Brought something new and intriguing to the table. A horror BL, say no more
While I am very much aware of the loopholes / drawbacks etc. with everything aside I personally enjoyed the show very much. A show is good when you randomly start thinking about it while being engaged in something else. That is what this BL did to me.The plot was intriguing, scary, it made me hold my breadth for a long time. The way the writer had put horror, mystery, black magic and romance in one series made me astonished. The pace was amazing. The ending could have been a lot more better as they did leave a lot of point unresolved. It was rushed but taking that into consideration the rest of the series and plot was really well made. The way the case slowly unresolved itself was much better than I expected. I loved how the romance is not the main focus of the series however the actors delivered solid chemistry and it is definitely makes a big part of the plot and integrated well with the whole horror theme. It is definitely on the scarier side but at the same time the plot managed to keep a suspense in it that didn't make the 13 episodes feel boring.
One of Change's best direction and cinematography. It wasn't over the top but it truly brought the scary element in it. There was a lot of hard work that went behind to create all the scenes. The dummies, prosthetic make up, props and everything else that made this drama a sold horror thriller, I want to give my kudos to the crew for arranging them. In behind the scenes I saw the cast going through different trainings like forensic equipment usage to familiarize themselves with everything. That's true dedication.
A big round of applause for the cast. I can see tremendous improvement in everybody. Pavel literally became Singha. I thought I will have a hard time getting used to Babe as Singha but he looked so hot and acted so well as the inspector. Pooh might need some more experience on the voice (Change please give him a voice coach), his expressions were definitely on point. Honestly in Pitbabe for mee PoohPavel's chemistry didn't stand out much but her I fell for them. Topten and Michael came so strong this time. I was so stunned with how much they were into their character throughout. Lee is such an underrated actor, I loved every scene with him. My first time seeing Otto and wow he absolutely killed his role. Rest of the cast also did fantastic job. The actress playing the female ghost was fantastic, deserves more appreciation.
I think this is definotely one of the most well made dramas with a great plot and acting. I wished the ending were better but it's Change so. Even with the rushed ending the world building, plot progressions and acting was so on point I gave it a 10/10.

Haunted by the Past, Saved by Connection
Goddess Bless You from Death is a thoughtfully crafted series that remains engaging from beginning to end. The story follows Thup, a young man burdened with the ability to see the dead, whose life takes a pivotal turn when he is drawn to a mysterious case. There, he encounters Singha, a pragmatic police inspector leading the investigation. Their partnership forms the emotional and narrative core of the series.What makes their dynamic particularly compelling is the contrast in their worldviews. Singha is grounded in logic and tangible evidence, relying solely on what he can prove, while Thup operates in a realm shaped by the supernatural, holding crucial insight into the case, yet struggling to make others believe him. This tension is handled effectively, creating both conflict and gradual understanding. Singha’s trust issues, hinted at early on, are later explored with satisfying depth, adding emotional weight to his character. Meanwhile, Thup’s desire to remain close to Singha, after realizing that his presence offers protection from the spirits that haunt him, adds a layer of vulnerability and dependency to their relationship.
The progression of their relationship is one of the show’s strongest elements. It unfolds naturally, moving through stages of mutual concern, jealousy, emotional pain, and ultimately love. The writers allow these developments to feel earned rather than forced, making their bond resonate on a deeper level.
The supporting cast also plays a significant role in enriching the narrative. Sey and Darin, who work as forensic specialists and share a complicated past as former partners, bring an additional emotional subplot that intertwines with the main investigation. Their ability to maintain professionalism despite unresolved feelings adds nuance, though their backstory could have benefited from further exploration. Mek, Singha’s trusted colleague, serves as an important bridge between the two leads. His willingness to listen to Thup, even when the situation seems implausible, helps foster trust and ultimately strengthens the central relationship.
King, however, is a more divisive character. While his motivations, balancing familial expectations and career ambitions, are understandable, his decisions often lead to frustration. His failure to communicate openly and his tendency to handle issues independently ultimately damage both his personal and professional relationships. Although his desire for redemption feels realistic, his delayed honesty and assumption that he could easily regain what he lost come across as presumptuous. That said, his arc does contribute to the overall drama and serves as a cautionary element within the story, illustrating the consequences of poor judgment and lack of transparency.
The series also handles its supernatural elements effectively, incorporating them into the narrative in a way that enhances both the mystery and emotional stakes. There are several well-executed jump scares that add tension without feeling excessive. However, certain plot points lack sufficient explanation, leaving some aspects, particularly the secondary character arcs, feeling underdeveloped. The storyline could have been more tightly constructed, with certain elements feeling superfluous and detracting from the overall narrative cohesion.
The reveal of the antagonists may feel somewhat predictable, as their identities become apparent early on. Nevertheless, the deeper motivations behind their actions provide an element of surprise that adds complexity to the storyline.
From a technical standpoint, the show excels in its cinematography. The visual composition and atmosphere significantly elevate key moments, enhancing both the emotional impact and the suspense. The soundtrack, while fitting, is less memorable and does not stand out as strongly as other elements of production.
Overall, Goddess Bless You from Death is an enjoyable and well-executed series that blends supernatural intrigue with emotional storytelling. Despite a few shortcomings in character development and predictability, its strong central relationship, solid performances, and engaging atmosphere make it a worthwhile watch.

