This had everything - all the tropes without the cringe!
I’ve just binged watched the whole thing. It was such a satisfying ending!I’ve been on a Thai BL binge the past few weeks - and I’m just so lucky that quite a few shows are ending at the same time. So I’ve been living. I deffo need to get back to reality at this point.
This whole series was absolutely fantastic.

Best Storyline and the cast is 10/10
Its been a long time since I enjoyed a series overall. Good storyline, good acting, best cast from the main characters to the supporting characters..I even enjoyed the villains everyone was incredible and contributed to giving us this beautiful masterpiece, The visuals and music is good too... I wish we had more episodes though. I will miss the Reset family on mondays. Thank for giving us the best best show of 2025Was this review helpful to you?
Pond and peterpan held this together
Im marking this up slightly purely for pond and peterpan who were brilliant and looked amazing and i have not seen a pairing with so much chemistry and love on screen in a long time they sizzled for me , a shout out to new comers who played sam and narin they hopefully have a good future......unfortunately thats where it ends the acting from everone one else was so cringy , iv seen them in other series but dont know what the hell they were playing at in this one....had it not been for the main leads it would have ended on eps 3 good job the mains were good to carry this .Was this review helpful to you?
So sweet honey is dripping from my screen
This was sweetly romantic it made me look at my husband and want to kick him. 😁 Pond and Peter's acting is so damn good, love has never felt so lovely before. 2 people who would die for each other without any hesitation, who would always chose love above anything else, who would never have a single moment of doubt about each other... It's the kind of romance every girl (in my case) dreams of.The story was something else, not like I've seen before, but not overly complicated. The acting was sublime. I loved every second of this

Tough out the early episodes and you'll find a gem
This drama was awesome romance wise, but the writing was atrocious and too over the top. The villains were just too insane and unhuman like for me to take them seriously.The couple was so sweet though, lots of kisses and intimacy between them. Their love reminded me of those 'throughout all the galaxies, we are fated and will meet again and love each other' type stories; it just felt really transcendental and beautiful.
The directing early on was extremely off putting tho I was getting whiplash from how the plot was moving but finally got used to it. The romance itself I would rate as 9 but the writing and directing ruined a lot for me so reduced overall to 7.5-8.

So beautiful it made me cry!
I am an avid watcher of BL series, and Asían dramas in general. I’ve been moved to tears countless times but NEVER have I been moved because the whole series was so breathtakingly beautiful. The portrayal of the characters was amazing, I was completely captivated by Peterpan and Pond! They pulled me in from episode one and still haven’t let me go after I’ve finished watching! If you’re umming and arring about whether or not to watch this, do yourself a favor and watch it NOW! You won’t regret it! Definitely going in my rewatch list.Was this review helpful to you?
A Mustwatch
I just have to say, it was amazing. The actors were incredible, especially Pond and Peter, and the Villain was great as well. The cinematography, wardrobe, storyline, and plot were all 10 out of 10, even 100 out of 100! I truly don’t think anyone should miss the chance to watch this; it’s easily one of the best BLs of 2025.It’s a very mature and well-paced series with zero boring episodes. Honestly, I wish it had more than 10 episodes because I enjoyed every minute of it. We need to appreciate more BLs like this, ones with great acting, a solid plot, and real effort put into production.
And that chemistry between the leads? Off the charts. This is what you call chemistry. This is what you call acting. This is what you call a good BL. I genuinely hope Pond and Peter get cast together again; they deserve it.

#greatbutnotbest
I completely fell in love with Thada and Armin because of Pond and Peter. They have insane chemistry, and to be honest their acting more so Ponds' was what kept the show going. These two brought this drama to life. In short what I love in this drama is time-travel, the production, the MCs chemistry, sweet ML, Pond expressiveness, and Wenai & Janine.Overall, while the story started great and the reaction and difficulty with accepting the truth is understandable, but loose writing as story progresses, and, forced -a little too much- drama is not.
The iceberg to this titanic was *drum-rolls* Thiwthit. I think the character building for this guy was terrible- just another one dimensional, childish/moronic antagonist. It made the finale confrontation felt wayyyyy too dramatic and the whole thing looked terrible. Not sure what happened but the finales fall scene also felt illogical and unnecessary......*side-eye to writers*.
And the worst of all the annoying HASHTAG which was not even explained and Thada just knew.
Disappointed to see a drama with such good potential. But as others have stated " worth watching for the Pond-Peterpan !!".

I loved
This was the BL I liked the most from Thailand this year one of those rare moments when they get the casting and the actors' chemistry just right. The performances were really good. The only weak point, in my opinion, was the villain, who felt too much like a caricature. The plot follows that time-travel trope funny thing is, I usually don't like that kind of storyline, but that doesn't mean much; when the screenwriter is good, I end up enjoying and watching even stories I normally wouldn't. I thought the pacing was great not once did I find it boring. One of those rare moments when a BL series has an inspired writer.Was this review helpful to you?
An amazing series
I love this series so much. It weaves together great elements of romance, drama and suspense.I was a little skeptical about it, but after watching episode 1, I immediately saw the vision. The acting was fantastic, the storyline was a 10 and I'm still inlove with the ost.
The chemistry between Pond andPeterpan was undeniable and they brought depth and passion to their characters relationship. The cinematography was also stunning and added to the overall emotional impact of the storyline. The pacing could have been much better, but it was still great.
This drama deserves all the accolades for best thai drama of 2025🎉🎉

