just what I needed.

I cannot put into words how exactly I felt during this series. It's like someone had known all the things I would love to watch and put them in one drama. Firstly, I was already a big fan of Ohm and Nanon, their work always pleased me and I even rewatched their projects a few times. On December 3rd of 2020, when Bad Buddy was announced, I absolutely freaked out, not only because of the super fun plot, but also because some of my favorite actors would be participating on that show. I didn't even watch the trailer a second time, because I wanted to forget about the scenes so I could watch the show without already expecting something to happen.

There were hard times, Nanon got covid, the filming was postponed, as well as the airing date. A lot of things were going wrong, but I never stopped believing Bad Buddy was going to be IT. Everytime I remembered it was going to be a real series with dear actors, I would put on a big smile and search for updates. When GMMTV announced they would come to life on October, I got so happy. When I watched the first episode, I got even happier. It's not a joke, their chemistry is sooo good. The scenes were funny and goofy as I was expecting from a gmm BL series. The dialogues I'd been waiting for, the bickering I'd been waiting for, the LOVE STORY I'd been waiting for. Everything on that show had me insane!

About the main leads, Ohm and Nanon are such great actors, I've got nothing to complain about that. Ohm is amazing with emotional, clingy and goofy scenes, Pat was the perfect role for him as he resembles the other so much. Nanon is just the best at expressing trivial feelings, his precise delivery got me thrilled, because his past recent roles were full of angst and serious faces. Now, even though there were angsty parts, he was able to portray a lighter character, who frequently smiles and laughs. Their gaze, their sparks, their touching, every little detail was what made my heart so fulfilled. Not to mention their improvised scenes, it was such a good addition! I would go on about them for hours, but I don't want my review to be THAT long. Well, I love Pat and Pran very much!

The side characters had their function on the show of course. Although I don't like Wai, only we (the viewers) know what he did to PatPran. He wasn't punished so I just stopped caring about him honestly. Korn has his flaws but at least he was a great friend to Pat when everything seemed to be falling apart. Now, the stars on this path of side characters: INK AND PA! I would never imagine that Aof would create a storyline for two girls falling in love omg I absolutely LOVED it. That scene in the park when Ink offered to take photos of Pa just to fool around was the first sign, I was already thinking "Hm, WHAT IF these two become a couple..." but I didn't know they would seriously make this happen, and I am so happy that they did. Even with just a few scenes, nothing was rushed and implicit, they got their moment and even more than I expected. Kisses for InkPa my beloved!

About the main plot, I got really happy that they weren't apart because of their parents. When we all found out they pretended to break up, I let out the biggest sigh of relief and started laughing SO hard I love them... Aof did a brilliant job changing the climax (because in the novel Pran is transfered to live abroad because her mom sent him). Pran was indeed away, but because he Chose to. He saw a job opportunity that seemed interesting and had an agreement with Pat that they would still be together. Just the best couple of all time... On an extra note, I was already a fan of Tilly Birds but now when I listen to them I sometimes think of PatPran, it's always a beautiful moment.

Final thoughts: this show added a big amount of happiness and love inside my heart. I am really proud to say I was here since the beggining of this beautiful journey (and even before, since I watch everything Ohm and Nanon do). It brought recognition, and a lot of LGBTs felt comforted while watching it. ALL my "thank yous" to the cast and crew, they were phenomenal. I'm going to miss them a lot, and I will surely rewatch it with my friends when I recommend it to them :D It's now one of my favorite BL series.

first one!

I just wanted to write a review, so don't mind the scores yet. I have been waiting for KinnPorsche to air, and it's finally out. The first episode is so good and already told us a lot about Porsche's personality, a bit more than Kinn's for now since Porsche is the central protagonist. I also liked the changes the directors made, it suited the story well. The fight scenes were amazing, the cinematography is beautiful and the main leads are doing a great job (not to mention the budget ?? shocked). I read most part of the novel and I'm looking forward to the amazing chemistry I know they will deliver throughout the series. I have been following the cast's social medias since the beginning, so I already know some of the actors' skills. It was worth the wait, I can see they worked a lot for this. Sending my support for the cast and crew, I hope we all have fun with the rest of the episodes!

