching the series. You can say that the trailer didn't compel me enough to watch it. But since this is one of the few BL series in WeTV, I gave it a shot as I've watched everything BL there already. To cut the long story short, I FREAKING LOVE IT. As the story progresses, I was able to feel the struggle of Win's character Pai in dealing with Marc's character Itt. You can say, I was able to relate to Pai as I was in a similar situation before. You know he loves him (Itt) but the latter is just hard to deal with. But come to think of it, it speaks reality. That's just how life is sometimes. What I also like about the series is they're taking it slowly, they're building the momentum per episode not like some series they peak at a certain ep and eventually fall down. As you watch each episode, you'll want more. You'll want Pai to finally get the love he deserves. Fueled by its amazing score, you'll surely get yourself in a sentimental state from time to time. Im truly excited for what comes next. This is probably one of my faves now along with Until We Meet Again, Trapped, He's Coming to Me, DBK, Sotus 2 and Theory of Love ❤️

A little basic with some plot holes

*NO SPOILERS NOW*

STORY: I think the story is super cliché, I personally didn't mind, but the script is pretty lacking, and there's not a good development of the characters and their relationships.
Also, some people point out the slow paced story development, but I wouldn't mind if there was something worth it in it. How can there be so many episodes before they realize they like each other and everything else, but nothing interesting happens in that time? It can take time, but make it worth it. I don't even buy Itt liking Pai..

ACTING: Considering that the script is not the best, the story would have needed really good actors to portray what was poorly written in the script, but tbh the actors are not that good. There were a lot of moments when the camera was focusing on their faces, but the emotions weren't there, it's hard to feel connected to their feelings. Their chemistry was off sometimes too.
The best out of the actors are JJ (Waan) and Fiat (Pure)

I think GGMTV is putting less and less effort everytime. Little budget, rookie actors who are obviously handsome (Idk what's the point, to pay them little money?) and cliché stories that could be written by anyone , even the locations are always the same.



*WITH SPOILERS NOW*

STORY: It's ridiculous how 90% of the problems in the show could have been solved by just talking and communicating. I know people irl are a little like that too, but seriously? I still don't get how Itt stays by Pai's side by helping and taking care of him in the dark but is not capable of talking to him face to face to clarify he's not angry at him nor does he hate him. What's the point? I don't even talk about saying he likes him, but why would you just act like and asshole to him (even tho he has good intentions), but not explain absolutely anything ¿?

Another point is that we can't see when and how Itt starts liking Pai. The acting is more obvious on Pai's case, but Itt? Not his dialogues, nor his face or eyes say a thing. Then he acts all angry when he finds out about the classroom, doesn't talk to him for months, and then suddenly appears, helps him and likes him? "he was never angry" says waan, then what was that all about? And why didn't he say something?

It's good, and I recommend watching it

This is my first review, and I don't really know how to start, but My Gear An Your Gown is one of my favorite BLs this year. The story is not boring, and even though we've seen the Engineering concept TOO MANY TIMES, this one feels different in a way. I liked how the story progressed from High School to University, and how each character had a good development. This is one of the few times in which GMMTV gave their side couple enough screentime, and also a good storyline. Folk and Pure were my favorite part talking about their relationship, and also acting. Itt and Pai, weren't bad either, and I liked how their relationship turned out to be, they cared for each other, and that's something we can notice very well. This is a really sweet bl, with really cute scenes, and a story that will not let you down for sure. It talks about important issues that are not often talked about in other shows like sexual safety, or parents pressuring their children. I definitely recommend you to watch it at least once in your life!

Would Recommend! Great cast with amazing chemistry

I noticed this series was getting a lot of hate throughout airing and I'm not sure why. Personally I loved this series, I see lots of comments going around that its too slow and I can see how that may come across but I'd still have to disagree, I love the how this series was sort of a slow burn, it may seem slow because a lot of the series is a flashback before they come to present times but I think that added to the charm of the series. I loved seeing how the characters met each other and how they all have a history with each other, that added a lot of depth to the characters and their relationships for me.

I started the series because of the scenes I had seen beforehand of PureFolk and even though they are a side couple who weren't introduced till towards the end of the series, for me they stole the show! The chemistry between Fiat and Aun was amazing, they work so well together and I hope they get another series together.

I do agree the beginning was a little rough and awkward, but they were Highschoolers and I think that just made their characters more authentic, as the show went on and the timeline came to them being in university it almost was perfect because it gave the actors time to become more comfortable in their roles and you could really see their character development through that.