Binge watch worthy!
Pond for me is an actor who carries the character he plays like a second skin. He is very versatile and I absolutely support him for the fact that he is not paired with one partner and typecast into similar roles … he seems to be selecting roles that are multi faceted. I enjoyed watching him as wang in 180 degree longitude passes through us, someone with the innocence of youth and struggling with his age of awakening. Hill in fourever you, an emotionally complex role is again another one that was completely different from the others he had played prior, which led me to reset. And I was waiting for it to finish airing to binge watch it… and I am glad I did. Surprisingly, I watched the series for Peterpan/Tada as he was the one anchoring Ponds character Armin throughout the series. He gave context to Armin in the story… like he conveys from the beginning, he will be there to support Armin by his side to fulfill all that he desires… and in that he gave Armin… who had been betrayed by everyone, the one thing he had sought the most unbeknownst to himself, “unwavering love”.The director and all the key actors conveyed the story well… I keep in mind that though it’s not a short series, a lot of story was told in 10 episodes of over an hour each… so no unnecessary time was spent in plot development or typical tropes as fillers… editing was crisp… I didn’t have the urge to fast forward sections of the series considering I was binge watching. But some effort could have been put on the final climax involving thiwthit. All in all an excellent work from the cast and crew. So many scenes are framed so beautifully I kept wanting to know more about the cinematographer. NC scenes are tastefully done, just enough to give context to their passion and longing for each other. Pond and Peterpan’s chemistry is beautiful… BL or otherwise this kind of effortless chemistry makes stories so relatable, especially when it transcends lifetimes.

A Spectacular Series!
"You were my strength when I was weakYou were my voice when I couldn't speak
You were my eyes when I couldn't see
You saw the best there was in me
Lifted me up when I couldn't reach
You gave me faith 'cause you believed
I'm everything I am
Because you loved me, ooh baby"
This Celine Dion song sums up Thada and Armin's love story perfectly.
Normally this is where I warn you if this will be a long post, but I honestly have no idea if it will be. I will just be talking until I have said all I have to say about this spectacular series.
As I stated so many episodes ago this series is a 10 for me. If I could give it a rating higher than 10 I would. There are so many special 10 scenes in this one series. The production was well done; the budget was indeed put to good use.
Can we get a round of applause for Peterpan! The acting that he did was excellent. He moved hearts with his performance. The emotions he was able to bring to the script and by extension the screen was palpable. It is not just the way he delivered his lines, it is also the facial expressions to match moods of each scene; the sadness and tears to carry home the sense of loss and grief that is demanded from his character in the scenes that called for it. This amazing actor did not come to play!
Of course we cannot forget his other half, Pond. Pond represents so much as an independent actor. He is not a part of no established couple and so chooses different roles with different partners. He is an amazing actor whose craft has only developed with each role. He portrayed Armin's character beautifully and complimented Peterpan amazingly. I felt with his character, I understood his pain even though I have never experienced what his character experienced; this shows just how well he can reach through a screen and grip not just one's attention but also their mind and heart, dare I say demand them.
The chemistry Peterpan & Pond served us is not basic! It arrested you in your seat. It makes you feel the depth of their romance and love. I almost cannot see them beyond their characters. To put it bluntly, dem chemistry hot like ten fyah side! 🔥 🔥 🔥 🔥 🔥
Bom made for a very compelling villain. There is a scene in this finale that had me laughing; when he had Thada subdued on the roof and said they will wait for the arrival of the "side character" (Armin). I was like, DAMN! 🤣 🤣 🤣
As for the story itself, I loved every second of it. In these last episodes I was beginning to think that the writers have neglected the murder mystery. However, the way the writers tied everything together in the end with Bom's character Thiwithit was genius. We had all these suspects and speculations only for them to turn all that on its head. I said this in a previous post, but I have to say it again, the writers must be in love themselves because the romance that is written into this series is no joke! Thada is the greenest flag ever. The actions of service, the gifts, the words of affirmation, and the looks laid me out into a love struck mess. One would think I was the one falling in love. The dialogues between Thada and Armin carried so much weight. The different ways Armin professed that living a second life is all worth it because he got to love the love of his life. Not to mention the ways Thada professed his love for Armin.
There are two scenes in this finale that truly gripped me:
When Armin woke up in the hospital bed and looked over at Thada breaking down with grief. The way he called out to him had my heart in my throat. Out of all the times he called Thada's name this is the one that will stick with me.
The ending scene at the awards show. Armin declared his love boldly, acknowledging the love Thada has given him and showing such deep gratitude. In front of all those people he claimed Thada as the love of his life because a love as incredible as theirs deserve should have no limits, no shame, and should stand boldly in any space.
This series gave so many lessons about living life. It teaches about living life to the fullest unapologetically. You never know when your life will reach its end, so live and love to the fullest. It also teaches to make the most of second chances. It is not often we get second chances, so when they come about, grab onto them the true purpose of fulfilling that which you did not the first time. This goes beyond love. For instance if you missed an opportunity in your youth due to whatever reason and a second chance presents itself later in life, do not allow doubts about age to hold you back because you only live once; it is better to have tried and failed than to have never tried at all.