Fucking underrated
Damn what a series. Fucking good series. Great story, great acting, great OST. Just series doesn't have some cheesy cringe moment then bl fans ignore those series. This series should be fucking popular but idk why people are not promoting story like this? Idk why this series is so underrated? If u see other bl series then this way much better than. Personally me and thee is worst series i ever watched and unnecessarily popular with basic cringe acting, basic story. I was traumatized after watching me and thee. Dropped after ep 5. So Goddess Bless from death deserve more love from BL fans. Good series always get less fans idk. And bad series get more love and praise. If story is good then i wish then some NC scene but this first series i am okay without any NC scene. Top tier series. 10000000/10Was this review helpful to you?
história muito criativa que te deixa querendo ver cada vez mais
sou uma pessoa que dificilmente consegue ficar presa em episódios de séries sem se entediar. além disso, quando começo um drama novo, involuntariamente, foco muito na parte do romance, pelo menos quando se trata de bls. mas esse aqui conseguiu me prender de forma que eu tinha que ver um capítulo após o outro e o enredo romântico acabou totalmente ofuscado pela criatividade do roteiro, a história é muito cativante e as atuações somam muito na boa experiência. me surpreendi bastante com o conjunto total da obra e como ela aborda a cultura tailandesa de forma tão interessante.Was this review helpful to you?

A Perfect Blend of Horror, Heart, and Outstanding Performances
A wonderful series, I'll miss waiting for Friday to see the next episode. A series with excellent plots. The make-up used for the “ghosts” is very well done; in fact, I must admit that I was scared quite a few times, but luckily, between one horror scene and another, we also had a breath of fresh air thanks to the love stories. The story between Thup and P'Singha is beautiful, perhaps a little unrealistic, but still wonderful. I really liked Lee in this series, I can't wait to see him again in another series, and maybe as the protagonist. Michael and TopTen, even though they are a secondary couple, did a wonderful job, making me emotional and happy for them. I did hate P'King, it's true, but luckily in the last few episodes he woke up and realised which side he was on. Pooh from Pit Babe has improved a lot in his acting and I'm really proud of him, keep it up.SPOILER ALERT
I had already realised for a while that Thup's father was behind everything and that he was Thup's father, but I didn't expect Bom at all. While I'm here, I must and want to congratulate Victor because he was magnificent in his role, especially in the final scene, which gave me goosebumps; WOW!

No bloody thanks
Horror no thanks! Skipped a few episodes and probably didn't finish it.I think it had potential if i was horror fan but i definitely couldn't watch this at all.
Overall it is not a good show for me personally. Not great but good. And I may But this is definitely a first in the realm of BLs. Even though it is not perfect, it does open a trailblazing path to a whole new world of shows in the Y industry.

The Bl that got me to watch and enjoy horror for the first time.
When I started this series I was drawn by ThupSingha chemistry and how beautiful they looked.Even from the beginning I enjoyed the teasing and how their love story developed slowly through the next episodes.The opening episode was very strong and interesting.Can we talk about how cute Thup was and his heterochromia.Singha was a marvel to stare at and his acting superb.
Whenever I looked at Thup's eyes I could tell from his fear that he was in danger.His eyes told it all.The fear,the sorrow,the joy and that's good acting.His little noises were also very cute and I found myself on his side all through the show.I wanted to protect him too.
The ghosts, sacrifices and rituals were all new to me and I enjoyed learning a lot about this in a refreshing and interactive way.The sound effects were spot on.I was super scared but I was excited to see what's next.
I like how this series went beyond romance to a very interesting and gripping plot.It went beyond the boundaries of just a bl.
We were all investigators trying to figure out the next reveal and this was fulfilling.I like how everything unfounded eventually and we got answers.This thriller was worth every minute I watched it.
In short or many words this series is the best I have seen and when it ended I felt I wouldn't find sth as satisfactory.Now I'm rewatching it coz I miss them

Strong premise, uneven execution — but the world they built is worth exploring
The chemistry between PoohPavel works — I believe what they're conveying on screen, even if they don't fully win me over as a couple personally. The premise itself is genuinely compelling: an orphan with extraordinary senses paired with a strictly rational thinker who dismisses anything occult, thrown together into a murder case stretching across decades, wrapped in temple rituals and ancient forces. There's real potential in that setup.The problem is that the series doesn't always manage to sustain it. It drags in places, and Pooh's character was — for me personally — exhausting in a way that actively made it harder to keep watching at times. Which is a shame, because the world this show builds is actually fascinating.
If you're drawn to supernatural mystery with a Thai cultural backdrop and don't mind some pacing issues, it's worth a look. Just maybe brace yourself for the lead.

