Too hot for the Rain
Edit April 26, 2023. For some reason I can't watch Sky and Prapai. So this 9.5/10 review is only the first half of the series.September 30, 2022
Review for: Payu and Rain arc
Oh my god! Love In The Air: Payu and Rain is the bitch. They ran and pushed forth as one of my favourite bls for this year. I was originally going to wait until Nov to watch this series in a binge way. But one of my friends said that the first main couple's story was done now. So I decided to watch it right away. To be frank, I only started watching this show yesterday and I finished Payu and Rain's plot already, which were episodes 1-7. The reason I put the 9 on the story segment is because I feel like yea there are parts that don't make sense especially in episode 7. If you know, you know ahahah. Anyway, that part didn’t really bother me too much, I kinda skip my way away from what happened. So yes, in a way I kinda did shut off my brain regarding certain part of the plot. I guess the reason why some of the plot holes didn't bother me too much is because of how great the actors are in this series. If I am being honest, if the casts were only giving 'mid' tier or poor acting, I would have probably dropped this series just purely based on the plot. BUT since the casts carried the show and I just want to say how excellent the chemistry is between Payu and Rain.
In terms of their relationship, this might be one of Mame's least toxic unhealthy legal-friendly relationship that she has written. To be honest, I tend to avoid any dramas that she is involved just because of how unhealthy and how uncomfortable I felt in her other dramas I gave a shot. In which, I ultimately dropped. I don't know I just can't tolerate cheating and really pushy behaviours. However, for this one, Mame did a pretty good job in keeping Payu&Rain's relationship healthier.
I am so excited for Sky's arc to unfold so I will be back on Nov-ish... unless I get busy with other things. Anyways, until then soldiers!

I really like it! ...until episode 7
I only watched the first 7 episodes because I was warned off of the rest of the series for some pretty serious reasons. The beginning of this couple's romance was sus as hell on both sides, but I feel they eventually met in the middle in a gay parlay. I will NOT be watching the entirety of this series, so it is complete to me. (which is why the highest I feel I can score is a 7. it would be higher as a consensual red flag romance if these first 7 episodes were standalone.)Was this review helpful to you?

In my opinion one of the worst bl I have seen
In my opinion this is one of the worst bl I have ever seen...The story is very bad and the acting is not very good, expect when they make love😭
The story and acting made my head boil because I cant stand childish adults who acts like they are lil kids who complains about everything and acts stupid.
I see Rain like one of those adults..
I like the main couple's chemistry if there is even any other couples!
But still I think Rain acts like little child who cant do anything without his lover...
I have seen so much better series so this didn't hit me °3°
I think lita is one of those series that you love OR hate

Everyone should give it a chance and decide for themselves!! Great Chemistry!
Considering it is a MAME story, there are obvious elements that many do not agree with and some parts that you may feel uncomfortable. It is honestly better than most MAME novels. Some may say its harassment and that Payu was too pushy and invading... Some may disagree saying that Rain is equally attracted to Phayu and that Phayu never crossed the line ultimately....he teased the hell out of him though. I believe it should be upto the viewer to decide and that everyone should give this series a try to decide whether they will enjoy it or not. Choosing to go by reviews won't really do justice. I also believe not watching the series will not do justice to the second main couple whose story will not begin until ep 7 or 8. Sky/Prapai story also seems so fun and enjoyable with more emotional depth than Rain/payu story which is more lighthearted and on the fun side.But even when arguments fly one thing is for sure that the cast did a great job portraying their roles and the chemistry between the Boss and Noeul is fire!! Even if there are elements that can spark heated arguments in the first 2 episodes, ep 3 was honestly so soft and sweet.
Watching the episodes felt like time was flying by way too fast. It has got me hooked and is strangely addictive!!

Here Mame Go Again
Whenever a series has the name Mame next to it, i should honestly expect what's going to happen. I've never seen someone be so obsessed with gay people being nonconsensual with each other that every book they write has to contain those scenes constantly. Why does she keep getting adaptations when she's just setting the community back decades?Two episodes in and I can bet the whole series is just Rain saying he doesn't wanna have sex with Payu and Payu forcing him to do it anyway and then boom relationship at the end, its every Mame series that woman has problems. Stop adapting her horrible books!

A Great Show With Perfect Chemistry
I absolutely love this show. Both couples have great storylines and chemistry and I couldn't stop watching. The series holds up to rewatches very well and I just have so much fun when watching this show. Before watching this show, people should know that there are some potentially upsetting topics both shown and talked about which aren't handled perfectly by the show. I feel that people should be aware of this before watching especially if they might find it difficult to watch. Other than that I have no criticism.Was this review helpful to you?