Overall, I would recommend this series and I will probably be rewatching it again in the future, the plot was kind of a typical BL plot (but they're popular for a reason), the casting was phenomenal, and the chemistry between the actors had me blushing when their characters would interact. I hope they get a second season so we can see more of everyone being happy and together in their couples, but if not they ended the series quite perfectly in my opinion!

It is an okay show but its worth watching for Pure's story

The show was okay but only reason I really stayed was for Pure and his story. I liked how when it came to Pure, the directors address the importance of practicing safe s3x, which I feel tends to be neglected in BLs. The actor perfectly portrays the fear one may experience at the thought that they may be positive to an STD. I also liked the way Wan and Pure's friendship is so genuine and how they truly are there for one another, even when one tends to want to deal with things alone. Pure's story with his family is a little sad but I feel it managed to portray how Pure coped (i.e. through several one-night stands and not really caring about the other person's feelings). I feel like Pure's character needs A LOT MORE SCREEN TIME and the story should have focused more on him and Folk.
The main couple was cute but the lack of communication and Pai simply being pushed around..... I just did not like this couple as much.

CUTE CHEMISTRY

First of all, the story is a typical rival turn to lovers bl series but the characters manage to pull it up because of the cute chemistry of the main actors. Itt and Pai couple is super duper cute, specially their speaking voice hahaha I fell in love with it.

Second, the other supporting characters add flavours to the show and make it more fun and interesting to watch.

Third, I also love how they portray each characters.

I guess the only shortcomings in this show is the fact that the story was divided into two parts; the high school days and the college days which revolves into the same story of the main couple without a character development and it was derived in a long period of time which consume almost half of the total number of episodes in the series. Plus, the ending is not an impactful finale unlike any other drama, I was expecting for more.

But overall, the series is entertaining to watch and I didn't get bored even though it is another cliche drama. Good job to the cast, staff, and all of the people behind it.

This show was a typical BL but don't let it get your hopes down.

To be honest I didn't have very high expectations for this series but I would say it well passed them. The setting is of course one that we all know. The infamous university setting with our favorite engineers and doctors. Now this is why I say not to let it get your hopes down. A lot of people have given this bad ratings but I'm telling you it's worth your time. The show just gives me a very comfortable feeling. I personally think Marc and Win fit the roles of Itt and Pai perfectly. Win the shy boy and Marc the cool athlete. It highlights how it can be hard to show your true feelings to the person you like and how sometimes you put a mask on and try to hide it. Of course it was GMMTV so they had to add unnecessary drama but it was kind of funny. The setting was just like yout typical Thai BL series but the storyline is more than just that. They bring up very important topics such as safe sex and themes of confidence. Each character worked to become more confident throughout the series and it was really lovely to watch. I would say this was one of the best series I've ever watched and highly, HIGHLY, recommend!

This is what happens when the side characters and the couple are more interesting than the leads.

Itt and Pai just acted like children, when whatever misunderstanding was going on, could have been solved with one conversation (which was also proven later in the series). Like, why is a university student acting like an elementary school kid bullying his crush? Their plotline was simply not interesting, especially if we compare it with Pure and Folk.

This could have been better if either we got Pure and Folk as main characters, or if they didn't give such an interesting backstory for Pure. But what we've got was a simple main plot that felt like filler, and a complex underdeveloped side story, which felt rushed because of the lack of screen time. I truly believe there was something interesting going on with Pure. It could easily be a series with the premise of "your past mistakes don't define who you are right now, as long as you learn from them". There was some depth in his character that could have been explored more.

One thing I for sure liked is the clear message about safe sex. I truly appreciated all the "sex talks" we've got and that the characters actually went to the hospital when they thought there might be a problem. This should not be a taboo and I loved how straightforward they were about it.

The acting was... meh? Again, I was not convinced by the main couple. At some point I was sitting in front of my laptop watching an episode and said "wow... They are about to kiss. They hadn’t kissed before... had they?". I literally did not remember a kissing scene in a romance driven show, which tells me I was not convinced by whatever was happening on the screen.

Truth to be told, I dropped the show, but after some time I saw a few screenshots of Pure and Folk and picked it up again for them. Do I regret it? Not really. Do I think I would miss something if I didn't watch it? Nope. Do with that information whatever you want :)