Started off quite well, good script, enough eye candies, and gives you the jitters alright
I like that we are getting so many horror-suspense themed BL dramas these days....and this landed right on Halloween night, so I guess they timed it like that intentionally. Frankly, I wasn't expecting a lot from this one and started watching simply because I was intrigued by the synopsis and trailer earlier, but I actually ended up liking the first episode quite a bit.It started off really well...leaving out a few logical loopholes here and there, which us BL watchers are mostly seasoned to by now, its pretty well scripted, and believable...acting, cast, production values, make-up, sets, all of it is quite good too. I think the scares are pretty good too, comparing with other Thai BL shows.
While I haven't watch Pit Babe, I like the lead pair's chemistry in this one so far. Also, Pavel is looking delish as SIngha, and so is the guy who plays King.....it seems like Singha and King have some beef from how Singha was staring daggers....I have a hunch that King may be part of the bad guys.
All in all, I would say it's safe to watch.

A Beautiful Masterpiece
Complete honest review: The acting was truly exceptional, and every scene felt carefully executed with genuine emotion and depth. Every actor brought something memorable to the story, making the characters feel alive rather than simply written roles.PoohPavel once again proved why they are such an unforgettable duo. Their chemistry feels effortless and natural, never forced, which makes every interaction between them even more powerful. What makes them stand out is not only their romantic chemistry, but the way they communicate emotions through the smallest details — their eyes, expressions, silence, tension, vulnerability, and even the way they look at each other. You can genuinely feel every emotion they are trying to portray, which makes the connection between their characters incredibly moving and believable. They do not just act out scenes; they make you emotionally experience them with them.
The story itself was deeply immersive and emotionally gripping. Even though the genre is horror mostly but it pulled me into its world so naturally that I found myself completely invested in every moment, every conflict, and every emotional turn. The pacing, emotional build-up, and intensity kept the story engaging throughout, while still allowing important moments to breathe and leave an impact. It is the kind of series that makes you think about the characters and their emotions even after finishing an episode.
The cinematography and VFX were absolutely stunning. Every shot felt intentional and visually beautiful, enhancing the emotions and atmosphere of the story perfectly. The visuals were not only aesthetically pleasing but also helped strengthen the emotional weight of many scenes.

Anyway, good
Overall, the drama was pleasant enough and quite enjoyable, except for the sheer nonsense of the last two episodes, which in my opinion completely ruined an otherwise relatively good plot. Given that it's very difficult to make quality crime dramas (see, for example, the mess made with Dare You to Death), I particularly appreciated the script, the special effects, the ghost makeup, the religious and spiritual references, and the character of Atikun, which I thought was very well-crafted. For this reason alone, I'd give it an overall 7. I have a lot to say about the investigation, as well as the structuring of the couples. Given that I'm a very practical and realistic person, I found some parts of the investigation decidedly implausible and unlikely, and I really couldn't ignore the fact that Thup was taken literally everywhere. I understand it was necessary for the plot, but it's something I found truly absurd and senseless. In addition to the various plot holes, I repeat, things in the last few episodes were rushed too much without adequate time jumps and I didn't like that at all. As for the couples, I admit I didn't particularly enjoy them, nor was I particularly moved. Contrary to popular opinion, I think the actors playing Thup and Singha have no chemistry whatsoever, and I couldn't really relate to them on a romantic level. Thup's character was extremely boring in my opinion: static, impersonal, passive, and rather bland; paired with Singha, all fire, recklessness, and determination, he didn't really spark anything. Moreover, their interactions truly bordered on the banal and saccharine: corny, meaningless, without any kind of development. The second couple was even worse. Truly insignificant. But let's move on to what I can truly consider the best discovery I've made in recent months: the actor who plays King. That guy is truly talented, he undoubtedly has a lot to improve on, but if he keeps going like this, he truly has what it takes to embark on a first-rate career. I really enjoyed the psychological characterization of his character, the fact that he was torn between the desire to please his father and the will to do what was right, and I truly appreciated the evolution he went through throughout the series. I also found him very mature and conscientious in his desire to distance himself from Singha, well aware of the feelings he still inevitably harbored for him, and I must say I couldn't help but be very pleased with this choice. Overall, it wasn't bad, although I personally would have developed it in a completely different way, probably keeping the investigation partially, if not entirely, unchanged, but radically altering the couples and relationship dynamics. First of all, away with the sentimentality, more mature conversations, free of stereotypical banalities, moments of tension and fracture. This is what makes stories interesting. But I realize I was partly wrong too; fundamentally, I appreciate more mature BL shows, and this show, on the other hand, is aimed primarily at a teenage audience. Still, not bad.Was this review helpful to you?
Hooked Already
The first episode instantly pulls you in with its intriguing premise and impressive visual quality. The acting has definitely levelled up, adding depth to the story’s mysterious tone. It’s a strong start with great production value — I’m genuinely curious to see where the series goes from here.Was this review helpful to you?
