Head 2 Head (2025)

Maradona diciendo "Eh" por diez horas seguidas.

Realmente me gustó, no puedo negar que es entretenida y tiene una trama realmente interesante, el problema creo qué no supieron desarrollar bien la segunda pareja, Jerome y Jinn realmente crecieron como personajes.
Jerome se notó que por las visiones incluso había madurado de cierta manera ante los recuerdos y pensamientos del Jerome de otra realidad o del futuro, los cambios temporales llegan a afectar e incluso cambiar como es que han transcurrido las cosas, Jinn quien solo es el fin del porque Jerome está ahí con varias capas, incluso se entendia muchas cosas sobre él y reaccionaba de acuerdo a lo que estaba viviendom la dirección estubo bien y las actuaciónes igual, puedo rescatar sobre incluso los momentos de humor que fueron los mejores.

ahora sí con las quejas, lo que falló a mi parecer con los personajes principales no me gustó que al final terminara perdonando al señor poniéndole que se había alejado para protegerlos, entiendo que hay muchas maneras de hacerlo, pero no diciéndole a Jinn de ocho años que no es su padre, para después querer proclamar ese derecho inexistente de serlo, también debería de demostrar realmente qué se siente mal en vez de solo disculparse y pedir una oportunidad.
y hablando de personas que solo piden perdón, Van realmente es un personaje detestable sin realmente un transfondo que medio que al final te lo quieren poner cómo el pobrecito pero realmente no conectas con él, lo hacen mujeriego y qué lastima a Farm quién no ama ni lo hace, solo no quiere perderlo y cuando vio que eso podía pasar se obligó a hacerlo, es realmente detestable, hasta Mai le dijo en otras palabras que estaba siendo un pelotudo, hablando mal y pronto, Farm si se merecía a alguien mejor y todo el momento lastimero que querían ponerle sobre la muerte de sus padres (Uy si estamos rotos en llanto) como si eso justificara sus actitudes de verga antes, durante y después (Me ahogó con mi propia bronca) pecando de sinceridad ya en el último capítulo adelante sus escenas (Los amo SurfJava mi problema no es con ustedes, es con los personajes)

Mi voto es que es una buena serie por el SesKeen, el SurfJava y JJ. pero hasta ahí, seguro termina pasando sin pena ni gloria.

This series honestly sneaks up on you. What starts off feeling like sharp banter, rivalry, and chaos slowly turns into something way heavier and endearing. I didn't even realize when it happened- one moment I was entertained, the next I was deeply and emotionally invested. My only complaint is how short the episodes are and the occasional abrupt scene cuts which actually did not bother me as much, because JeromeJinn, they make it completely worth it.

Jerome and Jinn are pure chaos in the best way. They started off as rivals who were constantly at each other's throats- insults, glares, nonstop competition but let's be real, that was just them flirting in denial. Every argument, every petty moment, every attempt to one-up the other was just unresolved feelings screaming for attention. Their chemistry is insane. The trailer calls them each other's nightmare, but all I see is them being each other's world. These two walk into a room and the gravity literally shifts. Their entire world just... orbits around each other. Unintentionally, intentionally- doesn't matter. Whether they are racing, arguing, or simply existing in the same space, it's always them against each other and them with each other, basically always them together.

Spoilers Alert!!

What really elevates the story is how it handles the darker elements. The dreams, visions, and accidents don't exist just for shock value, they slowly change the tone of everything. There's this constant sense that something bad is coming, and J's decision to not tell Jinn becomes its own source of tension. I understand why he does it, but watching him carry that weight alone is painful. The fear is quiet, personal, and suffocating, which makes it hit harder than any dramatic twist. Also, I get why some people feel the dreams are repetitive but isn't that the entire point of the series? Every dream sequence builds on the last. They're not just repeating for the sake of it; they're accumulating. Each one adds a new layer, getting heavier, more serious, and disturbingly real.

I have a lot of favorite moments- like a lot, every episode it just adds up. If I had to mention one of my absolute top favorite then one is Jerome's realization. J admitting he never hated Jinn and that he does not want to forget about the diary- oh my god, that whole scene. The way it played out, the atmosphere, the tension, the way they looked at each other, every word he spoke... and especially the vision of the future that followed, where they softly held each other's hand in the air as they looked at each other- that felt like a promise, like something they didn't have to say out loud because it was already written between them and to top it all off, "Not a Crush?" playing in the background blended so perfectly with the moment- it was perfect. My heart genuinely could not handle it. It was raw, it was beautiful, it was them. Every single second of that moment just cemented why I am completely, hopelessly obsessed with this series.

Also, I cannot not mention the hospital scene after Jinn's head injury. It's painfully beautiful. J is drowning in guilt, convinced the accident is his fault, while Jinn sees it as life being unpredictable and refuses to let J carry the weight of fate itself. What breaks me is realizing Jinn’s biggest fear isn't death- it's J slowly destroying himself with guilt. Even the suggestion of breaking up isn't cruelty; it's desperation. And that kiss? Not romantic... pure panic. A wordless don't say that. Then the line, "But if something happens to me one day, I'll believe you did your best."
This... this has my heart. Jinn isn't asking J to stop caring- he's asking him to stop hurting himself. I have so many more favorite moments and scenes that if I start listing them, I might actually fill every single page of that diary- you know the one that was first Jinn’s and now belongs to Jerome >_<

And then there's FarmVan- a whole different flavor of emotional chaos. Van hijacks Farm's space, steals his snacks, takes his bed like it's his own. And Farm, my sweet, soft, painfully in love Farm. He lets him. Every. Single. Time. Their chemistry is explosive and so is the tension between them. Every glance, every touch, every little flirt makes my heart do somersaults. But here's the thing- Van's insecurity is real, and he's constantly sabotaging himself. He tries, at least with Farm but it's never enough to stop him from hurting Farm in the process. And Farm... my sweet, soft, endlessly patient Farm. He loves Van so fully it hurts.

Also, I never could hate Van. He made me furious, but he also made me care, and that balance is hard to pull off. I understood what he was doing and why he was doing it, even when I couldn't agree with his choices. And honestly, that's what makes this series so strong- it's incredibly consistent with its characters. No one suddenly acts a certain way just to push the plot forward. Every messy decision, every bad call, still feels rooted in who they are. Nothing feels out of character, and that's what makes all the emotional beats hit so much harder.

Also, shout out to Mai who has been third wheeling, actually no fifth wheeling so hard I am convinced he deserves financial compensation and also a partner at this point. He has really suffered enough. I adore his friendship with them. And while we're at it, I absolutely love the mums and their friendship too- warm, grounding, and quietly perfect.

And I am in love with the OST, especially "Turns Out It's You". I have had it on loop for days. The lines- "I told myself no, but turns out it's you. I told myself don't, but you are the one." that is literally J and Jinn in TWO LINES. It screams them. In fact the song bleeds them. Also, "Secret Crush" is just as good and this is J's POV. And "Not a Crush?" is Jinn's POV. I love all the osts including Friend Next Door and all those unknown background music which I still don't know the names of.

This series might not be perfect, and I am sure it has it's flaws, but for me, it's nothing short of perfect. It has a way of pulling me in and making every moment feel unforgettable. I'm so damn in love with this series. Highly Recommended!!