It was fun to watch, loved bossnoeul part the most
I really liked the first couple chemistry and I feel like it wasn't the best idea to separate the 2 stories, because you'll inevitably compare the 2. And if you really liked the first couple, having them almost completely disappear, it can be hard to stay interested in the second storyline. And even tho the second couple was quite decent, in comparison to the first one it was a bit disappointing. They all did a great job considering they aren't veteran actors, but acting and chemistry wise boosnoeul were largely on top. It's too bad cause at first I really liked this series, even with some scene with really bad production and the problematic part of it ( I admit all my favorites series are a bit problematic, because I like the realistic side of it, love can be problematic and it's a reality for me, no relationship is perfect and flawless) but in the end it was hard to keep my interest up. It was still enjoyable, especially payurain arc.Was this review helpful to you?
Amazing series if you are young enough
I usually read the reviews before starting a drama...and so I did for this series and tbh sometimes yall reviwers are a bit too harsh...LIKE NO TRY TO ENJOY AT TIMES RATHER THAN JUST COMPLAINING
If you want something not too intense yet captivating this drama is for you
More or less all dramas have some faults...and LITA is no exception
it contains SA,toxic ex so..if you are not comfortable I'd simply ask you to AVOID
You'll probably like this series if You are Young enough....by young I mean if you like teenagish stories or wattpad kinda things
HOWEVER ITS A LEGITIMATE 18+ SERIES
you'll see lot of spicy scenes..which were definately not unecessary as some may suggest
I did found them concerning at times but deserve a solid 8/10

Love in all of our hearts
I cannot say enough good things about this series! As soon as I finished it, I wanted to watch it again! The spicy scenes were the best I’ve ever seen by a long shot (I recommend wearing headphones). The chemistry between all the actors is out of this world! I loved everything about this series. The way they handled Sky's trauma was done beautifully as well! I think everyone has heard of or seen this show by now and there's a reason why! One of my top 3 BL's I've seen to date!Was this review helpful to you?
Just awesome. highly recommend
one of the best bl's I would recommend for a newbie. worth watching. I love the actors. they're just perfect. no one could do better. The couples have made it so good and funny. I'm in love with BossNoeul and FortPeat. the way Peat acts feels like you're really in this plot and it's so real. like whenever Sky cries I feel like I would burst into tears. it feels so real. and the BossNoeul scene where 'Payu smacks 'rain's butt, OMFG, I was rolling on the floor. it's so good. I recommend it fow newbies to bl.Was this review helpful to you?

Speechless ♥️♥️♥️
Sweet and Romantic, Thrilling and Captivating.It started strong and stayed like that. I just can't get over them.
The first part the story of Payu and Rain is just so sweet. The fact that Payu fell for him from the very first moment but played cool and made Rain fall in love with him it was unexpected in a way but cute. The "I will wait until you are ready" just made me love the show even more. The consent is an important part of this show and the way Payu wanted to make Rain a responsabil person and make him grow as a man is just so sweet. The intimate scenes... well the sounds they make are just exquisite in the kissing scenes you can see the passion and love they have for the other.
I liked that in a way Payu/Rain story was a little less tragic than Pai/Sky.
I really could feel through the whole drama that they have great chemistry and they are smoking hot.
It's a cliche the bad boy falls for the good and innocent boy but it was well delivered and i really enjoyed the show.
Saw some comments where it was disliked the fact that the drama was separated into 2 parts almost first part Payu and Rain second part Prapai and Sky. I didn't find it as a problem in a way it was better for me cuz i could focus on both stories equally.
The second part Prapai and Sky is just as beautiful i just can't with Fort he was so hot i couldn't breath for most of the time. Also the trauma Sky has had it's just heartbreaking i cried for him and cheered for Pai when he took revenge on Sky's ex for him. He just ripped that dude's eye piercing just pulled it out like nothing.
I will take a moment of silence for my poor soul that has been in pain every time Boss and Fort were shirtless.
Overall maybe the drama did had some not so good things like the sound sometimes and the constant rain see what i did there rain/Rain. But the cinematography was good. Good acting amazing chemistry realy nice music good stories intense kiss/sex scenes and a beautiful ending the only thing that made me sad about the ending was Prapai's line about society and the fact that marriage was not allowed between same sex. That made me a little sad .
If i would re-watch this? Obviously the whole drama not just some scenes .
For me is a 10/10 wish it was longer actually but we will get another chance to see Boss and Noeul together in another drama maybe better than this one and maybe their chemistry and acting will be even better cuz i saw some comments on their acting although i didn't see anything wrong with their acting. Ok maybe they were a little awkward in the beginning but hey it's understandable. Everything needs time and they needed their time to accommodate with each other. The same goes for Fort and Peat.

LISTEN
I can't even begin to tell you how I feel about this show, This show is just perfect in all aspects....The love scenes are done so perfectly, Both set of couples have so much chemistry towards one another in real life and on screen. The connection these Payu and Rain have during there intimacy scenes are unmatched (especially Episode 6)
The love these two couple share with one another is just beautiful, My all time favorite scene is Ep 5 where Payu sings to Rain, and rain is just staring at him in love, it just melts my heart.
I also love the split couples in this, most shows have a side couple and even a third side couple but this show splits them so we have more time to see them one on one and the relationship flourish without seeing to much information.
