I really hope to see Smart and Boom acting together again in another well-written project because they shine the brightest when they’re together on screen. Their performances have left a huge impact on me, and as an international fan, I want them to know that their talent and hard work are deeply appreciated all around the world. I already miss them so much, and I’ll continue to support and love them always. Thank you for giving us this masterpiece—love you both forever!"
🥹💗😍😚💜🙏

Professional
Star-actor/up-comin-actor & luv. Honey sex scene: "IMPRESSIONIST", image w/music = Beautiful. But: 2wice, "beautiful dreamer" =Naw; cant win em all. Showrunner's great to get CUs thruout, esp Boom (perfect name). Ep 10=a not-treacly dream of deceased grandma almost makes it (or does): "Mary had a little lamb" after =Naw,again...fire the music-choice guy (and where was the showrunner....).Nice, well-done, perfect ML acting: some music choice flaws, repeat plot (Jin saves Akin); but very NICE and Sexy.

Ok, this series was amazing
As a reader of the manga and watcher of the anime (yeah, I had issues with the questionable red flag behavior in the original), I wasn't quite sure what to expect going into this. But oh my goodness, they really did the story justice. It's probably one of my favorite BLs now. The two leads chemistry was amazing, the writing was on point - I'll definitely watch this again. My only complaint was with the overly sappy music during some of the romantic scenes, but it didn't take away too much from the experience.Loved it! Wanna see more of this type of BL.

I love Smartboom still so much, even tho it's my biggest heartbreak and nightmare seeing these beautifull souls apart
Back to the drama, in the beginning the story is a little unclear, but when you look further it becomes clearer.
I really recommend it. Have fun watching!

Top Tier Acting!!!
This was by far one of the best shows I have seen in a really long time. I have not seen this well of acting in years! boom (Akins Character portrayed feelings unlike anyone I have seen. Smart (jin's characte) portrays anger so well so watch out hehe. The way this director, directed this entire masterpiece is unmatched. I wish I could give it a higher rating. the entire soundtrack for this series is amazing it matched every scene so well. I loved every shot that was filmed you could feel the intensity in the scene based on the camera angel or how it followed the actors. To say the least I loved everything about this show. I really don't have anything bad to say. I will truly miss this series!all my love to every single person who worked on this show. thank you for your hard work!! I can't wait to see more.Was this review helpful to you?
Boom's Tears Need Their Own Salary
I just finished rewatching this show for the first time since it aired live, and a second watch had as much of an impact as the first watch. I have never read the source material and so some things there might be clarified, but I am simply going off of the show. Do let me know if I need to tag this with spoilers.Firstly, the cast and actors were all great, I truly believed the roles they were all playing, but the real standout performance was Boom.
Everytime he was on screen I was floored by how well he immersed himself in Akin and made him a 3D character. He was baby, he was sweetheart, he was professional while breaking down, he was crying during break up sex, he was a drunk menace and a confident actor who knows he's the shit, he was also easily manipulated and hurt, and don't even get me started on episode 10 and all the scenes with grandma made me cry because he truly made me live it.
The chemistry with Smart was on point, but I feel like although Smart did an amazing job his character was just slightly less fleshed out and he felt a little, at times, a catalyst for Akin's story. I wished to know a bit more about him as a person, about any family he may have, did they support his career, did he have friends apart from Mildy and Touch, just little tidbits like that would have made the character a little more full and so allowed Smart to shine next to Boom.
I also wished to see a conversation about the breakup, I think that was important to their relationship and kind of got glossed over a little. However, the fact that I was so immersed in the story beginning to end, how Touch and Mildy prayed for someone to fill Jin's heart and give him purpose and meeting Akin made him have something to work towards, to stand equal to the person he admires and loves so, Jin deserves this happiness, as does Akin who was always in the limelight and never had someone of his own, all this pressure and expectations placed on him, he deserves to have someone support him whole heartedly, even if it's someone who's slightly immature and thinks he can do what he wants (which are all traits I love about Jin).
Overall, there was believable character building, a well fleshed out story, a satisfying ending, a whole plethora of emotions, and a really good soundtrack especially during the NC scenes. Thoroughly enjoyed it. And again, one last shout out to Boom, he had to cry so much and he did it all so well honestly I could watch him cry and smile and giggle and be arrogant all day every day.