edit: I was hoping they would cut AT LEAST the s.a scene between Kinn and Porsche, because, honestly, it's pointless when you realize the dynamic they deliver has so much potential to be something light compared to other pairings in the show. However, I'll salve this take of mine for my review regarding the entire show!

edit 2: I finished the series but i don't have even one bit of energy to write my thoughts... Just know that I don't like plots with sexual assault between a potential couple, kinda ruined it for me. However, it's clear that Kinn and Porsche care for each other very much, so I admit I find them really cute in general. I'm all for Porsche and Porchay's happiness!! Kisses for Tankhun as well, lovely guy <3

Just because it's cliché, it doesn't mean it's not good! Sometimes all we want is some simple and cute story about teenagers discovering love. And i missed Yin and War, I'm glad they did something different from Love Mechanics. Just took 1.5 point away for those homophobic bitches though lol they ruined the ending I got SO pissed. We could've had such a sweet ending with Best confessing and Dew confessing back to him, but that BITCH named FERN decided to mess up her so-called best friend's life. And his mom is the worst as well. In my head Dew came out to his dad later and he said "son, love who you wanna love. go to him NOW" and then we'd get those cliché scenes of them meeting again and finally getting together pleeeease that would be amazing! Let's just imagine together, shall we? Although it was not the ending I truly wanted, I was easily able to enjoy this series. Good job but please let us get a sweet ending next time!

PS.: ray and dave were so cute looking at each other in the show's scene! I wish I could've seen more of them together besides ray slightly mentioning dave, but i get it was a short series. Anyways I'm gonna imagine a spin off for them because I was invested.

they served in many aspects!

I really think that this series was good, I enjoyed watching most part of it :) the only thing I can remember right now that I didn't like at all was the banalization of sexual assault in the script. The jokes Ming did about Wayo possibly getting abused are not funny, and the writers should be aware of it because it is really insensitive, especially towards abuse victims. Despite this negative point, I loved the show! the couples have healthy storylines, and a pretty natural development. I should highlight here Pavel Phoom's acting skills, it was his first role (as well as the other 5 main actors'), but he did an AMAZING job. His acting was so natural that I couldn't even tell that was just a character. He portrayed passion, confidence, anger, sadness and insecurity really well. In my opinion, he was the best actor, and I hope I get to see him getting more roles eventually, since 2moons3 apparently won't happen anymore :(

Kisses for Lee Thanat

I liked the series, Lee Thanat is hot! Boom is my favorite character, not only because she's interesting, but also because she really stands up for herself and I felt horrible for all the slutshaming she had to endure from those creepy guys throughout the WHOLE season. I mean, does the author hate her??? The poor woman couldn't have 1 minute of peace without getting verbally harrassed by some random dude. At least she always defended herself and didn't let them opress her. Am is also a character I really like. She suffered a lot as well, being deceived by her boyfriend, having to give her mother money, getting suddenly pregnant and being in a dilemma about getting an abortion or not. I would support any decision she made, and it's cute that she chose to keep the child. I hope the baby grows loved by her, since she is a lovely person who deserves the best. About the central protagonist, Boyo, I don't really have much to say. I relate to some of her feelings, but I really thought she was a bad friend to Boom several times. Calling her a slut unprovokedly and thinking Boom was a prostitute, like NOT IRONICALLY, shows a lot about her impression of her so-called best friend. Besides that, I think she and Good have potential, even though they are an emotional mess. Good is hot and that's all he needs!

About the love triangle with Stud, Sam and Earth: Stud is indeed a needy person and couldn't stand coexisting with a happy but broken couple, so he took the opportunity to try to feel something since he was already attracted to Sam, and Sam unfortunately was weak and an asshole by cheating on Earth. I know long relationships aren't always easy, because couples sometimes fade out as years go by, but come on, Earth tried his best to hold onto this, and Sam was already annoyed by the whole situation, so it was no surprise that he felt tempted to hook up with Stud, a new and attractive person in his life who didn't need his attention all the time. Both of them are wrong, and Earth had the right to feel upset, but obviously I wouldn't act like he did, trying to get revenge or something. It just makes him seem childish, when he should be classy to show them he is superior. I don't like Singto but his acting is never something I complain about. The actors made this work pretty well.

