A film experiment
The whole thing seemed like the director was experimenting with different genres which resulted in one of the most confusing shows I have seen in my life.It wants to be scary but it fails, dramatic but it fails, funny but it fails.
The development of the characters it's halfway, you don't really get to know any character and it seem like the writer just threw in ideas but never got to develop anything.
The acting is the only decent thing in this show, which is good on them considering the half way un clear story they were performing.
It just seems like a wasted oportunity

Weirdly enjoyable mess
Captivated, by You is a misleading title coupled with that poster gives you all the feels of a BL. Nothing of the sort. Actually it is very difficult to pinpoint the exact genre. Why? Well, let's see....The drama follows two high school boys, in two different towns, in two different schools, with different experiences and interests. They have absolutely nothing in common save for a moment their literal paths crossed and one boy took a photo of the other one being bizarre on the other side of the road. And they are both cute. That's it!
When you say school drama, the first item on the producers' list is bullying. So there is some of that of course! The boys' reactions to it are different; while one is immune to it and does not pay attention, the other one creates a repulsive and scary character in order not to be bothered again.
The drama has a strange structure: it keeps jumping back and forth between the characters and up and down the timeline so pay attention while watching. Everything is strange about this drama: the weird book they keep quoting (does it really exist?), side characters' stories out of nowhere when even the main characters' have not been developed correctly and of course the total absence of adults! That is often the case in school dramas and I find it fascinating; the kids are left alone to fend for themselves.
At the end of episode three, there is an amazing trailer for a fake horror movie only japanese can make and looking mighty real and convincing! I almost looked the advertised "movie" up!
And despite all this strangeness, it was a great little drama, leaving you wanting for more! The characters were likable, the actors excellent, the music was really good and the overall production was high value. And I want more!

Un po' troppo confusionario.
Pensavo di vedere una cosa divertente giusto per passare il tempo ma sinceramente ho continuato a chiedermi che sto guardando perché per me c'è stata una confusione e alla fine non mi è piaciuto più di tanto questo drama.Non ci ho capito tanto ma forse è un mio problema comunque molto confusionario.Non é stato brutto ma non mi ha entusiasmato e sono stata contenta che sono state così poche puntate altrimenti forse sarebbe stato il primo drama che droppavo.Personaggi di per se carini e come storie diverse e pure dei bellissimi attori.
Comunque non sarà un drama da ricordare almeno per me.

ซีรีย์มิตรภาพและการเติบโต
Muchuu-sa, Kimi ni / Captivated By You (หมดหัวใจให้นายคนเดียว)ซีรีย์แนวมิตรภาพ เพื่อนและการเติบโตในสังคมวัยรุ่นที่มาพร้อมกับบาดแผลในอดีต นำแสดงโดย โอนิชิ ริวเซย์ (วง Naniwa Danshi), ทากาฮาชิ ฟูมิยะ (คาเมนไรเดอร์ซีโร่วัน / Kimi no Hana ni Naru วง 8LOOM), ฟูกุโมโตะ ริโกะ (ยางลบสื่อรัก / คืนฝันก่อนฉันลืมเธอ) และ บันโดะ เรียวตะ (Honey Lemon Soda)
ด้านเนื้อเรื่อง โอเค ค่อนข้างงง ว่าไม่ได้ 555 ถ้าคนมีความรู้เกี่ยวกับนิยายญี่ปุ่นหรือพวกวรรณกรรมญี่ปุ่นคือจะไม่มีปัญหาเลย แต่ด้วยความที่เราเป็นพวกชอบเปรียบเปรยก็พอเข้าใจอยู่บ้าง ในแต่ละตอนจะพูดถึงตัวละครหลัก 2 ตัวก็คือ ฮายาชิ กับ นิไคโด ทั้งสองคนมีจุดยืนที่ต่างกัน คนหนึ่งพยายามดึงดูดผู้คนเข้ามาและอีกคนพยายามผลักคนอื่นออกและสร้างกำแพงใหญ่กั้นไว้ แน่นอนว่าทั้งคู่มีเหตุผลของตัวเอง
เราชอบสตอรี่ของนิไคโดมาก ดูแล้วมันตราตรึงใจ ในขณะที่สตอรี่ของฮายาชิดูจืดๆ หรือว่าเราชอบอะไรที่มันซับซ้อนนะ 555 แต่ใดๆ ริวเจกับฟูมิยะแสดงดีจริงๆ จนคิดว่าริวเจเล่นตัวเองในเรื่องรึเปล่า ปกติก็เป็นแบบนี้อยู่แล้ว (โดนตบ) ฟูมิยะเองคือเก่งมากเก่งแบบตอนแรกมองไม่ออกเลยว่านี่คือฟุมิยะที่เรารู้จักกัน 555 ริโกะเราก็มองไม่ออกว่าเป็นริโกะสุดสวยที่เราชอบจนมาดูชื่อแคสก็คือจ๋อง งงมาก
ด้านเพลงเปิดก็คือติดหูจัดๆ แนว J-rock ที่เราชอบกันมาตั้งแต่สมัยเด็กๆ เพลง Hello Halo ของ broken my toy box เราแอบแปลไว้เล่นๆ พอเข้าใจคือแปลมาจากภาษาอังกฤษอีกที ฮือๆ https://youtube.com/watch?v=rw5FO2NG7KI
แนะนำให้คนที่ไม่มีอะไรดูแล้วอยากหาแนว come of age แนวโรงเรียน มิตรภาพ แนะนำเรื่องนี้ไปเป็นเรื่องรีเฟรชสมอง รับรองดูเสร็จพลังการอยากดูเรื่องอื่นมาแน่นอนค่ะ!