Top Form
I never thought they'd do justice to one of my favorite BL anime/manga series, 'Dakaichi: I'm Being Harassed by the Sexiest Man of the Year' by Sakurabi Hashigo.
At first, I was hesitant to watch it because I wasn't sure if the leads would have good chemistry, and I didn't research the series further. While watching, I was amazed by how familiar it seemed. I remembered a BL anime I watched before that had a similar sound to 'Jun,' and later realized it was the same series because the BL anime featured a character named 'Junta.' I still didn't look up more information and just continued watching.
I didn't expect it to turn out so well. The acting, scenes, and chemistry between the leads were all great. The "Honey²" scene in episode 9 was my favorite, especially since episode 9 had a juicy break-up scene that felt so genuine and wasn't cringeworthy or forced. Akin's portrayal, particularly when he cried, was so good that I felt like crying too. The actors truly did justice to their roles. As for the honey scene, you'll just have to watch it for yourself – it's a must-see!
This series is a must-watch, and I'm not just saying that because it has high reviews. It's genuinely become one of my top series. I'm biased, but I also loved the anime version. As someone who's always on the lookout for a good series, I highly recommend not missing this one and watching it until the end. Hoping that Smart and Boom have another series 🥺😶

The two leading actors have superb acting skills and a fascinating plot
This is a Thai drama adapted from a famous Japanese manga. In order to make part of the content more realistic and logical, but without losing the meaning of the original content, the rhythm of the content is very appropriate, the soundtrack is very suitable for the current plot, and the acting of the two leading actors is also very attractive. When it is sweet, it is like honey, and when it is sad, it can make people shed tears. It is a very successful drama. I recommend it to othersWas this review helpful to you?
Top Form is an emotional triumph.
It’s rare to find a series that so effortlessly captures the quiet intensity of falling in love, the ache of uncertainty, and the beauty of unspoken connection. Jin and Akin’s story is told with breathtaking tenderness—brought to life by Smart Chisanupong and Boom Raweewit, whose performances are not just convincing but profoundly moving.Their chemistry is raw and organic, making every moment between them feel intimate and real. The writing is sharp yet subtle, exploring identity, expectations, and the pain of separation with grace. What begins as a simple connection slowly deepens into something unforgettable, and by the end, you’re left with both heartbreak and hope.
Top Form doesn’t try to be flashy—it chooses authenticity. And because of that, it leaves a lasting mark.

NC and emotional outpouring
Two people show natural feelings, and the cartoon super fit, and the image is also very beautiful. The eye play is very in place, and I can't help crying. The NC part gives me a very good feeling, and the beautiful picture is simply human body artMy favorite part is the bathroom and honey. Honey shows more skin but is not vulgar. Honey is just right. The hazy beauty of the bathroom, if there is no, also pokes my heart。Was this review helpful to you?

Bite Mark on My Hippocampus
Top Form The Series is one of those rare adaptations that doesn’t just work, it lingers. I went in expecting a straight-laced romantic drama and came out genuinely gasping. The performances left a permanent bite mark on my hippocampus, and honestly? No regrets.The writing keeps the romance grounded and organic, never forced, and at times it feels less like watching characters and more like watching real people fall in love. A huge part of that is Boom Raveewit Jirapongkanon as Akin- a performance so controlled, vulnerable, and devastatingly good that Episode 7 (Bite Marks) now lives rent-free in my head. I also want to give credit where it’s very much due; Smart Chisanupong Paungmanee did a solid job as Jin, especially considering this was his first lead role. There are moments where the difference in experience shows, but that’s only if I’m really nitpicking. Overall, his performance felt sincere and committed, and I genuinely appreciated the effort he brought to the role. Most importantly, he never left me blatantly wanting more, which for a first-time lead, is no small achievement at all.
Story wise I cannot fault the screenwriters and only commend them for adapting the source material as best as they could. The manga is....wild...to put it mildly, and the team did do a really good job at adapting it for the screen. I especially loved how the screenwriters deepened Akin’s arc by expanding on his relationship with his grandmother and portraying her as his inspiration, his best friend, his North Star. I also think it's endlessly adorable to see him, a grown-ass man- THE Akin, write letters to his grandmother telling her about the love he has found. It's showing us that he was always mush on the inside, just industry hardened around the edges.
What he writes to her still echoes within me:
“I’ve just realised that when we feel so much for someone, it makes our life so complicated… it’s uncontrollable and confusing.”
It’s such a mature, honest take on finding love later in life and it hits hard because it’s true. Jin's absolute devotion leads him to come into his own. You can see that the Akin you began the story with is not the exact one you end up with. Jin's unwavering love lets you see a part of Akin even he didn't know existed and we're left with the sense that all we need is to be understood and accepted, insecurities and all.
Overall, this is an exceptional series: believable chemistry, emotionally coherent character arcs, and performances firing on all cylinders. One of the best watches I’ve had in recent years.
Boom really is in his Top Form; and yes, I fully agree with him when he said: “I’m sorry but I ate Takato up.”
Don't miss this absolute gem of a series.
Boom Raveewit Jirapongkanon is a GIFT to this craft.
