Uma obra de arte
Quando comecei não tava dando muita bola, mas todo o elenco faz você se apaixonar super rápido, ce sente até como se estivesse lá com eles. O gl é super fofo, ótimo pra quem gosta de algo mais leve, clichê, mas sem muito exagero, faz você querer que os dias passem mais rápidos só pra ver o próximo episódio. E o final me agradou bastante. Recomendo com certeza.Was this review helpful to you?

I gave this series a 10 (charming) out of 10.
24 May 2024, I finished watching 23.5.Streaming on YouTube. {Why I watched it? Studio: GMMTV, GL} Thai with English subtitles [Dramedy, 🌈 ]
How can you not fall in love with Ongsa and Sun?! This show made me a follower of the actors, Milk and Love. This series is a comedy and a coming of age drama. The writing is lighthearted but doesn’t shy away from topics more serious. I appreciate how the focus is not primarily on sexuality but on personal growth. The acting, both leads and supporting, is great (I also follow the work of View, June, Ciizi and Earn. I’ve discovered GMMTV actors excel across genres). This has become a comfort show for me. I give this series a 10 (charming) out of 10.
Fon Kanittha Kwunyoo, who directed 23.5, was the Academy Award Nominee for writing and directing the movie KARMA (2015) and wrote and directed my favourite Thai series 10 YEARS TICKET which introduced me to View and June. She is definitely a director I will continue to follow.

So cute and worth to watch!!
Nothing much to say, but really love the characters. Milk and love as first main lead, I really am impress and Milk crying screens are so incredibly touch and she made my heart move. Love was so cute and pretty in the series and she was really a nice and kind girl. I really love how their relationship developed slowly and smoothly. Alin and Luna were also so great well played together in the show and you will see how cute and natural they are. Every characters have an interesting personality. Really enjoy it and I am sure this one won't make you disappoint.Was this review helpful to you?

Adorable Start to GMMTV's GL Journey
I can still remember the day GMMTV announced that MilkLove were getting their own GL. I wasn't watching it live (different timezones, I ended up waking up a little too late, RIP) but pressing play on the 23.5 pilot trailer and seeing Love bump into Milk into made me feel like I was going insane!! Two years later, we finally have the full 23.5 series and it's honestly as great as I imagined it would be. It was light and fluffy, the pacing was stellar, and the acting was on top. The Earth plot-line was well written for the first half of the show and OngsaSun's relationship was super cute for the middle of the show. I do have a bit of qualms with the later part of the show with the whole family dinner situation and the fallout of that, but I kind of expected that as this isn't my first GMMTV show (they have a pattern). The stand outs of the show for me were Ongsa and Aylin, they were super dorky and lovable while still being flawed and young and human (or alien!). All in all, it hurts a little bit to see such a negative reception of this show on this site, seeing as it was very clear from the beginning the tone this show wanted to go for, but to each their own I guess. 23.5, you will always have a special place in my heart.Was this review helpful to you?
Masterpiece made by women and for women.
I want to start by saying that I’m so happy that lesbians and wlw in general finally have something that was entirely made for us and is incredibly good quality in every aspect.When I see someone saying that the tropes and dynamics are ‘cliché’ I just wonder if they have consumed any sapphic media before, because yes, they might be cliché but ONLY in heterosexual/mlm media. Also, Milk, Love and the rest of the cast are talented actresses, meaning they give their own touch to the story, so please abandon that prejudice.
It makes me emotional to think how impactful it will be for young queer girls to see that it’s normal to have a crush, regardless of the gender of the person.
Seems like this series will also deal with topics like changes/adapting to a new environment, comphet, mental health like self esteem and expectations and a lot of things that people experience not only during high school but also every day of our lives. Just in the first episode they addressed bullying and the importance of never contributing and leaving on their own a person who’s being harassed.
Details like the osts being sung by sapphic artists, openly queer cast and crew members, and the sexualities being addressed and confirmed since the beginning (in the intro) just prove that it’s so easy to give sapphics the same things straight people have always had. The team behind this series did an amazing work and this will definitely mark a new era for gls and lesbian media in general.

Don't trust the bad reviews!
So, I finally watched it after being bombarded with negative reviews, and let me tell you, I couldn't disagree more with all the criticism. It was simply adorable, adorable, adorable! I can't promise you'll love it as much as I did, but don't let those bad reviews deter you from giving it a chance. Watch it and form your own opinion.Was this review helpful to you?