"The world is complicated and ambiguous. In this world, we mix and connect."
Have you ever looked at a Wimmelbilderbuch? These are books for children, where every page depicts a scene -- a market, a school, a street, a park -- with lots of people. You look at each person and discover a bit about them. Then you turn the page, and there's a new scene. Sometimes you'll meet some of the same people, and can continue their stories. Sometimes, there are new people. On some of these pages, the little people meet (or miss each other by seconds), which changes their course for the next pages. At the end, you close the book, but the stories about the people will never be finished.This show is much like that. We get to see episodes of the lives of several teenagers, glimpse into the wide universe of their thoughts and emotions, turn the page -- and someting new might happen. That something new is more often than not hilariously surreal in this show, but -- like in other Japanese Dramas -- deeper than it seems at first glance.
Release all your preconceptions about how dramas are supposed to work, and look closely.
Look at another person, really look beyond what's immediately visible; listen to them, and you may find that you are Captivated, by them.
"Even so, you'd throw yourself into the world, in secret, with all your might, in an ambiguous form, in a complicated straight line."

Who was the main cast?
What was the plot?
What was the genre?
What was the POINT?
There is zero answers to any of those questions. I feel like the writer put all these ideas into a blender, threw it against the wall and saw what stuck going "eh, this will work"
This is in no way saying the acting was awful by the way, if anything, the acting by everyone was great. It's not their fault they were handed a shitty story. But I really and honestly do not understand. Right off the bat I was confused and felt like I had missed important information THAT WAS NEVER GIVEN!! There was never a "set" main lead(s), they just kept bringing in new characters with every episode and I felt nothing for the characters. We are given little to no information about any of these characters. It's like the whole thing was scrambled.
I know there are a few episodes that make it loop around like some freaking Pulp Fiction crap but even then you're left going "What the fuck?" I hate not knowing things. Like what was the significance of the book mentioned? Also, why bother bringing up Junji and his manga like it played a huge part, when in reality, it DIDN'T!! Just because one of the characters looked like a Junji character? That's not how that works and I honestly don't see it. He wanted to be all scary so people would leave him alone and even then that makes no sense since he was the terrified one. I get what happened to him, I do. But his story makes no sense to me. And neither does the guy that goes around taking pictures of signs. See, I remember no ones names. None. and that's sad. I barely remember what half of them look like. What was the point of introducing a female to sign boy? What was the point of deep voice guy thinking sign boy was cute, but, "not in that way. The panda was cute"
This show was a mess and now my brain is a mess.
There literally was no plot to this at all. Even with each episode there wasn't a single plot or meaning to them and the ending was just as ridiculous as the whole show. I really had hoped that they would explain SOMETHING. ANYTHING. But nope. It ended like best friends parting ways after knowing each other for years.... meanwhile I'm screaming at the screen "WHO ARE YOU PEOPLE?!?!" Ugh. Yeah.... I hated this show. Sorry....
