Revamp the Undead Story Episode 8

Time Loops, Soulmate Choices, and a Vampire’s Vulnerability

Episode 8 of Revamp: The Undead Story dives into the metaphysical as Punn begins to remember Ramil before they ever met, hinting at a time manipulation twist that reframes their entire connection. Ramil’s ability to access Punn’s memories may have left echoes in the past, suggesting their bond isn’t just fate—it’s a choice made across timelines. Their intimate conversation is a standout, blending humor (“Why are you sighing so hard when you don’t even breathe?”) with emotional depth as they navigate trust and trauma. Meanwhile, tensions rise between Ciar and Pokpong, each believing they’re protecting their own kind. Methus gains an unexpected ally in his quest for the truth, and the mystery around the Hunters’ origins deepens. This episode is a masterclass in emotional storytelling, where soulmates aren’t destined—they’re chosen

thank f*ck for Mekhin, he is the reason Pokpong…

thank f*ck for Mekhin, he is the reason Pokpong survived & i get he has good intentions, but sorry Punn doesn't deserve to be forgiven. but i get that it's more so Pokpong will find some peace & can start to be the teen he is, not burdened by adult stuff cause of his self-centered brother ass-hat of a brother. *****************************************************************************also found it ironic that Ramil & his peace loving approach is the cause of this whole mess. i don't get people like him, so he punished his half-brother by banishing him??? but if he was evil & did something deserving of banishment, what about the new place he would be banished too? what about the innocents there?!? but i guess that isn't something that would bother Ramil's conscious. heck he wasn't that shook-up after all the vampire's got murdered at his coronation. so why would he care who Feratu hurts far from his eyes?!? the irony here that the mains r the bad-guys is laughable in a not funny way, who would've thunk it lol....

overall actually GOOD

Sort of disclaimer (?): I’ve seen all the hate being thrown to this series and, honestly, I don’t really get it. I kind of consider myself a BL veteran as I’ve been watching bls for basically a decade now (my roots lie in anime and evolved through different kinds and countries, eventually discovering Thailand with Sotus). What I think is really important to consider when you’re watching a bl is the company behind it. When you say that real good/masterpiece series are Kinnporsche or ITTSAY you’re right BUT, you’re talking about companies that care about “quality”. Most of the companies in the bl industry work for quality, not quantity. GMMTV is not one of these. GMM works for quantity, not quality. They own their own TV channel, so they constantly need new content. That means they usually work on a project for about three months, then move on to the next one. They make big money, sure, but that money gets split into much smaller budgets across many series.Having knowledge of each company’s kind of “philosophy” and rulebook you know what you’re gonna get yourself into with a serie. You can’t compare Revamp with Khemjira (just an example as it’s my current obsession and has officially become my fav serie) as they come from different companies that have different ways of working. You can compare Revamp to My Golden Blood.Revamp is a serie that has been on the works for a long time and is one of the very few first attempts at supernatural. Considering GMM’s usual budgeting and their ever-present dramatic elements, Revamp is actually a good series. It started off a bit cringey but evolved and developed, and I feel like saying it’s actually good. There surely is an evolution in the way vampire mythology is treated and the supernatural elements are portrayed compared to My Golden Blood. All of my considerations are framed within the GMMTV universe and way of working.That being said, THIS EPISODE LEFT ME SPEECHLESS…. NATACHAI MY BRO WHAT ARE YOU DOING HERE????Things I appreciated of this episode (and generally speaking of the series):- There is barely any unnecessary drama between the main couple. I appreciate this more mature take on relationship-development. It’s pretty embryonal as in different moments it can appear as more chaotic and fast-evolving but I see the evolution gmmtv is going through. Bonus points for the detail of white hair on the keychain plushie that matches Ramil’s (surely the series merch). - The whole ‘secret estranged half-brother’ storyline really surprised me. I was expecting there to be something like that ever since the first episode, as one of the details I first noticed was the erased name in the family book. I didn’t expect for it to come out now, I even sort of put it to the side thinking that it wouldn’t happen. Since it hadn’t been hinted at after that first book frame, I got to think it was Methas who caused the tragedy at the orphanage. I thought he might have had a rough time whilst his beloved vampiric Master was in the painting and ended up losing control. That, to me, justified his rigid, rule-obsessed nature. 
So about Dracul, at first I thought his appearance was too sudden and thrown out too late but after thinking about it, it actually makes sense. Dracul represents videogame’s final boss. He’s the last level to play, the final battle. It’s the missing piece that connects all the dots and will be the key piece to ending most of the storylines/plot-lines open. This is what you call a well-made plot twist. I was surprised it’s actually Dunk, as I never heard anything regarding him being casted but I might have been living under a shell during the time Revamp was in the works.Taking into consideration everything I said at the start of this very long review, one thing I didn’t appreciate today and haven’t really understood throughout the serie is the lack of consistency in the whole vampiric mythology/rules. Today I asked myself how is it possible for Ramil to be born a vampire if they -by nature- are basically dead? Their biology shouldn’t make them able to reproduce. The rules of this specific vampiric universe have not been stated clearly. I understand the whole supernatural universes are a new central-theme for gmmtv as they have used the elements before but not as main plot-lines, but still these are details that the viewer should be provided with first thing. There’s always room for improvement though, so thumbs up!Finally, here’s what I’m “calling” (as me and my bestie say, meaning what I think will happen):- Dracul either kills or hurts Jett in the final battle. I think Jett will turn against him once realized the truth and they will mostly all fight against Dracul. Why is he (my) first designated to die? He doesn’t have room for a redemption arc. It wouldn’t really makes sense for him to fight the final boss, say sorry and go home promising to be good and forget the past. Death fits his character more.- For as much as I wish Ciar ends up with Mekhin, he dies in the final battle. Mostly for the same reason as Jett. He doesn’t have any room for ‘redemption’. After a whole century living the way he did, he has his family back and he cares about them but he is alone. He doesn’t have any special bond and is actually a minor!enemy like character. He might be redemption himself upon death by saving Mekhin (I’m still sailing yes.), Ramil or even Punn, or completely oppositely he might die while trying to kill Pokpong (don’t ask me why but I had a feel about this). - I’m 99% sure we’re gonna get a happy ending for the main couple but I always leave the benefit of doubt. That 1% is mostly related to the fact that I don’t have any clues on how the whole ‘immortality VS mortality’ thing will be handled.