Now, one thought I should emphasize here is: not every drama needs to end with the couples getting back together. Tor and Bern are complete assholes who evolved magically??? One was completely rude all the time with his girlfriend and never defended her. The other literally stole money from his girlfriend's bank account (that she shared with him but still) to pay debts he knew he wouldn't be able to pay back soon pleeease! To be honest, I kinda thought Boom and Bern were cute, but I still didn't like him in a relationship. At least he was better than Tor, this one has so much to learn... The ending was really rushed, suddenly all of them got back together and I didn't like that. Earth still loves Sam but in his place I wouldn't get back with him, like... it's so "corno manso" of him. Well, if he thinks it's the right decision, who am I to judge, right? The only couple I wouldn't complain about is Good and Boyo because all they did this season was sleeping together a couple of times and looking at each other, and as I said before, they have potential.

Obs.: "Corno" is a term for someone who was cheated on. And "manso" means calm, so "corno manso" is a brazilian term to make fun of people who get cheated on 1 or several times but still wants to be in a relationship with the cheater.

To conclude, it's a likeable series that I had fun watching, the stories were captivating and I always wanted to know what was going to happen next. I hope Friend Zone 2 is as good or even better, because I'm starting to watch it in a few days! And then let's see how these creatures are doing.

Burn all Mame's novels, I beg you

First off, I would like to say I really enjoyed watching the first episodes. The couple was portraying pretty cute scenes, the plot was okay, and it seemed too good to be a work from Mame. But then the problems started to appear. All that blackmailing stuff and King forcing Fiat to sleep with him (sexual assault again, hello???). They barely focused on how Fiat was feeling, it's like Mame had thought "since Fiat used to sleep with a lot of guys, he wouldn't mind being forced to sleep with another one!". Then, the final episode with Leo basically describing an abusive behavior while telling Fiat he would keep him only for himself, although he was doing so well on the first half of the series :/ Fiat seemed to be into it but like... baby that's not the standards you should be going for in a man!!! I just think they ruined the main couple for me. I liked them a lot before, specially Fiat (felt so bad for all that slutshaming), but idk I hate these tropes so I didn't want to say I absolutely ship them nowadays.

Regarding the second couple, I don't really have complaints, seriously! I know some people said it was a little bit boring or they didn't like the dynamic, but actually I loved them together. I know their start was a total cliché and we needed more scenes to know if we were going to get a worthy good couple. However, their development proved we could enjoy some cheesy scenarios and conversations without hating it. I personally liked a lot how Pob started to show his cuteness and calm - but happy to be there - face to Leon more often. All their scenes in Pob's room were the sweetest. Shout out to two scenes: the first one, where they're having dinner and Pob tells Leon his childhood story, mentioning his loving father. Leon seemed so invested and caring about it, and him saying reassuring words to Pob and ending the scene with a kiss and a hug was the death of me! I got really emotional throughout this whole sequence, and although the acting is not perfect, they gave me the emotion I needed. The second scene (kind of a sequence too) is where Leon surprises Pob with cat plushies, and is comforting him after Pobjer's death, mentioning Pob's father to compare to Pobjer being Pob and him crossed. It means he really payed attention to everything Pob had said about his father and I really found it so cute. It's a shame they didn't end up oficcially together, but at least they didn't end the series hating each other, and they dated for some sort of time, we could enjoy while it lasted!

In conclusion, kisses for LeonPob, therapy for LeoFiat, and prison for Mame <3

if it wasn't this...

I just think they shouldn't have made ohm and first kiss each other because since we know their characters are siblings, it's VISUALLY creepy. they should've done what they did for all the other episodes, which was replacing kim's body for pan's, to represent that PAN is there. so prigkhing should have done the kissing scene, that way it would be WAY less weird. they did that scene just because immoral BL fans would love it, but it was unnecessary and explicit incest, externally at least. Also, I really hoped Kim would end up alive. Way deserved so much better, and I was really sad that he ended up alone. I wish it had a different ending, and I wish they deleted the kissing scene, just that.
